Things I find amusing.

You can get both febreeze and simple green here. You can’t get long size sanitary napkins. You can’t get a soft bed.

Last night was the first night I slept in Nick’s old apartment. My apartment now. I seriously disliked sleeping on the futon. I might have done better sleeping on the couch, which is nowhere near comfy. But I made do, or tried to. I’m apparently allergic to something in his futons. So today I felt it well worth the cash and bought a bed. It’s this cute little on sale twin size (although they call it a single, which makes much more sense). It’s really hard, but the softest in the store, and the cheapest. Score. I expected to spend around 30000y for it, but it came out to less than 20000, so I felt very justified in buying a new futon to go on top of it, to make it more sqwishy. I’m very happy with it right now. Although I really wish that I could have found some green sheets. Ah, well. White will work for now.

I also purchased some small trash cans from the 100y store, one for in the bathroom, for those feminine things. One for right next to my bed. Well worth it. I also bought some file holders for the important papers. Again from the 100y store. From the department store where I bought the bedding I also picked up a bath mat, because the one in the hall gets soaked everytime I take a shower (the shower hits the door and slides under it to soak the hall), and the rug out there was literally just a rug, and got soaked and never dried. This one has a water resistant bottom, and is small enough that I can hang up after a shower to dry.

I’ve also been rearranging. I took down every single sliding door in the apartment. They just closed off the space (from me and me, and we get along very well, so why would I need the separation?) and blocked the air flow, and right now, air flow is very very very very very important. It’s bloody humid. And hot. I moved the kitchen table so that I don’t have to lean over it to reach the light switch, and put it right in that beautiful air flow, so that when I sit down to eat, I get that air flow. I think it’s brilliant.

Speaking of the kitchen, I figured out yesterday that Nick didn’t have a microwave. At all. I found one at the MakeMan for about 13000, which is not bad, considering that it has a convection oven function. I think I’ll have to wait until next payday to buy it though. And I’ll have to get something to put it on.

So my house is still a mess, but more of a me kind of mess than just my stuff everywhere kind of mess. And I’m very happy with the progress.
