Jun. 12th, 2008 09:11 pmUsually I'm more on top of things, but last week I had a fit of hysterical laughter, directed at myself.
As I was getting ready to leave for work, I thought to myself that I'd wear my moonstone earrings with the hook posts. When I came back from the bathroom, I spent two minutes searching for those earrings, which were not on my earring rack where they belonged, even knew for a fact that I'd seen them hanging there not five minutes earlier. Where could they have gotten to?! Obviously, my brother wasn't wearing them (B2 is the one with the pierced ears). After finally giving up, I chose a pair with straight posts and butterfly pins/whatever you call those, and had an unusually difficult time putting them in, but figured I was just getting them caught in my second and third earrings.
It was only during lunch, as I scratched at my earlobe, that I realised I was wearing two pairs of earrings. In the same holes.
*rolls eyes at herself* XD
On the moving front, I've scheduled movers, and they're even going to drop some boxes off tomorrow. Tomorrow I have to go to the fudousanya and pay the remainder of the Huge Pile Of Cash so that I can get the key and ask some relevant questions, such as, "Will there be curtains?" Officially, the lease starts on the 15th, and the movers are taking my stuff over on the 21st, so I have next week to:
- get appliances
- get some furniture (I need, as a bare minimum, some sort of table for my computer, and a kitchen table/chairs would be nice; a futon I can live without for a while, as I have an air mattress)
- get my alien registration card, since I (FINALLY!) have a proper visa
- call my current landlords to see how much of my deposit I can get back
- look into internet providers for my new place
- get cat supplies: food, litter box, some sort of scratching post
- start contacting banks/etc. back in Canada to change my address -- perhaps it would be easier just to give my parents'?
- go to the Embassy apartment and pack what I'm going to take with me to the new place (which means I won't have to buy any dishes/pots/pans/linens) and what will be going back to Canada and into storage this summer*
- walk at least once to/from the apartment from/to Kichijouji Station and whichever Inokashira line station is closest (I think it's Mitakadai) so that I know the route
- find out which bus will get me from Kichijouji Station to my new place
* Because G is heading back a year early. It actually works out better for me, because this way one of us will be in Canada sooner than expected, which means this whole divorce business will hopefully be over with quicker, though I get the feeling I'll probably have to prod G's ass along the whole way. :P At least if we get things settled before he leaves, I might not ever have to see him again!
