beansideMy god. Only 2 weeks til handfasting & vacation.
Aaaargh.
Okay. Now that I'm done with that, let's get on with it.
Weekend was pretty boring, aside from the mouse that seems to have invaded the house, more specifically, Jess' and my room. Oddly, this freaked me out severely. I didn't sleep particularly well either Friday night, nor Saturday, because the little bastard was doing gymnastics on the floor near my nightstand.
I discovered two things quite quickly. One, when it comes to mice, I'm a serious girly-girl. Two, my love for wildlife only extends as far as having one in my room. Then, it goes bye-bye. I was plotting traps and poison, and all sorts of shit. I didn't do any of it, but still. I've offered either of my cats a fresh salmon dinner if they off the little bastard, and I can't say I'll feel guilty about it. I've also set some humane traps, and if he ends up in one of them, I'll be more than happy to set him free outside. Away from my room.
Last night, I did manage to sleep, I think the cats drove him out into the front basement. Ew, again. But they have a better shot at getting him there, I think. We have too much low furniture for them to be effective hunters.
Other than that, have now read all three of the Artemis Fowl books, and can't reccommend them enough. Artemis is like a less hateful/spiteful Draco, so you get the bad boy thing without hating him. The third book ends badly, but at the same time, it opens up so many avenues for the fourth book that I can't say it's a bad thing.
This week, I have to have my car serviced in preparation for the big Chicago trip to spend time with the in-laws. I'm actually looking forward to the drive up. We're not pushing it, just making it a road trip. If we see something cool, we'll stop and check it out. It goes totally against my normal personality, but on vacation, it works.
We're staying with Jess' parents while we're there, so Jess doesn't have to deal with my anal searching for a perfect hotel. *grin* I drive her batty.
Okay, back to work...maybe tonight, we'll hit Michaels or AC Moore and look at decorations. I know Michaels has the citronella torch-candles on sale for $2, so I might pick up those. And maybe they'll have a cool altar cloth. I want something nice and pretty, dammit. Ooh, and maybe they'll have a head piece that doesn't look butt ugly on me.
Must remember to take the rings to full moon so that the coven can bless them on Saturday. *nod* Must remember to reply to Sonya's e-mail about what we can bring. Must get some work done. *nod*
Oddly, I seem to be past the stressy part of all this. Now, I've moved on to the pragmatic part. "I've got a dress, got rings, sent invites, and have my boquet, Jess' bouquet, and the cords. Anything else is just dressing." It'll get done when it gets done.
Aaaargh.

And no worries about the MK book. We'll still all be looking at it!
