So, I wake up with cramps. Yay. Boo.
TJ flails around telling me Al's called and the relator is coming by to look at the house. We assume this means it needs to be cleaned up. So we tidy up (mostly TJ's room and the critter room). I decide, to take my mind off the cramps until the painkillers kick in, to FINALLY clean the foyer.
I'm down there sweeping and shit, I've got the front door open for once so I can take a grody carpet out to the garbage. And the kid next store says hi, asks how I am. We chat, he says his dad is offering to help out with getting the weeds down in the yard, since Al won't do it. I'm like, yeah! sure! any help is good help. We chat, the relator shows up and I show him around. He just needed to get an idea of the square footage and wasn't here more than three minutes, tops.
I get back to cleaning, another knock on the door. The older lady next door wants to talk to me! I'm popular today. We have a discussion about how Al won't take care of things and I explain our situation to her and such. She's really, really nice and I'm glad that -I- can maintain a friendly relationship with the neighbors, despite Al not being able to. She repeated the bit about her husband wanting to help US with the yard, not AL. And asked if she could have one of the flowers from the bush out front, because she likes flowers and wanted one for her yard. Yeah, no problem.
So, I got a bit more information about the neighbors and I'd much rather have a good relationship with them than whatever Al has.
But the foyer is clean! Yay!
And my cramps are mostly gone, too.
Now, to try and get more work done on the Tikicon conbook. D: I spent most of last night roleplaying and lulzing and making dollz of the fandom highschool crew. :D :D I'm such a fag.
ALSO
We watched the Director's Cut of Watchmen last night. The interrogation scene with Laurie? THAT is my canon Laurie. I was worried for a long time because I always felt I was playing her a little rougher around the edges than I should've been. Because in the theatrical cut, she's not QUITE a brutal and a bitch. But THAT? YES. I squealed with glee.
Also, the parts with her and Rorschach bitching? Amazing.
Good god, though. The Bluray quality is A-MAZ-ING.
Also, also. I got my free 10-pack of Moo business cards today. Oh, I thought the minicards were nice. So pretty and shiny. o3o
