Movin' on up
Jul. 18th, 2008 01:47 pmMan, Hellboy II rocked SO HARD. I love most of Guillermo del Toro's stuff, and it never fails to amaze me what he can do special effects-wise with so much less money than other directors. (The CGI looks better than your average Spider-Man movie, and you KNOW this was made for like fifty million less.)
Anyway, I've mostly been chilling lately and enjoying myself: I beat Mana Khemia (a fun alchemy RPG that you will enjoy if you like that sort of thing) and have moved on to start making some actual progress in Persona 3: Fes. I've also been reading Margaret Frazer's Dame Frevisse series of medieval mysteries, which are GREAT, and also have some cracks about Lydgate that I'm finding very cathartic (as he's the subject of my thrice-bedamned comps article). I've also been working on a second draft of my comps article (or more accurately, working as little as possible on it, but since it's due Tuesday I probably need to buckle down).
Also! Something that may be of interest to those of you who will/may be helping me move: the people who live there now have moved out (so,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
iowayehudit, if the folks in #9 are the ones who you kept thinking were moving, they're gone now), so I can move in whenever. However, assuming I don't want to pay prorated rent for this month, I have to wait till the 28th, which is no biggie for me. (In fact, the 28th is my birthday, so that's a pretty awesome birthday present...a shiny new apartment!)
rathershady and courters28, I'm sending you guys an e-mail seeing when you want to come up, but basically anytime at the end of the month is fine, since I have that entire period from the 28th to the 30th to move (I have to be out and have everything cleaned by noon on the 31st, but that shouldn't be a huge deal).
Also, now I can start working on getting utilities/etc. transferred over (and in the case of phone/internet, switching from Qwest to Mediacom so I can get phone, internet AND digital cable all together), and all that other crazy miscellaneous moving stuff.
...YAYYYYY NEW APARTMENT WHEEEEEE
Edit: Okay, so after conferral with Vinnie and Courtney, moving day is now scheduled for the 30th. So now that I have a date, anyone else want to sign up to help with the moving? (iowayehudit, are you still in? Also anyone else in the area who wants to show up will be welcome...the more people help, the fewer of the many boxes of books each will have to carry.)
I'm gonna see if I can get a U-Haul, and then everything will be good to go (well, aside from the billion boxes of books I still need to pack...and I've already packed SO MANY, GOD, WHY DO I HAVE SO MANY BOOKS).
