Been a While, Hasn't It?

Sorry about the delay, peoples. A lot has happened over the last few days, and because I slept 'til 4 in the afternoon and nothing had a chance to happen today, I will tell you all what was missed.

            Starting four days ago, I had to field strip and clean my room to put in the new bed. This meant spending an entire day, the 19^th, carrying out all the things I wanted to keep. This meant unplugging every thing, including the computer. This blog should have been on the Internet weeks ago, but Mom has been slow and pissy about projects lately, so I still lack publicity as of now. I also had to sort treasures from crap, which is difficult for me, as I am a pack rat. It turned out I had an entire shelf of nothing but rocks and metal welds smuggled from a shop class I had three years ago.

            The next two days were spent literally shoveling garbage out of my room, dragging the old furniture out, and putting in the new stuff. Seriously, I had to go outside, get one of those square tipped shovels, and use it to get my garbage into a black trash bag. The Smart One still laughs every time I tell her about it, though that's only because she has the memory span of a goldfish. We then put together my bed, which is not too different from building an aqueduct with a wood hammer and a mechanical beaver. The damn had barely understandable instructions and all the pieces looked the same. Even the storage boxes we got for my shelf were hard to put together. The simplest thing I got to build was the shelf itself. It only had about five pieces and one kind of peg. After every thing was built I moved every thing back in. I got an office/library under my bed now, with a gun bin on the side.

            Yesterday was literally an all-night party. On Winter Equinox is the Pagan holy day of Yule. Long ago it was a celebration around a large fire waiting for the sun to come up. Now it is a celebration with an altar in the background waiting for the sun to come up. We watched movies, played games (in Apples to Apples it was decided that skinheads were more desperate then the Challenger explosion), and had really good food and drink. Me and my sister were the only ones who succeeded in staying up the entire night. We got to see the sunrise and everything.
