i had a very long, detailed, and strange dream about my ex last night. Then I mostly forgot about it until I lay down again, when it came rushing back to me. we did a lot of walking on hilly streets and in snow in the dream, and my legs started aching the second before my brain remembered the details. bodies and minds are SO BIZARRE.
I'm finally feeling really settled in my new place. Decorating for christmas helped a lot with that, mostly, I think, because in order to do so, I had to move the chair I want to get rid of out of the corner, so now I can't see it when I'm sitting on the sofa. It opens up the whole room. The chair is very comfortable, but it was literally my only (non-desk-chair) seating the whole time I lived in the east bay, and I think my brain associates it with that time of my life. it was not a great time.
What I really must do is put the chair up on craigslist free and get it OUT of here, and not just into a different corner where I don't have to deal with it. I hate having strangers come to my house, though. Why didn't I get rid of it before I moved, when i was still on the ground floor, and was going to be moving somewhere else anyway?
My kitchenaid mixer continues to be the best housewarming present I could have ever bought myself. I've been making bread, and made three kinds of cookies the other day, and just the sound of yeasted dough kneading away in there makes me smile. this evening I made multi-grain bread with white, whole wheat, cornmeal, and steel-cut oats. it was so good I never wanted to stop eating it fresh out of the oven.
and lo, making this post made me finally get it together and post on craigslist. may tomorrow be the last day that I have that chair in my apartment.
and while I have you here, one last thing. If you've ever thought you might want to try out a fancon, and north america is within your travelling reach, now is the time to check out Wincon. If you've been with me any time at all, you know Wincon is one of my favorite weekends of the whole year. and this year we need more attendees to keep it going. Please check out Wincon's Indiegogo page and get a weekend pass. or pick yourself up some awesome fannish loot. It really is an amazing time, with amazing people. And it's an amazing fandom tradition, and I can't bear to think of losing it.
