In The Middle Of The Night… You’re So Beautiful.

I am so antsy to get out of town that I’ve started counting down the days until Erik and I leave on the roadtrip. As of tomorrow, it’s 24 days. Before that day (August 20th) comes, I’ve got a lot that has to happen/be done/blahblahblah. And so, you get a list.

To Do Before The Trip:

dinner with Mike (July 26th – 4 pm-ish)
transfer all calendar information into new planner
book appointment for leg/bikini waxing (Peaches and Cream 482 2664 – week of August 13th)
book appointment for pedicure (or do it myself?)
hair appointment for trim and straightening (August 2nd – 2 pm)
getting wisdom teeth out (August 9th – 9.15 am) [days booked off: August 9th – 12th]
get campsite (for Hope – August 22nd), hostels (Nelson – August 21st; Kelowna – August 25th) booked for trip
organize clothes in dresser and closet
organize books/movies/cds on shelves
move dresser and bookshelves (maybe?); alternatively – find a new dresser with bigger/deeper drawers
finish organizing desk
bring old books to library to donate
write and mail cards/letters to: Emily, Kelly, Ashley
thank Erik profusely for: picking up the new hard drive that works marvelously; picking up new ink for my printer; loaning me his removable hard drive and sharing all 20000-some songs of his with me
pay Erik back for the ink!!!! ($80)
pay rent/internet for August (July 31st/August 1st)
decide what to bring for trip (clothes, books, etc.)

To say I’ve got plenty to do is about right. Possibly even an understatement. Especially since I’ve got three weeks and three days to do all/most of that stuff in.

Anyways, I started reading the new Harry Potter this afternoon. Tomorrow (after work/before dinner with Mike, on the bus while going to meet Mike, and in the evening after getting home from dinner) will be devoted to reading, reading and reading some more. In other news, my toes are freezing right now and I’m listening to an audiobook, because I can.

The roadtrip is pretty much organized and set. The only thing that really needs to be done is to book the campsite and hostels… And then go.

So, right, that’s about all I can think to say right now, except for one last thing: yesterday, when we were downtown, I almost got an airbrush tattoo of the Dark Mark from some awesome lady, but when I went to get it and she showed me, I decided it didn’t look nearly enough like the read Dark Mark. Manic Princess’s tattoo of the Dark Mark is perfect. If I ever got a Dark Mark, I’d print out a picture of hers and take it in.

Anyways, I should get going. Need to shower before bed and need to sleep a bunch. So… Yeah. That’s all. Have a good day tomorrow, folks.
