Okay.
So, originally tonight was going to involve a playdate. Which got canceled.
This is not a problem.
I decided that, rather than swallow my nerves and go to my Very First Playparty (hosted by my sweetie, thense the invite) I would stay in, get some work on the apartment done, and go to bed content in the knowledge that I no-longer had mirrors on my floor, a cupboard living in my bathtub or a tabletop unattached to its base.
Bah.
The universe, apparently, had other plans.
I have nothing in my tool box big enough to make a hole in the wall that will fit a wall anchor.
Since the cupboard and both mirrors all require these things, this is a problem. :-P
Ami_B: If you and your cordless drill want to help me with these home-improvement projects, I'd be absolutely delighted. (There's *definitely* tea in this for you, though I think you know I'd be offering that anyway. ;-)
So at this point, I'm thinking Screw This! I'm going to fill up a hotwater bottle and go to bed! Possibly wearing flannel! (Sorry. I'm also cold).
In other news, my weekend is shaping up to be a busy one.
Getting rid of the last of the boxes -- they're going to the recycle unless someone <*cough*>Idioglossia<*cough*> is able to come by and get them this weekend.
Also taking out the trash and the paper recycling (finally), thus freeing up a bunch of kitchen space. Hurrah!
Saturday evening is Sara's fundraiser (at La Petite Mort on Cumberland between... Clarence and Murray -- 7pm-10pm. Involves an art sale, live performances, and tastey vegan food. Cover = $10-$20. You should all come out and enjoy) and, before that, I am apparently watching my sister's dog while she cleans my mom's car (which will be full of dog hair, having just been used to retrieve said dog) and returns it to the south end, and then busses back to her place.
I'm hoping like hell this all won't take very long, given that she's expecting (famous last words) to arrive back in Ottawa at about 6pm.
On Sunday it looks like I will be skipping Pagan Brunch in favour of Takhys-is-in-Town brunch with the slashers crew. :-D Wheeeeeeeeeee!! (And I can *walk* to that location. Woohoo!!! :-D)
Note to self: Must get Witches' Gathering ticket. :-D
Hm. Also must make costume. I think I will be making a trip to VV (or fabric land) in the near future to hunt for fabric... Must make a seven-layered pleated skirt, for a start. Yeak!
Perhaps muslin and Rit Dye are in order?
We'll see what I can dig up. :-)
Anyway. Bed for me right now.
