Home, home on the range

Well, folks, back in ye olde KC now. My friend Vinnie (
rathershady) came up to Iowa City for a few days, during which we hung out and played a shitton of Marvel: Ultimate Alliance for the PS3. Then we drove down to Columbia, met up with his fiancee Courtney (
courters28), and the three of us headed up to KC. Since then, I've:
- Hung out a lot with my parents, which is nice;
- Eaten lunch with several of the old Women's Center folks (Vinnie and Courtney, Janie and Chris, Terre);
- Turned 24 (both Vin and Court came to my party, as did my parents, my older brother and my younger stepbrother);
- Eaten at just about every KC restaurant that I've been missing :9;
- Helped Vinnie and Courtney move from their apartments in Kansas City and Columbia respectively to their spacious new apartment in Columbia (of which I am truly envious, and which has cemented my determination to find an awesome two-bedroom to move into next summer);
- Set my mom up with my old laptop (I had to get a new battery and a network card for her so she can get wireless, but she's well set-up);
- And cleaned enough of my old room here at home to, tomorrow morning, set up the air conditioner Vinnie and Courtney have lent to us (which means I no longer have to either sleep in an uncomfortable recliner or stew in lack of air-conditionedness on my bed).
Also, during V&C's move, I discovered (through one of Vinnie's friends) that though Nintendo Wiis are scarce as hen's teeth in Iowa City, they lie thick on the ground in Columbia. So I am now the proud possessor of a Wii (as are Vinnie and Courtney).
lordtravis and
teachingmusic, I think y'all (and whoever else in the IC that wants to) need to come over for a Wii-playing party once I make it back up. :D
Anyway, I'd better sign off, since I have to get up semi-early tomorrow to put in the A/C (and also I think my baby brother's birthday party might be tomorrow? And I just realized ZOMG I HAVE NO PRESENT, AUGH).
Also, maybe it's just me, but I would TOTALLY read this book. (Taken from this page, linked by...SOMEONE on the flist.)
Also GOD BUT WHY IS MY PARENTS' COMPUTER SO SLOW ;_;
