Well, I am making this post from a new house. Sorry for not making one sooner, the last week has been busy out the butt. Rather than moving on Sunday, we pretty much moved from last Wednesday to today.Before that, I only worked one day last week and it was fairly uneventful, and James and I had to go back to his house to watch Sammy and the other dogs. We caught Captain America after the first day of the semester, and oh my fucking lord. That Hydra bomber plane, the giant flying wing. I am so in love with it. I really have to not fall for fictional things like Hydra planes and the pink tiger striped tank in f(x)'s Hot Summer music video, because I'll never get to see them. ;^;
Anyway, we packed the house like mad on Friday and Saturday, but actually started taking stuff over when we got the keys on Wednesday. We had the Lee twins with us when we signed the lease, and they were hilarious. They both kept trying to get out of the glass door of the office and didn't get why they couldn't.
My dad helped out a lot. We moved our packed boxes and small furniture over to the new house before Friday night, and James and I spent our first night here on Saturday. My room was a big mess of boxes, but I managed to buy a real actual bed! No more sleeping on the giant beanbag or on the floor in the living room. I finally also got to buy Transformers sheets because
Sunday was so much less crazy. I expected it to be frantic hurried trips back and forth to get all of our stuff, but we had actually moved so much of it over already, there were only big things left. Our movers, James, his dad, and his uncle, along my my mom, sister, and I, got it done in less than an hour in the morning. We kept going back, because we had to get the cats and little miscellanious items that somehow got left. There are actually still things there that I have to get, a corkboard and a curtain, some drawings and other crap. The garage is another story. It has to go into storage until we can get it all sorted, which won't be for awhile since we're still unpacking here.
We also found out that James' middle school teacher lives in the apartment above ours! It's so weird, since when he taught at EKA, there was a maximum of like seven teachers at the school total. The chances of us ever seeing him again are literally like nothing. We live next to all sorts of yummy food places and right down the street from CSN, we're also next to a basketball court, and the swimming pool looks like so much fun! I can't wait to go down there for night swimming, it's my absolute favorite. n_n
I am also working hard to find stuff for James and I to cosplay Russia and Lithuania in time for AV this November. His head is really big so I'm trying to email all of the potential people I might buy his Russia wig from for their wig measurements. I'd hate to buy it and for it to look funny or not fit. I'm also actually having trouble finding a suitable Liet wig too. A shoulder length medium brown wig with light bangs should totally not be this hard to find, but so many have blonde highlights or shades of red blended in. I'm really picky about cosplay, especially with Hetalia, and wigs are the thing I nitpick the most. If I can't find the right wigs we just won't do it, but they've always been my absolute favorite characters and they were like my OTP for a while. If we both like cosplaying them at AV (and for a photoshoot at Mt. Charleston I have planned for February lololol) then maybe we'll go into their other outfits and stuff, and make it an ongoing thing. That would be super awesome. I do want to finish my Patchouli and Sari cosplays someday, though. -u-;;;
Yesterday I looked all over every Japanese auction site for Milky Planet in yellow. Nobody anywhere is selling the JSK!! When I didn't have enough money, I saw one on Mbok, and now that I do, someone bought it... It sucks. I absolutely will not buy a replica of one of my dream dresses, even though I can't find it. I'll just wait until one pops up and snag it first thing! Or, maybe I'll just cave and buy the lavender colorway. I really want the yellow though~! >o<
I'm also totally considering ordering the Aya Figma right now, because there aren't many TFs catching my eye in the stores (until the Prime toyline comesout ashoasjdoidj) and I could carry her around in my pocket if I ever get around to cosplaying her. I really like the way it looks, it would be the first not-robot toy I've bought in like. Forever. Actually, she'd be the first non-robot ever. It would make my shelf look weird... Wheeljack, Blurr, Hound, Soundwave, Drift, oh yeah and there's Aya too!
ooooh! love Russia and Lithuainia CX
