crowyhead which was fun and stuff. Her new apartment is simply faboo! The podmobile has had necessary system adjustments made, though now the rear defogger now is non-functioning. I visited my oldest friend whilst I was in MA, maybe I'll post more about that later. I've been thinking deep thoughts, some brought on by that, some by other things.
I've been painting big theatrical things, which has been a fun & tiring diversion. Cinderella's castle looks distinctly sci-fi inspired, but I doubt many children will think too hard about it or say something like, "That belongs in 'The Last Starfighter', not Cinderella!!! The artist is a big fake poseur!!!" so it's all good. So far I've left a distinctly Super Mario-esque happy cloud in it too. We'll see if that lasts. I've also stopped saying, "Wow, that looks HIDEOUS!!!", which is an obvious improvement as well. It's not hideous really, and the woods I'd painted are on the back of the flats, which is pretty funny to me.
My house still isn't unpacked. Hardly a huge surprise, given that I've been out more than I've been in. I did take a mental health day last week, but oddly got very little done that day. Well, except have dinner with
nanne, actually. I believe it'll be done soon though. Really. Really I do. Um, if I get around to it, really. Oh! But there's a new baby tree out with the others (the coffee trees & the rubber tree), a lemon tree, no less. So one day I'll be able to make a cup of lemonade as well as a pot of coffee. It'll probably be a while, the lemon tree is only 5 inches tall. Anyway, I'm thinking of having a small party on the 20th of this month, so I guess I have to really be unpacked by then.
Saw "The Order" in NYC with
jennywrenn on Friday. I enjoyed it, though I had a hard time with Buckaroo Banzai as a Cardinal. The guy who played William Eden though, mmmn. Tasty. Saw what was coming not too far into the film, but I still enjoyed how it played out, for the most part. Anyway, things are going, going, going, rolling along as usual. Now I must roll with them. Ow, rocks on the ground. Oh, nevermind... ;)
