A couple important things I have failed to mention, and Shakespeare

[beowabbit]

So I think I haven’t actually mentioned this here: cathijosephine is moving in with me for a few months. Long story, but the short of it is that she’s renting out her condo and renting my spare room (which I’ve been meaning to get rented out for months and months!) for a while to save money towards the ultimate goal of moving up to New Hampshire onto darxus’s farm and being a farmer. There are some complicated feelings associated with her deferring the dream of moving up there for a little while, and with her renting out the condo she loves so much. But I am very excited about having her as a housemate.

Today we (darxus, mrf_arch, woodwardiocom, cathijosephine, and I, along with vast amounts of packing beforehand by xmelancholia) moved all the stuff to my house that’s coming, and the rest of them took the few big things that are going up to darxus’ place in New Hampshire up in woodwardiocom’s truck. It went much quicker than I was expecting! I didn’t think they’d be done by the time I had to take off.

And Chickenfinger’s here! I love that cat. She’s cowering in cathijosephine’s room right now; she hates travelling, and as you can imagine pretty much all of today was traumatic for her. But she’s doing OK and she’s so cute. I’m going to love having a cat around the house.

Another thing I have shamefully neglected to mention is the show that plumtreeblossom is directing. She’s directing one of the shows in Theatre@First’s summer one-act festival. (And surrealestate is the protagonist. I got to be rehearsal assistant — jobs in theatre are all about sleeping with the director! :-) It’s going to be so much fun! Y’all should come see it.

Thank you! Today is her first real day here, and it’s been great so far. Right now she is out planting sweet potatoes! Whee!
