Proceeding apace
Aug. 10th, 2003 12:53 amMy brother is in the middle of a sneaky takeover of my computer. It seems he's gotten himself addicted to the Time Suck that is Pharoah, and he weasels his way onto my computer while I'm at work. And when I come home. And on the weekends, as soon as I'm distracted by house stuff. In between distractions, as I was calling Kasha about gaming tomorrow, he suggested lunch at this burrito place, and I quote: "Somewhere in Greenwood."
I got dressed, Kasha came over, and we set out. After half an hour of wandering in and around Green Lake and Greenwood with absolutely no success, because he'd only ever been there as a passenger, and knew that it had 'Burrito in the name,' Kasha and I finally vetoed the burritos and decided on Dim Sum instead. We were almost to the International District when one of Dru's friends finally called him back with the name and location. (Which we'd passed twice, even.) I promised him burritos tomorrow instead.
After lunch, I got to show off my condo to them both: we scrambled behind some bushes, and peeked in the windows, and checked out the pool and cabana (sadly, sans cabana boys.) My memory had been shrinking it a bit, so it was surprisingly refreshing to have it be bigger. I've got a measuring tape for the inspection Monday.
When we got home, Dru dragged up my comics from the basement, and with that distraction, comandeered my computer for almost the entirety of the day while I sat and had Kasha entertain me while I sorted through four years of collecting comics and cataloged them all so I could sell them. I'm of a mind to offer them to interested slashers for the cost of postage, otherwise, I'll try and sell them locally. I'll try and post a list of what I've got (nicely hidden behind a cut-tag to save the uninterested from the otherwise mind-numbing detail) tomorrow after gaming: I've managed to make quite the inroad in the boxes, and I'm about two-thirds done.
Most of what I've got is DC: I started with Elfquest and Wonderwoman, and through various crossovers stumbled into most of the Batman titles and the groups (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cereta, if you want Titans, I've got a boxful) Very scattered Superman: I've got room in my head for one main canon and some AUs - that part of my brain was taken over by Lois&Clark. Some comics I'll be keeping: All my Elfquest, of course, the early Wonder Womans for the sweep of mythology after th 88 reboot, for another instance, but the majority will find its way out of my hands one way or another.
I did take a break to run down and pick up my condo's resale certificate, which is a hefty pile of documentation. Whuff. And I got lots of mortgage-y things in the mail, which I will have to read and sign and attempt not to break my hand in the doing thereof.
Oh yeah, and Eddie and pizza. And helping polish Lucy's new character for tomorrow.
