1) Every spring I get excited when it's finally warm enough to have the windows open... and then every spring I remember why every fall I'm psyched when we get to shut the windows, because suddenly I can hear everything that's going on in the whole neighborhood. Dear lady who every night at 10 pm for the past three years has called, "Kitty! Kitty!" for fifteen minutes... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NAME YOUR CAT.

Anyway, the house next door is only about five feet away from my bedroom window, so I almost always have the blinds closed in there. But last weekend it was really hot, so on Saturday night around 1, I was in my room reading with the light on, but I had my window open to get a breeze, and the blinds up so as not to inhibit the breeze. From where the head of my bed is, I couldn't see anything out the window, but it was open. Aaaaaand then I hear this dude moaning, and this lady shushing him.

Yeah, the couple next door was having sex, and shushing each other because it must have been very apparent that MY OPEN WINDOW WAS RIGHT THERE AND I COULD HEAR EVERYTHING. I mean, on the one hand, I appreciate the shushing because I didn't want to hear that, but on the other hand, them being totally AWARE I WAS THERE was almost creepier. Basically, this was my face )

2) We don't have furniture in our living room anymore. The couch went back out the window from whence it came (we videotaped it going out the window this time, so a post about that will be forthcoming -- stay sharp, internet). So basically for the next month before we both move, being in the living room is like CAMPING. By which I mean really uncomfortable -- we put a futon mattress on the floor, it's pretty hilarious.

Anyway. So all that to say that this morning when my roommate and her boyfriend walked in, I was sitting on a futon on the floor in the middle of the living room crosslegged in my pajamas, eating cereal out of a bowl and watching the Disney channel, as you do... when you're eight.

JONAS PREMIERE! And leaked episode 2. )

3) Speaking of the Jonas Brothers, if you want an awesome introduction, you need to check these out:

4) Apparently I'm also going to do all my super old, super out-dated TV catch-up now. God, why do I never post anymore?

5) Life! )

6) The Office )

7) I really like this Winters/Nixon Band of Brothers vid by [livejournal.com profile] kaydeefalls

8) Theories About Nuclear Winters is a Calvin/Susie Calvin & Hobbes fic that is so good it made me cry.

9) [livejournal.com profile] moireach introduced me to a drink that consists of creme de cacao, milk, and seltzer, and NO LIE, you guys, it is the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. Every time I drink it IT IS BETTER THAN I REMEMBERED IT BEING, and I overhype it EVEN TO MYSELF. Also, it was invented for oilmen in the old west or something, so even though it tastes like a fizzy chocolate soda, it is actually BADASS. Smith and Curran: you will have no regrets.

So this week me and [livejournal.com profile] moireach bought a couch. Up until this point, what we'd had in our living room was a love seat, and we were really excited to get a couch that we could both sit on at the same time without it being creepy. (Hiiiiiii Moireach! That shirt looks good on your body.) So we went to IKEA, and bought a couch, but when they delivered it, they took one look at our stairwell and said, "No. There's no way. You're going to have to bring it up over the balcony." But we totally didn't really believe them, because we'd measured it and it should've fit, so later that day we spent two hours trying every possible way to try to get it to turn to go up the stairs. Two hours of our lives, some strained muscles, and a lot of sweat later, the couch was still stuck in our stairwell, which now has some serious dents in the wall. (OUR HOT LANDLORD MUST NEVER KNOW.) In short, Judas Iscariot Couch had betrayed us, deeply. (Seriously, ONE MORE INCH and it would've turned. SO UNFAIR.)

It's not even a big couch - it's smaller than most of the ones they had there.
