Freeeeeee!

Just got home from job #2, last night having been my last day at job #1. I'm tired, sore, and I think I've killed my back after a night of palletizing what, if the computers were right, was something like 2,000 boxes, yet this is the best day ever b/c I'm free from that place for good. I don't have to be at job #2 until midnight tonight, so I'm going to sleep the entire day if I feel like it, just for the novelty of it all. Ha.

The only bummer on my mood is this news that there will be no DVD sets available from VividCon this year. *sighs* It's really quite disappointing, b/c although a great many of these vids will be available online for download, some of them aren't, and even having a nice, clear video file to watch on the computer just isn't the same as being able to pop in the DVD and watch the vids on a much larger TV screen with better sound. I hope I can afford to make some of these cons eventually, b/c these days it seems that unless you actually go you end up missing out on a lot of stuff, no matter how many vids you download and discuss online.

( And just for kicks, that 2-Variable Intuition Test )

*leaves the computer DLing more vids and goes off to take a muscle relaxant and hit the sack*

*groggy wave*

Whoa, I know I said I intended to sleep all day, but I didn't think I'd actually do it. Heh. Can't remember the last time I had 10 hours of sleep all together.

Fanart rec: I absolutely must link all of you to cimmerianwillow's latest portrait - Hephaistion, the Jared Leto version. Stunning, that's really the best adjective for it.

Am watching Sci-Fi Friday, amongst a million other distractions; will post thoughts tomorrow when I can rewatch and gather my thoughts. Thus far, squee!

In other good news, my loan FINALLY went through today, so I'll be able to send off the visa application within the week. I'm now $18,500 in debt, but hey, still good news. The only big thing left is housing, but I've been told most emphatically by the Student Housing Office at UWB not to sign anything or agree to any deals before I get there and see the places in question. They'll help me find something and won't let me end up homeless or anything, but still, it's unnerving not to have it all settled yet.
