Jan. 4th, 2010 08:38 pmFirst of all, Happy new year, flisters! Hope it's been a decent one so far. (Hard to tell just 4 days in, maybe? hehehehehe)
I am off on vacation this week (HAHAHA SUCKERS!! I mean, ... no, I really do mean HAHAHA SUCKERS!) so my plan is to do some serious cleaning. I know I'm not the neatest person in the land, nor am I the messiest, but between preparing for novelling, actually novelling, and then working my butt off for the last three months, the state of my apartment is just awful. I hate walking in the kitchen, as I have about a square foot of counter space PERIOD left. My bedroom needs work. The living room was at least tidied a little more recently, but it still needs more.
Today, starting around oh, 6pm (ahhhh I love vacation days...), I decided to clean off the table (in preparation to start work on a new corset, once I locate the pattern...), and went through the two boxes that have been beneath it since I moved in. In them, I found:
- a lot of fannish things from my early days as a J-rock fangull (more on this below)
- old letters from my first boyfriend, one of them mis-dated 1993 (he referenced Jurassic Park in it, and I was also pretty sure I hadn't been dating him when I was twelve. You know what, more on this below too)
- old letters from the boyfriend I had in high school, that I met on the internet. I read about a paragraph and put it in the "to shred" pile. Eek.
- old letters from other fanpeople, including Morgan, Elfy and Shilo.
- an old letter (page 1 of at least 2, sadly) from a Japanese penpal one of my friends in Calgary hooked me up with while she was teaching in Japan. In 1998.
- my Irish dance gilles
( J-rock 4 lyfe. And some last-decade-reflection too. )
( of old boyfriends and my asexuality, let me show you it )
And now that I've written all that, I have no idea at all what I was saying. Gonna find something to eat and go back to pattern hunting and possibly fanfic-writing :)
2010 is gonna be an awesome year.
