Oooh, ahhh.

The Carrie Diaries got picked up! I realize I am the only person around here who cares, but my dream of more Maggie and Dorrit might just make it to reality! :D

Um, I mean carry on with your day.

Also, one day I will write a book and it shall be called, Oh Lord, There's Some White Girl Cryin'. (Which is something a woman waiting for her tow-truck said last night right before, "you know somethin's goin' down" which was followed by, "and now the police is here.")

Stay classy, island. Stay classy.

I'm thinking of tackling this next:

Day One: Favorite lead female character
Day Two: Favorite supporting female character
Day Three: A female character you hated but grew to love
Day Four: A female character you relate to
Day Five: Favorite female character on a male-driven show
Day Six: Favorite female-driven show
Day Seven: A female character that needs more screen time
Day Eight: Favorite female character in a comedy show
Day Nine: Favorite female character in a drama show
Day Ten: Favorite female character in a scifi/supernatural show
Day Eleven: Favorite female character in a children’s show
Day Twelve: Favorite female character in a movie
Day Thirteen: Favorite female character in a book
Day Fourteen: Favorite older female character
Day Fifteen: Favorite female character growth arc
Day Sixteen: Favorite mother character
Day Seventeen: Favorite warrior female character
Day Eighteen: Favorite non-warrior female character
Day Nineteen: Favorite non-human female character
Day Twenty: Favorite female antagonist
Day Twenty-One: Favorite female character screwed over by canon
Day Twenty-Two: Favorite female character you love but everyone else hates
Day Twenty-Thre: Favorite female platonic relationship
Day Twenty-Four: Favorite female romantic relationship
Day Twenty-Five: Favorite mother/daughter and/or sister relationship
Day Twenty-Six: Favorite classical female character (from pre-20th century literature or mythology or the like)
Day Twenty-Seven: A female character you have extensive personal canon for
Day Twenty-Eight: Favorite female writer (television, books, movies, etc.)
Day Twenty-Nine: A female-centric fic rec
Day Thirty: Whatever you’d like!


But it will require a little more thought.

Did I mention we have our "be out of here by" date? Early August. So I really need to actually get a move on with this whole packing thing. Which would be easier if I had some friggin' boxes, y'know? Sigh. Unfortunately there are at least two other people moving right now and both are definitely moving sooner than we are, so boxes are pretty difficult to come by these days at work.

My current plan is to leave my MH and Pullips for last for different reasons. MH because I love them so and also I do not trust myself to not just keep adding to the collection anyway, and Pullips because they're fragile and the less time I have to worry about them in boxes, the less time I have to worry about them period.

I need to get to Bob's room (Bob the desk) and pack most of that room up but still leave space so the boy can brave the squirrels and haul stuff out from under the eaves for me. Whether he wants to or not.

Trying to figure out the best way, in theory, to pack up the books, but this will also be pretty simple once I have boxes. I figure it'll be about two hours to pack up my wall of books (though not necessarily anything on top of the bookcases) which will still leave me time to ponder which ones get to be left out for reading purposes.

Ooh! I like that 30 day challenge. Methinks I'll steal that one too. But you're right - it's going to take a LOT of thought.
