The Second Weekend in January
Jan. 11th, 2009 09:06 pmIs the time to go shopping for winter clothing. The reason is because, in a way comprehensible only to fashion designers, the third weekend of January is the weekend for putting out the spring fashions. Here in the frigid North, spring will not happen for another three or four months, but it's time for shorts to be in the stores -_- So the weekend before, all the sweaters are 50-80% off. I got three new (fuzzy) work shirts today. Yay!
Also, MW and I have continued on our Most Awesome Cleaning Scheme Ever, wherein thirty minutes every Sunday are spent cleaning my room. (Also, I make a sincere effort not to acquire stuff if I don't actually need it, which is harder than you might expect.) It goes very slowly, as we throw crap away, and by that I mean that a full work term of this only covered about a third of my room. But it goes. So I have a few hundred more square inches of floor visible now.
In other news, my family is apparently so astonishingly normal that we have been chosen to be an "average household" for determining TV veiwership. Or in other words, we get to wear little electronic things that will record any radio or TV in our vicinity and what is on, so the popularity of such things may be determined. Although my family is atypical in a lot of categories. I guess we can be a statistical outlier, or four.
MW brought home Kung Fu Panda. Dad's new name, because of this, is Panda. Dad=Panda. Panda=Dad.
See y'all when I have some fic to post.
