*flop* well okay. So I'm moving back to my college town this weekend. I rent rooms in houses because I can't stand not having a kitchen. MUST BE ABLE TO COOK. Can NOT eat dorm food. :/

So frankly I am exhausted right now. This house - which I really like - has three floors. Guess where I am? Yep, third floor! And those are some STEEP stairs. So we got most of it in - there's a few boxes over at the storage locker. And, see, I inherited my Great-Grandmother's bedroom furniture. Which is real wood, no IKEA shit for me (no I can't say that, my desk and bookshelf are IKEA). So my bed, dresser, night stand and mirror all are really nice. BUT! That last drawer on the dresser has warped. And that made it too heavy for my mother and me! *Waaah* so it's in the garage :/ WHERE'S THE GUYS?? None in this house! BAH. And the step-dad needed to stay at the farm today (oookay, I can kinda understand that one)

Finished - or you know, said "enough stairs is enough" - and took the bike to get innertubes replaced and buy a new bike helmet. IT TOOK THE GUY LESS TIME TO REPLACE THE TIRES THAN IT DID FOR US TO MAKE IT THROUGH TOWN. Move-in day, I hate you! He didn't connect the front break back up though. So I wheel it back in and his coworker shouts at him from the back "ROOKIE!" A good amount of heckling occurred :P He reattached it so fast I didn't have a chance to see what he did! I realized I know nothing about bike upkeep. hmmm.

Came back to my dad's (there's still stuff here!). Cooked an omelette in my new pan (okay, side story: not a new pan. It was my dad's until yesterday. Which is when we went into this new restaurant supply store by his office. He's been looking for a smaller rolled steel pan for YEARS. He has a large one that is wok-like and older than me! He got a 10" pan for less than $7! So I got his 8" stainless steel pan, so he could make room! LOVE IT). And well yes, I geek out about quality kitchen equipment. Pans and knifes especially! As evidenced when Dad and I watched Jiro Dreams of Sushi. We both kept going "ooh! Look at those knifes!" and "What is that pan?" and "How did they cook that?" lol. we are such nerds.


And I'll leave you with a fannish vid rec: trelkez's The Adventure Harry Potter. Wait like 5 seconds for the bad-assery to start, mkay?! No seriously, I don't want to say much more!

filling out a sorting_elite application. because it keeps appearing on my radar. and I was too scared the first time I learned about (waaaay back when). Also; POTTERMORE.

So anyway, I'm also working on a fanmix for the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse . Multi-fandom, including Good Omens, Supernatural, Highlander, and the Bible. IT'S A GREAT CONCEPT!

And found while looking for songs on Pestilence:
