no, no, don't rescue me

So, my last day at the Olentangy store was on the seventh. Naturally, I celebrated this by getting deathly ill. As in, bedridden for days on end. That kind of deathly ill. So I've been pretty damn miserable, though Skyward Sword and various books have been keeping me entertained. And then, Mal's been a complete sweetheart. She will not leave my side at all. If I get up to shower, she lays outside the bathroom until I'm done, if I go downstairs to try for the computer she sits beside me. And if I'm on the computer for too long, she'll try to lead me back upstairs, purring plaintively until I follow her back to bed. My adorable sweetheart cat.

But yes, I actually celebrated my last day by purchasing an ingenuiTEA teapot, the Mycroft, Reichenbach Recovery, and TARDIS blends off of Adagio Teas, because I've always wanted to buy tea from there, but kept putting it off. I'm also interested in the Donovan and Katniss blends, because they also sound delicious. But I'm in love with slightly too-sweet tea, so I got sweet teas. I can't wait to try them. I also spoiled myself by buying a star projector and a mushroom nightlight, because there is not enough light in the guest bedroom I've been renting out. Which by the way, there is also that. So if you think you have my address and are planning on surprising me with something, you don't actually have my address anymore. So uh, contact me for that.

In other news, Hugo is a delightful movie and put me in one of the best moods I've been in for months, and since I'm pretty sick atm, this is quite the accomplishment. It's gorgeous though, and the score really makes the movie. Absolutely lovely. I've wanted to see the movie for awhile, but it wasn't until I saw the collection of kidlock pictures and this fantastic video featuring little!Sherlock and little!John, that I actually downloaded it. Also, this video is fantabulous.
