Jul. 14th, 2012 01:31 pmI woke up this morning and it was actually sunny, and it wasn't raining. It was kind of amazing. Of course the sun was only out for a few minutes and it's been cloudy again since. But still, sun.
Been MIA, LJ/DW wise anyway, as I've been painting my bedroom this week. The same bedroom that we started decorating months ago. Since then we've been sleeping in a half scraped, half primer painted, no carpeted room and it was getting me down. I've been tempted to ask Kay to finish it off but at the beginning of the week I scraped together some get up and go and decided I started it I could damn well finish it. So as of now all the walls apart for behind the wardrobes are primed, the curtains are down and washed and the bookcases temporarily in the spare room. As a bonus all the books are now stacked on the windowsill as a make-shift curtain.
Next week I'll get the coloured paint then I can finally get the room finished, including getting my pictures back up. I've also been throwing stuff out, all my old Cult Times, TV Zone and Star Trek mags got recycled along with my Star Trek fact files, because no matter if it took ages to collect them they haven't been looked at for years. Therefore, nothing but clutter. I did spare a glance at my old hockey magazines/programmes, but couldn't part with those. They represent years following the Wasps and while they do take up a lot of space, they're staying for now.
After talking things over with
kopperblaze I've finally decided which story to run with for wave three, so I'll be trying to finish that this week. Also, how great has BBB been lately? I'm thrilled at all the Frank/Mikey stories that have been posted and while I have a huge to-read list it's a good problem to have.
Things in the garden are growing like crazy. The courgettes have flowers and the beets are huge. The tomatoes, beans, cucumber and spring onions are all flourishing and we have chillies ready to be picked. Now all we need is more sun so they continue to grow.
It's comic con this weekend and all the new Way bros pictures are delighting me. I'm loving seeing Gerard with his dark hair and poncho, and Mikey in his huge hat and old t-shirt. It's just really great to see them again, and I'm holding out hope that Mikey takes off that hat so I can see his hair. If you haven't seen MCR updates have all the pics so far, and there's the stalkerish video of the Way bros that shows yet again Mikey and his phone are bffs.
Teen Wolf remains all kinds of amazing. I watched the live stream interview with Steven Smith the other day and enjoyed it a lot. They're all adorable.
I haven't done a meme in forever but the one behind the cut took no effort at all so I went for it. Though the results aren't interesting in the slightest.
