It's going to be one of those days

anonymousblueberryDad came and took the first lot of boxes away yesterday. 1 box of DVDs, 2 of kitchen stuff, 1 of cookery books, 1 of his and 5 of my books. I didn't realise I had quite that many books (I kept finding more as I was packing) and the boxes probably should have been packed a little more sparsely, as they were fucking heavy. The bookshelves have also gone to the locker.
I'm now surrounded by piles of books and DVDs that I'm trying to get rid of.
So far one whole thing has sold on eBay.
I watched the first episode of Game of Thrones yesterday. It was, something. I'm not sure if I really like it or not yet. I didn't realise who Jon was until I looked him up afterwards, I thought he was just some bod. Theon does not look like Theon in my head.
I am hugely unimpressed with Lena Heady, which is shocking, as she's one of my favourite actresses, she also looks terrible blonde. On the flip side, the girl they've got playing Dany is pretty good, and the girl playing Sansa is almost exactly as I pictured her.
I woke up this morning and thought to myself, "hmmm, what day is it today?... it's plastic". I don't think I'm really going to rise above that all that much.
I baked yesterday, mostly out of boredom, and also because I'm trying to empty the cupboards. I made Banana and nectarine muffins (which have a bit too much almond essence in them, and not enough nectarine flavour), and mocha brownies (which are incredibly rich, have walnuts rather than pecan because nowhere had pecans, and go excellently with strawberry icecream). Today I may make double chocolate muffins (I have a lot of cooking chocolate that needs using).
I need to get on with listing all of these bloody books up on Green Metropolis (and the list for friends and what not), start shifting all my writing from Pharangese to Nene and pack LARP kit for the weekend. And go in to town and run some errands, sort my eyebrows out and at some point, pick the car up from dad (I have a nasty feeling this will involve a ride to his place on the motorbike, do not want). And maybe do more packing.
This had all better be bloody worth it.
