The downstairs is entirely painted. It is a different color of white than it used to be. It looks, essentially, exactly the same as before, except now it smells of new paint, and is perhaps brighter. The kitchen looks much nicer. And the garage is cleaned and organized and we did a dump run (well, the boys did) and … we got a lot done yesterday, actually. Today, because we are real party animals, we get to clean the downstairs in the “nuke it from orbit” sense of cleaning. Everything…
oops.
Last time I tried to make a blog entry, the power went out. Let’s see if it happens again. :) I got very useful critiques on “Ill Met” from Sarah and Stella, and Silkie did her usual eye for detail thing and caught everything I’d mucked up as far as historical relevance is concerned, so I’ll do revising this weekend and submit that baby on Monday.

Little bitch. :) Everyone *else* likes my writing nook setup, but she doesn’t, ’cause she can’t sit on my shins anymore while I write. :) *laugh* Email this morning from the guy…
figurines, looking for a good home
Ok, I’m trying to cull figurines. I have a lot of X-Men figurines and a few random other things. I don’t need most of them, but I can’t bring myself to throw them away. Would anyone be interested in any of the following, or to tell me where I might advertise them in such a fashion as they might actually be purchased? (None of them seem to be moving on eBay, so my little heart is not full of hope.) Ultimate Magneto bust Ultimate Storm bust Ultimate Cyclops bust Ultimate…
