☁ Fair warning- I'm probably going to be pretty scarce the next couple of weeks. I'll still be around a bit, but aside from Pride this weekend (yaaaaay), I'm going to be cleaning like a crazy person. Why? The higher ups at my complex have decided that they're going to do an inspection of the apartment on the 22nd. For those of you who don't know, I rent a room from my mother due to lack of other options for the time being (though I'm -constantly- looking for other arrangements, but that's SO not the point right now). My mother is psychotic. Part of this is that she hoards everything- she refuses to throw anything out, she won't let anybody else throw anything out, and she keeps buying shit. So needless to say, our apartment? Is a fucking disaster area because there's no place to put anything. Example- my dry groceries sit in the living room because there is literally no place to put them in the kitchen. NONE. And again, she won't let anybody throw anything away- including food that's expired. I wish I was joking. Hence Operation Clean All the Things commences.
Obviously, there's a ton of work to do, so right now I'm listing and tomorrow it's cleaning. We only found out about this a few hours ago, and we did clean some, so I don't feel too bad about the list-making bit. That and planning is good here. I don't want us to start a whole bunch of projects everywhere and end up making MORE of a mess- we don't have time for that bullshit. I'm taking this as an opportunity to do what I've always wanted to do- go through and THROW EVERYTHING THE HELL OUT. If psychobitch has a problem, it'll be like, "Do you want to keep living here or not?" So... while it sucks that we have so little time to do this (especially when I still don't feel that fantastic)... I'm overall trying to take this as a good thing. I just hope that we can do this in time. I hope my mother doesn't get in the way. I know she won't lift a god damn finger, but the least she could do is just stay the hell out of Kelly's and my way and let us do what we need to do. You know? I hope that they won't hold my mother's room against us, because I'm not touching her room, I don't care.
Oh yeah, and we need to figure out what to do with the cat plus the cat stuff for a few days, because technically we're not supposed to have her. Wonderful.
Christ, you guys, I'm SO freaking out, you have no idea. I've been putting on calmface for Kelly since we found out about this because she was flipping, but. UGH. I feel sick to my stomach. >_< Despite what I told Kelly, I'm not confident AT ALL that we can get this done in two weeks. Less than, even, because neither of us are going to be around this weekend, and I'm not sure when they're showing up on The Day. Could be first thing in the morning for all I know. *headdesk* Plus there's the cat to consider. *headdeskheaddeskheaddesk* But we have a plan. As long as we stick to the plan, hopefully it'll be alright. And neither of us are doing this on our own, so there's that. I'm just. Really trying to not totally freak. It's not working that well. Or at all. *FLAIL!*
☁ I totally didn't keep up with the online writing class I'd signed up for, but I saved everything for later and took the final exam (multiple choice on the material- I've always rocked at those :D), since that's due Friday. Got 100% and therefore earned my certificate for it since that's the only thing that counts. Yay. And now I know that online doesn't work for me. ^_^;;; Sad, but at least now there's not a question.
☁ New bras~ I'm actually clearly a little bit over a DDD, but not enough to move up to an F. It's nothing that a little maneuvering can't fix, so I'm not going to worry about it. Buy one get one half, so I got a bluish grey one and a brown one. So at least I have a couple of basic bras that fit. (It's so nice to consider something besides nude and black "basic"!) It's funny, changing back into one of the old ones after trying on the new size really hammered home for me exactly how much it really doesn't fit. It was just all of a sudden "Holy crap, how have I been wearing these all this time?" Also, I actually look more proportional now. I mean, I still have large breasts- obviously- but at least now they match the rest of me better instead of the boobs being pretty much everything you see. If I end up being in this size for a while, I might think about getting one or two more nice ones. We'll see what happens. I'm not spending a ton of money just to change sizes again, you know?
☁ Randomly I'm missing Kingdom Hearts and wanting to play it again. Unfortunately (or fortunately, I can't decide which), my copy is still out on loan. Urgh. I'm also randomly wanting to watch Junjou Romantica again- this is actually doable, since I have it and it's only 24 episodes I think. Probably shouldn't though, I have enough new stuff to watch as it is.
☁ Sadly? This is typical of New York politics- a fucking circus. It's almost as if politicians here aren't happy unless they're making a god damn spectacle of themselves. And people wonder why NY is such a mess? JFC. That being said: yes, he's a jackass, but as long as it doesn't affect his work, I don't see a problem. His personal life is absolutely none of my business. Any indiscretions are between him and his wife, bottom line. (Though seriously, you would think he would've learned from Bill Clinton that it's better to just fess up. Just saying.)
☁ Okay, I need to try to get some sleep- I have a long day of work and then cleaning ahead of me. Oh yeah, and there's going to be some nasty storms too when I'm going into work. Yaaay. Something tells me that the next couple of weeks are going to SUCK.
