PYGMY HIPPO!!!!!!!

I tell you these things are getting closer and closer to House Hippos. I want a House Hippo to live in my closet and leave his footprints in peanut butter :)


In other news my new game of the night is everytime my computer freezes (which is quite often with the onset of the super hot weather) I have to pack a bag/box etc. Or do some moving task.

Tonight I've:
Packed 2 duffle bags.
Changed my mailing address for almost every piece of mail I get coming into the house bar one which I have to wait 'til Friday to do.
Taken down my dart board (magnetic) calandar and anything else that was nailed into the wall as well as taken out the nails.
Done dishes.
Finished the fish and 1 bag of frozen veggies from the freezer (resulting in lunch being already made for me tomorrow :)

Productive like woah :)

Yay productivity!

I had to stop packing clothes because I've run out of places to put things... but we get the house tomorrow so things can start going over there!

That's a good perk. With this place we had it a month early so I was able to move over in stages. Even with my new place my friends let me move some stuff over earlier so I moved fragile stuff and a few milk crates of DVDs because they're not closed and I didn't want them falling over in the moving truck. I'm going to have to do a few car loads of stuff after the movers are done as well for the stuff I don't want them moving.

OMG, I want to steal that hippo and take it home with me. Because... who didn't want a house hippo when those commercials came on tv! And also -- BABY!

Ahem.

Seems like a lot of moving going on. Good luck! If you have any suggestions, I'll be moving at the end of August and would LOVE to hear them. Seriously. It's kinda a freaky thought.

:D

Moving is chaotic like woah!

I think everyone wanted a house hippo, those things were awesome. They so did not get the intended reaction that commercial was looking for lol.'

Off topic: I've added you to my F/O journal a_chance_to_fly :)

also ICON LOVE!

Hee hee, I know. "Don't believe everything you see on tv" was met with a stunned:

"...BUT I WANT ONE!"

And ooh, thanks for the add-on. Can't wait until I get my own chaotic moving experience! (Okay actually, I could wait. Aieeee!)

also ICON LOVE!

Heh. <3 Mary Poppins.

Hee more icon love. I so must see that episode! I've just sort of been discovering Stargate... must buy DVDs :)

I'm looking forward to being moved and then to unpacking. Once that's over and done with I'll be much more relaxed :)

Wow, major productivity.

I'm trying, I want to be done most of my packing by the time I go to bed tonight so it'll be a VERY productive evening but once I'm done I can just focus on cleaning and any last minute errands I have to do :) I want to be as stress free as possible for moving day since that's generally a very stressful day.

I Want House Hippos Too!

[identity profile] murielle.livejournal.com 2007-06-28 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
I love them! I love that commercial! I'd find them all the dryer lint they'd ever need. I would! Honest, I would!

Good for you for having a very productive evening and meal for tomorrow. ::pats you on back::

Hee, thank you :) I'm working hard to make sure I get everything done for Saturday. I think I'm on the right track :)

I think I need to icon a house hippo at some point LOL

Good thing you didn't turn that into a drinking game -- you'd be in a coma!

Yes indeed, I love my PC, even with the freezing :)

and LOL drinking games while packing just doesn't seem like the best plan... ;)

No, I doubt if your packing would have ever gotten done if you'd followed that plan. :-)

My Mac has had its problems, but I can count on one hand the number of times a program has frozen up in the last year -- and the entire OS has never frozen up. Of course, it was also twice what I spent on our Windows laptop. :-(
