before going to bed, i discovered the used by linking through from a facebook post between two cousins of mine when i thought that they were referring to iron fist, the makers of my super-duper awesome sweater that i keep going on about - mine's a slightly funkier version of this one.
in a sad attempt at humour i posted something remarkably inappropriate on tgtbt's page, and i've been regretting it ever since waking up this morning. feeling like a bit of a tit, actually.
i slept enough, i think, and launched out of bed at 11am to view some more apartments. today's were FAR more interesting and impressive than yesterday's, and quite a bit cheaper, too.
and that has made me suspicious.
after such a busy wake up, i arrived home to sleep a bit more (am i depressed? why am i so tired?) only to find gifts in the mailbox!
i love presents. and nobody picks them better than myself.
item one: nin - ghosts double album. sweet ^_^
item two required a visit to the post office, and the cute girl who works there (they have them even at the post-office?!) was quite flirtatious, only adding to the enthusiasm with which i grasped what was obviously my mighty mouse - the great space chase VHS.
my word, where did such wonderful technology come from?
i couldn't wipe the huge grin (a shiny piece of my childhood!) off my face the whole way to the printing store, where in front of the cute girl who works there (another one?) i opened the package and ordered a digitization. when i pulled out my wallet to pay the deposit she simply gushed with awe (the nightmare before christmas wallet rocks), and i told her that when i come back to pick up the dvd i'll bring her the girl's version (that which i accidentally bought first).
question: do i give her the wallet as a gift? or do i take monetary compensation?
our flatmate arrived, and seems amiable. i've taught him how to handle the downloads when i'm not around, now hopefully he'll stop disabling my internet connection.
i watched the first half of apocalypto, which is not at all what i expected and is long enough that i needed to pause to rest.
i made myself a cup of coffee, and although i've checked the coffee, the sugar and the milk i have no clue where the worms i found at the bottom of the mug came from - only i know just how paranoid that makes me. i don't want worms!
now to pay her grandparents a visit and deliver the nougat i brought from sa.
background sound for this post: the used - the bird and the worm. rather enjoyable.
a story about a man making his dreams come true... but with all the interesting bits left out.
