angelchildr at 10:31am on 10/08/2009Today I am wearing a black (just past) knee-length skirt, a red short-sleeved top, and my sandals. Which are sort of platformy and light tan. I have a couple necklaces-as-bracelets on, and my hair back in a braid. I feel that I look fairly decent. Score one for wearing skirts. :-D
Well, even though it was ungodly hot this weekend, I actually did things! Crazy, I know!
Saturday included switching rooms. We just renewed our lease, so this way each of us ends up getting a year in the big room. Things went pretty smoothly, though because (as mentioned before) the air conditioning doesn't reach back to the bedrooms, it was a sweaty, sweaty event. Ew. Many breaks to cool down in the living room. I still have things to do, like finding places for things, and hanging stuff on the walls, and doing laundry, and sorting through my giant pile of clothes to just get rid of the stuff that I haven't worn since we moved in. Some things like that make sense to save (like dresses), but there's plenty of things that I should just suck it up and give them away (or throw them away if it's things like old undies and socks). If I can do that by next Wednesday, I can take it up to my parents' and have them toss it in with their next batch of stuff for Purple Heart.
(For those not in-the-know, Purple Heart is like Goodwill, but they benefit Veterans of the Purple Heart. It's where my family gives their things to be donated. We are, surprisingly, sort of a big military family. Only a few of the cousins in this generation have served/are serving military time, but definitely more in generations past. I've told you about the governmental/military spies in my family, right? :-D)
Anyhoo. Sunday, we decided to be geeks, and went to Wizard World! Which is a fairly large comic convention just a little bit out of the city. We had (again, despite the heat) quite a good time! Bethy did a write-up of it, but I know her entry is locked, so here's my version!
( Wizard World! )
And that's pretty much it! Today it's back to work, and hoping that I don't have to pack any more this week for our art department move. We'll see how that goes. They're (finally!) supposed to move things on Friday(/Saturday or Monday?). They can't wait too much longer! Classes start the 24th, and they need to UNpack in the new space. :-D
Okay. Time to do some work now. What's everyone else up to lately?
