jesus, someone took over 4000 caps of bram stoker's dracula.

with gary, people.

ikea

we got two little padded cube-footstools at ikea yesterday. they're called pällbo, and are very cheap. in fact, the bolts that came with them were the kind of thing that sneaky bastards are always using to build busses and houses on csi--so soft i kept stripping them out before i was done screwing them in--but the cubes are assembled and sturdy enough, and really cute, nonetheless.

also, we found the perfect teacups to replace wax's. they have a crackly gold and moss-green japanese glaze, and a double-wide saucer with room for a few sandwiches on one side.

only the fact that it wouldn't fit in mama's car stopped us from buying a red couch. i'm still coveting one fiercely. they were on sale!

and i was just thinking we needed a webcam stat when i opened anttila's new brochure and saw one in there for €29. fortunately i don't have that, or i'd probably buy it. bad cim!

rosencrantz and guildenstern caps, fourth installment

from the silent interlude after the badminton court through the "when is he going to start delving, i asked myself" scene, approximately 240 caps in a zip file.

nu ska jag skriva en lång historia och använda konditionalis mycket.  så mycket svenska har jag skrivit idag, och så mycket konditionalis har jag redan användat!  jag vill  inte skriva bara "if you give a mouse a cookie" men jag tänka och tänka utan hitta någon andra confluence of circumstances. 

dammit.

till sist

jag har äntligen slutat med den svenska skrivende.

JÄTTEKUL.*

PS. i just don't get tired of looking at this icon. his little face! i love motion captures.

so, on a more english-speaking note.

i was talking to perhael about the first time i met wax_jism in person. that was at devon's house in ann arbor, for two days on my way back to amherst for my sophomore year of college. the visit was, well. i still can't think of a word. as i was telling lilah, it was incredibly surreal to meet someone i already knew so intimately, yet had never seen in person. and it all happened so fast. and it all seemed so improbable, incredible to begin with.

but i mean, look at where we are now. discussing what to do with the kitchen table, in light of where we'll be in a few years, when our flat isn't so small. wondering if one can find a used sewing machine in finland, so i'll be able to sew. unable to stop ourselves buying a new set of duvet covers everytime we find some we really like. (fortunately, the total is only up to three that we've bought ourselves, but let's just say with the second set we had more than we needed and we've been given more since then.)

and then i think back to how improbable everything is! fandom is a wacky thing itself, and i only stumbled into it and met wax at all after some strange set of circumstances having mostly to do with kitten_head's ordinary teenage-girl-love for nsync and justin timberlake. i was a totally different person before i met wax, let alone before slash fandom, and it took me a year in slashdom before i started to wonder--and i clearly remember the first instant of articulated wondering; i was reading some britney/pink slash by silviakundera--if i was bisexual.

uh, the end.
