What's Goin On...

Mood: Undeniably Happy
Tunes: Totally getting hooked on Portuguese "fado" music...mostly Dulce Pontes and Madredeus...current favorites are Pontes' "Lela", "Lagrima", and "Cancao do mar" (heard in the movie Primal Fear)...
Pages: Working on "Hitchhiker's Guide", "The Guns of the South" by Harry Turtledove, looking for more Steven Brust
Work: Can't really talk about anything I'm doing with work right now...but recently ran a festival and a wedding in TF...interesting and fun, to say the least

Sometimes you can just hear a song (or think about something or someone) and it makes you want to sit in your chair and spin in slow lazy circles. I love that feeling. Been getting it a lot lately. Lots of good tunes and good thoughts.

I have to highly suggest Dulce Pontes. I have no idea what she's saying, but it's gotta be good.

Moved back into my office, complete with new paint, new carpet, and a new arrangement. Now I just need to get everything put on the shelves and such.

As far as the apartment goes, Johnny's moved out, the carpets are clean, and today all the utilities should swap over to my name. Next phase is to start moving things upstairs and make sure I have everything I need. I know the bathroom up there needs a shower curtain, bathmat, and more storage at the very least. I'd also like to get a queen sized bed and, of course, I need furniture in the living room. The list grows.

Next week is GenCon. Excited, but also not sure how much fun I'll have because between my first month of paying the full rent on my own, the deposit on the apartment, and last month's part of the utilities, my reserves are a little low. I mean, I'm sure I'll have a blast, but I will just have to budget myself when I get there.
