of a bookish sort.

I feel like everything I do is half-assed because there's just way too much to do, and not nearly enough time in which to accomplish it. Work, home, dreams, hobbies. I feel very stretched as of late. And this constant feeling of stress I've been carrying around lately is really starting to get old.

Bah, humbug.

And now I get to come in to work tomorrow. I've already done overtime this week. F this shizz.

I feel like I have a million things to catch up on; some not so important, others very much so. Like actually finishing those wedding thank you's I keep talking/stressing about (I've read varying accounts of etiquette regarding this. Some places say get it done in two months, others say you have up to a year). Folding all of the piles of laundry in my upstairs hallway. Unpacking more boxes. Shopping for Friendsgivingmas (by far the most important thing to do this week!). Not as important would include catching up on the bazillions of tv eps that I'm so behind on, or properly organzing the garage. Or acquiring some sort of a lawn mower as apparently we have to keep up the yard now. Also a hose, so I can water plants. Meh. 

I think I'm going to take some classes towards a technical writing & editing certificate, see how I like it. Maybe actually put my degree to some use, and get on some sort of a job path that will make me happier (and eventually better pay!). I don't know. I'm pretty well hating my job right now, but nothing is hiring, or the places that are require skills that I don't have. Either way, time to do something about it!

Also, randomly, I am SO EXCITED for "Cowboys vs. Aliens". The trailer looks pretty epic! Besides, I'm always a fan of watching Daniel Craig run around in tight pants.

Holy crap! We're home owners!

We are in process of moving in, and can't wait to have y'all over for Halloween.

I'm confused by all of this LJ/FB/Twitter cross posting thing. I know that it's Not Good, and I do have a DW accout and am wondering if I should switch over? Damn my not being especially net/tech/whatever savvy. Blah.

In other news: Mmmm, coffee.

In other other news: Supernatural Season 6 Premiere Party chez moi this coming Friday! Details to follow.

My Friday To-Do List:

1) Breakfast w/ friend (Yay! But dependent upon possible other meetings. Ugh.)
2) Go to King County recorder's office to request certified copies of our marriage certificate.
3) Go to Social Security office to request new SS card.
4) Meeting with mortgage guy and a realtor to discuss house buying options.
5) Work on Thank You's.
6) Work on storage unit? (hopefully!)

That doesn't include how I'm supposed to go to a yoga class later in the day, and how after that some of my family is coming over for dinner and viewings of "Charmed" (because my mom, my cousins and I love to get together twice a month-ish for Charmed Fridays!), or how I'm supposed to clean bathrooms.

Edit: #4 will now happen tomorrow on Tony's day off, but while I'm at work.

More stuff I forgot about:

7) Oil change & headlight replacement.

It's a glamorous life I lead these days!

Oh man, I'm looking forward to this show!

Last night, I dreamt that I was part of some sort of a Mars colonization project. It was totally epic. I just wish I could remember how epic.

Maybe introducing Tony to/re-watching BSG was the trigger?

I seem to have contained the chaos that is our condo more or less to the spare room. And I actually feel a lot better about the whole clutter thing, as our main living space now looks organized and feels like a living space. Bedroom still needs some help, but I can at least see the floor. Wedding presents and such are pretty nifty, except for running out of places to put things ages ago. It'll all work out. And I have grand plans of going through my storage unit tomorrow, so some things will be able to go there once I've got it all rearranged.

I started reading The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins several weeks ago. Still only 124 pages in. It reads quickly enough and is engaging, but my attention just seems to wander. I'm maybe 80 or so pages into Roger Zelazny's The Great Book of Amber, but haven't picked it up in three weeks. Maybe I'll start something completely different.

I had great plans of getting up and going to yoga this morning. Slept through it. I seem to be sleeping more, and having a harder time waking up early. Probably my body telling me I need to quit skipping yoga, and actually get back to the gym...heh. Whoops.

Also, how is summer almost over? I don't quite remember summer actually happening.

Also, when did I grow up and become an adult? Tony and I are crunching numbers with his mortgage guy to see if buying a house we've looked at a couple of times is actually feasible. Big changes afoot! But more on that later, once I actually know one way or another...
