Even if I technically don't because I have to write my resume and cover letter and send them out despite them being hugely overdue. And pack. And clean my room. Especially the bathroom because it's gross and I don't want my mom to see how long it's been since I've scrubbed out the toilet. And because my roommate's mom was in today to help her pack and she kept making comments about how she couldn't imagine how we could even use such a disgusting bathroom.

Given that I was likely to never see her again, I really should have spoken up re: our suitemate's unhelpfulness and the fact that it isn't that bad, but I'm a sissy when it comes to confrontation, so. I have bleach and toilet cleaner now, so I'm thinking that's how I'm going to spend tomorrow. Well, that and packing. And backing up my computer. And typing my damn resume already.

I had shit to do today, F!S. Why did you have to pick now to have another anonmeme? *sigh* I do wish it wasn't so easy to waste time on those things.

Anyway, went to see Iron Man 2 on Monday night with Roomie in the best movie theater ever (leather rolling chairs! Pizza and burgers and cookies and wine in the concessions! Actually being able to leave your seat without stepping on people's toes!). I'd heard mixed reviews beforehand but I ended up quite enjoying it, save for a few quibbling points: ( cut for spoilers )

In other media-consumption news, J, J, and R showed me the first two episodes of Baccano! and I have to say I'm a little torn. On the one hand, I really like the characters I've seen so far, am intrigued to learn their stories, and want to know what happens to them and why. On the other hand, I kind of want the rest of the series to be about Isaac and Miria. Because they are amazing. Although they will probably be even more fun if accompanied by Jacuzzi and Nice, so they have someone to panic at them.

Also the dub voice cast is excellent. Between Baccano! and Higurashi it is so wonderful to rediscover good anime dubbing. I'd forgotten it existed!

It occurs to me that not only do I have free time, but I can also finally finish all those series I've left off halfway! I can finish Umineko and Higurashi and Beast Wars and Shadow Raiders and Baccano! and catch up on Doctor Who and everything. I could write fic! Or draw! Or finally finish my beading project for help_haiti ! Life is good. :D

Except that I can't do any of that right now because I need to pack and do my resume aaagh. Or rather, I need to go to bed so I can get up early enough to do all that before Mom gets in, because I don't really want her seeing all my stuff unpacked and my bathroom all grody.

Yeah. I'll do that.

One final note: It is always extremely cheering to read a review on one of your fics telling you that they don't normally like the character or pairing you wrote but they liked your fic. I don't know why, but even though every review makes me smile I am always interested in hearing something like this.

Oh crap that's another thing I need to do, is answer reviews on my fics since there are some I haven't answered in months. aaaaaah.
