Whine flu madness!

Sick, so I got a bunch of movies. Check it:

House of 1000 Corpses

Devils Rejects

Houseparty 1, 2, 3, and 4

The Doors

Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood

Drive in Cult Classics v3 with 8 movies. Check it out sometime, some of them look preeeetty funny. I think I'm especially excited for The Pink Angels.

All for 50 bucks. Good deal!

Tyler didn't get much sleep last night, and I am sick as hell, so we passed out at 7pm and woke up at midnight. Watched House of 1000 Corpses, made some dinner. Then Tyler went back to sleep. He wanted to surprise me and make dinner for me before I got home from work, but I was already here since I came home early, and I was passed the f out when he got home. Apparently, I was laughing a lot in my sleep. Weird!

I feel terrible for missing all the shows and birthday celebrations tonight. I honestly intended to drag my sick ass out of bed, but when we woke up at midnight, it just wasn't going to happen. Now I'm attempting to kill it with rum.

Lisa has the swine flu, and it sounds like a few other friends might as well. My fever doesn't seem to be bad enough to think I have it, but I wasn't sure while I was at work. So, although I feel like total hell, I'm just glad I'm not as sick as the rest of you all. I hope everyone has a speedy recovery.

Everything has been great with Tyler's move. We unpacked all of his things and while I was working late, he cleaned some more and put up the remaining artwork we had left. We joked about having a rockstar bathroom, since we had some artwork of rockstars that needed to go up, and he actually did it. It looks awesome. Now, I just need to store and get rid of some more things, and we're set until we move again in February!

Attention to detail.

Operation: Ready Apartment For Tyler To Move In is well underway. I have completed phase one. Which is going through all of my closets and drawers to make space for him. I cannot believe the pile of things I am getting rid of.

I also got two more loads of laundry done, and packed all of my costumes for my meeting in LA aside from a few accessories. And then, there's the actual clothes I will have to bring.

My to do list feels pretty overwhelming right now. I'm hoping tomorrow, when I indulge myself in drinks after working a 7 day stretch, I will feel annoyed enough by my lack of proper internet connection to feel motivated enough to continue working on the list. The list that is left is as follows (not all of these are preparations for T, just things I need to do before I leave on Friday):

- Finish laundry

- Finish putting together costumes

- Finish packing for California

- Separate items to store, and items to give away.

- Bring items to parent's

- Clean out car

- Call Variations

- Clean living room

- Clean bathroom

- Clean dining room

- Clean kitchen

- Clean bedroom

- Visit Target Boutique

I went shopping today. Got myself a pair of cowboy boots, betsey watch/bracelet, and a betsey ring. It felt good.

Tyler and Bryan left Austin today. I was starting to get scared that he might get cold feet about moving back to MN and just stay in Austin. He never gave me any reason to have this fear, I'm just a natural worrier. I am VERY excited for all that is to come. Being apart was getting incredibly old.

What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.

Today begins the heavy task of decluttering my apartment and making room for Tyler to move in. Not to mention the deep cleaning and laundry that is well overdue. So far, I feel pretty productive. I cleared out 3/4 of a closet and a shelf in the bathroom closet for him. He has a lot of shoes, I'm hoping I gave him enough space. Once Halloween is over, I will have more room, as I can store that box at the 'rents. You would think, with 4 closets and 2 dressers, I would have an easier time of this. However, I am a bit of a pack rat, and I always assume I might need something later.

I still have to figure out where I'm going to clear out enough stuff to give him a drawer. This will be a daunting task, and I'm not sure I'm feeling like downsizing tonight any more than I already have.

I also have about 4-5 loads of laundry left to do. 2 down! Then there's the cleaning, uggggh. Obviously, living alone and rarely having visitors has not done wonders for my cleaning habits. This is why I miss my Nicollet apartment. There was so much in the way of storage and cabinets, everything had a rightful place, and I never had any mess. Also, and this may sound strange, the time I saw a cockroach kept me on my toes about ensuring the place was as clean as humanly possible...if you factor in a pug who shed like crazy.
