I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends....
Took Nija home! Now, after a bite to eat, I need to redouble packing efforts! Due to general health stuff, I haven't been doing much lately, but now with a more official date and all looming.... Time to haul ass!

nijawial, what are you doing this weekend? My folks want to take us furniture shopping.
I'm still reeling from the house. We celebrated last night with more Venture Bros - Nija is almost done with season 1! We made it up to episode 11. And I finally saw the second half of 'Are You There God, It's Me Dean' and saw 'Ice Station Impossible' again, which I haven't seen since the very first time I ever saw a single episode of Venture Bros.
It's been so long since so many good things were happening in my life. And I find it so amusing, because over a year ago, I was up in Jerome, and had a Tarot reading done. It's a local guy, and he doesn't charge, but asks for donations for the local humane society. And he's a nice guy, so we sat out in the cold and drizzle and wind and had readings done. And I remember I asked about my social life, and he said that it looked like I'd have more luck finding local friends online than I would trying to get out and meet people. And lo and behold, not too much later, I met Nija through![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
damned.
And now we're extremely close friends who have had so much fun together, and are getting a house together. That's the sort of serendipity that doesn't come along too often. It's a giant old internet, and a giant old world. And the odds of someone joining one LJ game, and playing a character who's canonically connected to another, and then finding out they live in the same area...it's astronomical. Especially when that area is the middle of nowhere.
Alright, I've gotten all sappy for long enough. ;) Time to start hauling more bags to the garage.
Go Team Venture!

And what good timing. With having to put my dog to sleep, my grandmother in Phoenix passing away, and having to take care of my own grandmother up here every weekend while I was struggling with school and instructors who never understood that I didn’t have my weekends to work on things…. You were the only person during this time who cheered me up and gave me good and happy things to look forward to. I consider myself truly blessed to have you (and of course Chrissy! <3) as my friend.

Also, I was packing, and came across all my gorgeous fantasy art. Mostly Amy Brown and Nene Thompson. I never even took them out of their protective packaging!

oooh! I love it when you find stuff like that. I need to get back to packing but I don't feel like it. I am such a slacker.
hm... I thought I commented but I guess it didn't go through.
YAY! Venture Brothers ICON! May I add it to my icons?

I wish I could come out sooner, but I think if I save up to come in January it would better, since there's a con, and yeah.
