Things About Today Worth Mentioning

Went furniture shopping

Worked out
Read fantastic Martin/Molly Cabin Pressure/Sherlock crossover fic
Watched Benedict Cumberbatch's The Rattigan Enigma

Furniture Shopping

Is pretty much all I did today. Also had fun on tumblr. And was terrified of a lizard that is lurking somewhere in this apartment.

Back in Louisiana

Feeling rather horrible today. Today we drove from Dallas to Louisiana, finished listening to Cabin Pressure, shopped for furniture, and dropped a ton of stuff off at the new house. Now we're busy trying to decide on furniture and paint for the new house. Woohoo. I have a headache, a backache, a neckache, a stomachache, I'm getting temperature swings and keep blacking out. Time to go curl up and watch Doctor Who.

Driving Day

We drove from Colorado to Dallas, Texas, and are now in a hotel. I'm tired. In the car we listened to music and John Finnemore's Cabin Pressure, which is absolutely fantastic. Now it's time for sleep.

Moving Day

Today was completely exhausting because we moved a ton of stuff. I also got to see Olivia for a bit and go to dinner with Hannah, which was very nice. We're staying in a hotel tonight and then we're off to LA in the morning.

Blog Every Day In August?

"I think I want to try doing BEDA this year."
"But Moriah, you haven't updated your blog in an entire month, And all summer you've been horrible about posting."
"... Your point?"

Right. Conversations with myself aside, I really am going to try to blog every day in August. Even though I rather suck at this blogging thing. But I guess I'll begin by summarizing my summer so far.

Things I've Done This Summer
1. Watched Doctor Who - I've been putting off watching the last Rose episode for about a month now. I just don't want her to go!
2. Become addicted to tumblr - it's where I do my best fangirling, particularly of Sherlock. The Sherlock fandom on tumblr is ridiculously cracky, and I love it.
3. Been bored in Louisiana a lot - especially with Ariel gone to StarTalk at BYU.
4. Blitzkrieg'd a drive from Louisiana to Colorado in 17 hours with my mom and my college stuff - we took turns driving, listened to a lot of Cabin Pressure, and studied for my Music 101 final.
5. Painted Ariel's and my rooms in the Colorado house with Mr. Bingley and my mom - the upstairs of the Colorado house is now an homage to beige.
6. Ate a lot of Qdoba - Mom's become particularly fond of the vegetarian burritos.
7. Went to Lowe's a lot - usually for painter's tape.
8. Deathly Hallows Part 2 Midnight Premiere - went with a bunch of friends, had loads of fun, sobbed through the whole movie, and loved it.
9. Drove to Utah with Mom - 7.5 hours felt like nothing after doing 17 the week before!
10. Took Music 101 Midterm - did decently.
11. Hung out at BYU with Mom and her old Japanese professor - who is absolutely nuts, in a hilarious sort of way.
12. Picked up Ariel from StarTalk - she had a great time and I'm very glad to have her back.
13. Turned into a real person - when I became a legal adult. Party with extended family was completely nuts, but in a I-think-it-was-fun way. Lots of food.
14. Went to a family reunion - at which I was the oldest cousin of 30, including five babies. Spent a lot of time with Mom's sister's baby girl, Lily, who is the cutest little girl ever.
15. Took Music 101 Final - was frustrating and difficult. Don't know how I did yet.
16. Many fandom explosions - especially Sherlock.
17. Stayed up for a Pottermore account - and was successful.
18. Drove back to Colorado - introduced Ariel to Cabin Pressure.

That has been my summer so far! It's been crazy, hot, busy, hectic, insane, and I've actually quite enjoyed it!
