I think you should get a Jedi baby mobile. she could practice aiming and electrocuting the rotating little Jedi figures to the imperial march or something. I'm sure the music is adjustable on those things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of My Name Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So I saw eight dead fetuses today? Weird day. I visited an exposition of dead bodies for my internship, to interview people about it, There was some pretty unusual stuff there. 19 hours ago, Lord Sidious said: Hide contents It's a girl , and she will not be called Aegon, Visenya however is a possibility. Awesome Congratulations! Hey, if I marry her, does that mean I can still be emperor after she takes your trone? 18 hours ago, RhaenysB said: Yeah, the thing is I don't have much life beyond to-do-lists. I did close the analysis phase of a cool project today with a presentation/workshop today, which went well and was a pleasant enough payoff for lots of work. And I'll be getting into a new project with a company in the upcoming weeks. Errr... work, to-do-lists... I will be signing up for this painting thing. It's basically a class where you get to recreate a famous painting of your choice (well, there are options you can choose from) and it's supposed to be fun and a great way to switch off and channel your stress through "art" (let's be generous and call recreating a famous painting with amateur skills art). I can't think of anything else in my life that's remotely interesting. Note taken. That actually sounds pretty fun, more fun than my dead babies at least. And the IKEA updates are like the lifeblood of TTTNE these days so hey, it's not all bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part was the woman with the open belly with the dead baby inside. No wait, the best part was actually that these are actually not American bodies like the organisation claimed but that apparently at least some of them were Chinese homeless people whose corpses were sold by their government. It sounds even worse typing it here. I mean, it's an interesting internship. The hours are shit but that's journalism for you, I can't really complain. Good advice, I'll try to. I was hoping dead babies would liven up the conversation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Olenna Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 On 8/31/2017 at 1:26 AM, RhaenysB said: but I can't. And I do make an effort to enjoy it, I'm trying so hard, but I just can't. I will totally be taking the IKEA route too for most of the furniture. Non-IKEA furniture is impossible (for me) to afford and luckily (?) I don't even have the motivation to try to afford it because it's also goddamn ugly for the most part. And even though I freaking hate IKEA, they sort have a monopolized enough position that you don't really have option B for affordable and decent looking furniture. Agreed the only non expensive furniture we looked at were used pieces that I would have to completely refinish. I already have two tables and an antique vanity that I need to strip and paint. Trying to do all that to a China cabinet and entertainment center just didn't sound like a task I want to take on. Plus we don't have a truck to pick it all up with. And yes, all the new furniture we saw in stores was really pretty ugly. At our old house we bought a used Ektorp sofa that lasted us years and went through so much abuse - so we bought two new ones and I have to say I think they are very comfy. I've managed to assemble the China cabinet and the desk I bought for sewing. I still have so many boxes to put together. It's kind of like Legos for adults though with confusing instructions. In other news I have to start painting the new house... all 2000 sq ft of it. I don't even know where to begin. Happy weekend everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashara_Dayne Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I hear you Lady O and RhaenysB. We started on making the attic ready so we can start putting the floor in today. We did the stripping the walls, stucco, paint, a kitchen and floor on the bottom two floors before we moved (end of april). It's never finished. So much to do and I have barely even looked at the garden yet. Good luck to the both of you. I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I am sure babysitting in England pays better than proofreading in Slovenia, so ... *packs bags* .i actually know someone who worked as a nanny/au pair forna year before she started university to earn some money and ensure her English was up to scratch (and get to know London). It's generally very well off families who can afford this so the pay was generous, plus she lived with them which removed the cost of rent, and she often ate with them too so her expenses were pretty low.

You have a three level house? That sounds very big! I haven't even started the garden either. But it's so hot right now I don't even want to.
