zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurgh
So anxiety is something that always hits me very hard, and that's what's been up with me for the past few days. (Well, I also badly cut one of my index fingers at work, which has made typing a bit tough and way slow). I'm incredibly anxious about moving, and about really stupid stuff too. Like the possibility that my car explodes on the way and I lose everything, and have to use all of my funds to buy a new car to get out there. Or getting robbed. Or just underestimating how much money I needed in general, and ending up broke by May and unable to go to Fanime. Or a thousand other things. I just have to wait until my excitement overpowers my anxiety again.
This is my last week of full-time work at least, and next week I only work 17 hours. Hurrah for that at least. And my coworkers are all incredibly excited for me, which feels nice because I always felt that a lot of them couldn't give a shit about me one way or another.
Anyways, I just chilled out yesterday and filled out tax forms, and today I'm going to mail them out and try to get a few other odds-and-ends sorted out (like laundry, and sorting out my winter stuff from my summer stuff.) I also hope the Goodwill takes the yarn/fabric I don't want. Angie and I are going to eat at the downtown tonight, at Apollo Grill, which I always meant to eat at but never got around to XD
Also, I have not forgotten about Restless Heavens! Today and yesterday I've been reading A Thousand Miles of Wind, which is probably the most socio-political novel in the series, and taking down a shitload of notes. Already I found a few major errors in information I had started to assemble on the Wiki, so in April I'll be able to go back and revise, and obviously finish the rest of the major articles. While Tokyopop's translations are awesome to read while out and on the go, I recommend re-reading using the Eugene Woodbury translations, since he offers extremely helpful language and context notes for every chapter. More than anything, his resource has been the most helpful to me so far.
Also I've decided that Sou accidentally (...sort of) gets plagued with pineapple trees. Hee.

AS YOUR REWARD FOR READING THESE THINGS I WRITE, HAVE THE THREE SONGS I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO ON REPEAT CONSTANTLY FOR THE LAST WEEK.
Shark in the Water - VV Brown
Conventional Friend - Cartel
Deep South - Cartel (I wish this could be a Deon song, some of the lyrics are spot-on, but the LA LA I'M FROM THE DEEP SOUTH part doesn't fit at all for obvious reasons. However, I might make a Southern gentlemen character from it XD For either CoMi or Mystics of Tarot, depending.)
OKAY THAT'S ENOUGH FOR TODAY, NOW FOR DOING STUFF.
