*muffled screams* only ninety two days to go…
My mum offered to buy me an outfit from Lane Bryant while we were out shopping for an immersion blender and I fulfilled my life dream of getting a snake print skirt. The sweater is really nice too, super soft, and who can complain about the bright green? The tights are knit, which is lovely, and I got new panties because why not.
My brother is making an unexpected trip back home, so I might not be on much today since I’m cooking him a nice meal. Making an appetizer platter for dinner and I might toss together a dessert depending on how I feel.
I need to ts ‘empty chairs at empty tables’ to be honest every time I see/hear it I just get emotionally devastated.
I feel like creating an unnecessary archive of every film I have ever watched for personal reference, which may include having to re-watch like a hundred films that I am unsure whether or not I have seen. I don’t know why, but I feel like I could use a handy guide for this shit. Maybe a table that can be organized alphabetically, by date, and by country of origin. Possibly with a green/yellow/red background scheme for general consensus.
My back hurts and my sleep schedule’s out of whack and I just spent the past five hours watching Legally Blonde and But I’m A Cheerleader! and Mean Girls. I’m like a gallon of ice cream away from a stereotype, but I’m kind of craving some Hagen-Dasz and I have to do a bunch of peer grading assignments today and am past the point of caring.
edit: Found out Cheetah Girls is on Netflix.
Doing some work on Coursera to fill the time until I can return to Canada.
Link to my profile in the title. If we’re in any of the same course, message me and we’ll chat about them. Skype over our homework questions and discuss the readings, or whatever.
#coursera #online education #personal #I enjoy learning and I'm not likely to find a job at this time of year that isn't long-term but I could be back in Vancouver within a few... #... months and I can't commit to anything long term in the States until I get some idea of how long this'll take
the husband is leaving on monday morning, since he can’t stay here for more than a couple of months at a time. don’t mind me if i just throw myself into a writing project or something to ignore the separation. tumblog may devolve into text posts about characters or something with only occasional fandom reblogs. helps me not think about it. unfollow now if you give no fucks about my writing or politics or linguistics.
I got my hair cut today, and we did kitchen/Thanksgiving shopping. Got a new thermometer for the turkey, one of those nice electric ones that beeps when it’s done, and we got a bunch of herbs, spices, and basic ingredients and veggies. :) My mum also bought me a couple of teas - pumpkin spice and vanilla almond - for my dinner with friends next week (my mum is ordering us pizza, but I bought a bunch of jams and butter and margarine and stuff to make sandwiches to fit the tea theme a bit better - also one of my friends is vegan, so I need to feed him something).
