It's been a while....

...since I've written in my LJ. I feel bad; like I've neglected it. Not that anyone reads this, of course, but...

Anyway, lots of things have been happening lately. Doesn't it always seem that way? I've been packing up to move by the end of August. Moving a few miles away... not out of state or anything. (I think I'd die if I had to move out of state.) I really do. I don't ever want to leave NYC. I mean, permanently. Sure, I'd love to live in Japan for a while, and maybe London. But I think I'd want to come back to NYC in the long run. In fact, I don't even want to move the few miles I *am* moving. o.O* Grrr. It's a little more out of the way than I already am from the city... just add an extra half an hour to forty minutes of travel by (yucky!) bus. (I hate the bus, I much prefer the subway.)

But in any case... there's that. There's also Otakon coming up on August 10th. My costume's only half done. ::glares:: I'm stressing.

Not to mention the money I've been trying to raise/save in order to spend it at Otakon. Isn't that vaguely disturbing? Anyway, I've been putting up things on auction at ebay like there's no tomorrow. (And there isn't, practically.) So far, I've raised some pretty good money, but every little bit helps.

Come, good reader, bid on my auction. Help thyself to something thou probably need not... my ebay auctions.

On the bright side, I've been staying away from Chinatown, and therefore DDR. I have resisted spending money on playing that horrifyingly addicting game! Instead, minna-san will be glad to know that I spent my hard earned money on playing pool. Yes, a worthy recepticle for which money I should be saving has, instead, gone into. I have to admit, though, that you haven't played pool until you play pool with the G-boys. That 2-ball is the most frustrating...! (I won't even go into it.) And the 6--- beware the 6; Zechs apparently doesn't like being shot into the side pockets. He refuses!

And, to add to my list of stressful happenings... my boss has decided to close the store on Sundays. So I will have 6 less hours (of my whopping 17-hour week) with which to make money. Oh joy. And just before Otakon, for which I needed to make MORE money. I hate it when things like this work out so perfectly as to foil all your plans!!!!

::stressed::

Can you see the steam rising from my head? Yes? Hmm... I'll have to find a way to hide that. People will look at me strangely. Well, even more strangely than they already do. x_x
