updates

1) we are officially in escrow for awesome place! Escrow closes on or before 03/18/09!

2) ...i have not actually told my mom yet. /o\ the plan was to tell her today. we'll see how that goes.

3) my website is going down, because frankly, I need that money to pay for things like utilities/closing costs/comic con savings. I'm backing everything up (except the music, which is being deleted anyway), but if you want stuff off there, grab it now.

4) my doctor says I need more iron (I'm on a supplement for that at 975 mg per day), fiber, and to drink more fluids. I accidentally dropped one of my iron pills into my iced tea and it turned black and started tasting like metal. I'm a little o_O at putting that into my body. Oh well.

5) The giant statue for work arrived. It's pretty epic. 13 feet of bronze, WETA crafted, pissed off orc on a wolf. Our christmas gift last year was a miniature of the statue.

It's weird how we're made of water and metal, isn't it?

I am SO EXCITED FOR YOU about the house! \o/

Best of luck with the mom conversation. I'll be thinking of you.

The inspection is on Friday, so I'll see if I can take pictures.

And...yeah, the conversation with my mom went both better and worse than I expected.

If you need to talk about it, I can give you my number.

*cuddles* it is much appreciated, miss. I cried a bit yesterday, and then she tried to guilt trip me today and that made me mad so I'm less upset. Yay for failed manipulation!

Ooooooh. Awesome :D (On both counts. I kind of wish I could work for Blizz :x )

Hooray for escrow! That's really exciting. Good luck breaking the news to your mom.

I don't think I've ever said this on the internets before, but in re the orc riding a wolf, pics or it didn't happen!

I will take a picture today and put it up :)

1) Yay!

2) Good luck!

3) Will do.

4)Iron pills are icky. My family has a history of anemia.

5. That's AWESOME!

Apparently I'm kind of ridiculously anemic. Stupid minerals and their stupid deficiencies.

If you want to vent after talking to your mom, call me!

I cried all over Chris and then he made me dinner to make up for it :)

On the subject of cooking, how do you both eel about cooking? And what sort of appliances do you have? This question brought to you by one of my husbands almost amusing housewarming gift ideas.

ETA: On second thought no, nevermind, because while I adore you and Mr T that's a little above my price range.

*hugs* We like cooking! and uh. we're working on appliances. I think we have a wafflemaker.

*twirls you* I am mostly excited because now I have a place and you guys can come over! and uh. stuff. We have zombie games!

The inspection is on Friday, which is the last major hurdle before waiting for the loan to go through. I'm very excited.

I was wondering... where else is your fic other than at your website?

[identity profile] mimesere.livejournal.com 2009-02-25 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Most of the recent stuff is here: http://mimesere.livejournal.com/tag/fic

Because i'm lazy about updating official pages. /o\

[identity profile] vampyreranger.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I was mostly wondering about your awesome Gunn/Wes stuff.

[identity profile] mimesere.livejournal.com 2009-02-26 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
If it's not on the page and not under the tag, I either lost it in one of the multiple computer/website moves or it's buried somewhere in LJ and I'm too lazy to dig it up. Or it might be at UCSL.
