Pretty day, and it _started_ that way. So I'm wearing silk and velvet. My clothing makes my skin happy. :) (no, I have no idea why nice days make me want to wear fun clothing. Perhaps because it gives me enough energy in the morning to _care_ about my clothing? And my idea of 'nice' includes weather warm enough for my fun clothing...)

I like getting introduced to other people's music. Mostly because there's no possible way for me to sift through all music, ever. So getting stuff other people have sifted through is pleasing, especially when I have at least some reason to believe that I will probably agree with their taste in music.

I continue to be intensely pleased to have met [livejournal.com profile] brynndragon.

I wait, hoping for a positive reply to my rental application.

Packing, packing, packing. I'm even packing around people visiting me (usually not while they're there, but both before and after their visits). Sheesh, I'm obsessive. :)

It's difficult to have a sense of how much stuff one has, until one packs it. I'm definitely going to have to reduce my stuff quotient when I do my year of US wandering, 'cause only some will be able to go _with_ me, and storage and shipping is expensive.

I really want the futon/couch that [livejournal.com profile] redjo and [livejournal.com profile] jirikido have. It's a couch and a bed, and it's a nice, firm mattress, which I don't usually associate with futons. But it'd be silly to buy it when I'm not going to want to bring it with me. So I won't!

Two days until Mirena!

I'm liking hearing birds when I'm outside. I always miss that in winter. Seeing them is good, too, of course. But hearing them is better. :) (ok, perhaps not better than seeing birds which are obviously having major amounts of fun in flight)

Me too! One of the best ways to get to know people. :)

I can't remember if you wanted the links or not, so feel free to delete this comment if you prefer :). This was the mattress: http://www.webfuton.com/mattresses/gemini.shtml (doesn't include the cover) and this is the frame: http://www.webfuton.com/frames/superez.shtml. I found their primer on futon construction very helpful, and it definitely led us to buying the exact right thing.

Oooh. I keep this for later, as I'm sure at some point it'll be a useful thing to know. :)

Silk and velvet?

I could live with that. :)

*grin* Yeah. I have clothing that pleases me greatly, texturally. I just don't wear it often enough!

Makes me purry, it does.

[nice day == nice clothes]

Because for the love of god, you don't need to dress usefully.  (Bundled up for cold, stripped down for hot.)  You can actually wear a nice skirt and nice top, sleeves or not, long or not, and wear a jacket and be okay.  Stupid extremist weather.

[music]

Dude, word.  I also listen to 90.3 during the morning commute, which is both good (new music that's nift!) and aggravating (standard "What's the naaame?!?" angst).  Hrm.

Anyways, I'll poke through and see what else I can recommend right now.

*curious*

*crosses cable*

[packing]

I'm fine, personally, with you packing whilst we hang out.  My socialising energy is still low enough that paying Particular Attention would be much.

[stuff amount]

Muthafucka yes.  Part of what I love about moving is being able to get rid of stuff, but it's still amazing how much stuff I'm left with.

[mirena]

Woo!

Oh! That, too, although to some extent the fact that I'm indoors most of the time at work makes this less applicable.

music: Hmm. Perhaps I shall investigate 90.3 - assuming I remember the number, of course. :)

Brynndragon: Just... very nifty. Startlingly so, really, since I had nearly no sense of her before meeting her. Similar level of 'oooh! Pretty brain' reaction as I had when I first met you, actually. :)

Packing: Yeah, I knew. Thus why I didn't feel all weird about packing while you were here last Sat. :) (ok, I felt a little weird, but not much) Incidentally, I appear to have no plans on May 21st, and nothing before evening on the 22nd. Feel like being kidnapped?

I actually tend to get rid of stuff _before_ I move, because it's easier and less rushed. But yes. :)

Agreed, she is an extremely nifty person. :D

Oh! Are you why I heard of her? :)

I have no idea. Your social crowd and hers probably have a nearly infinite number of intersections. :) But I might've mentioned her at some point. Or you might've seen her reply to my LJ.

Nearly infinite? *impressed*

And, I have no idea where I first found her. But, as she appears to be on OKCupid, that might be where. :)
