nuriMy move proceeds apace. Our truck and trailer connection keeps flaking on us, so we are finding alternative means to get the furniture out of the house. We should have it out by Sunday, no matter what. Then it's just odds and ends and finding storage for Wolfpack items.
Of course, the first thing that we did today was get the internet set up. We've decided to forgo cable again, after reading the fine print we realized that we don't wanna pay almost $100 a month so that we can get the three channels we might watch. I'm okay with being a season behind, or watching some things online. Philip won't like it when he visits, but he can deal. The internet is lovely. We did have to buy a new router, but now it is shiny and pretty and well-designed. And a decent price.
One bookshelf set up in the office, so that we could get some of the books on it to get at the boxes, so we could keep packing. I'm not tackling the closet until the bed is out and I can sort with a lot of space. I want to throw out a lot of things.

In other news, I've been playing with re-writing Sing Nothing But Sky, the massive rewrite of a high school round robin that has eaten my brain for over ten years now, as an audio drama for Made of Fail. I've written the first first draft of the first episode, and have ideas for a teaser episode to give background humorously. The format is very different for me, so I'm sure I'll be doing a lot of editing once I have a little more distance.
I also have roughly 6k of Clint/Darcy fic (if you can't ship people that have never met in canon, you aren't trying hard enough), which is new for me. I even have a rough idea of where I'm going and what has to happen to get there! I haven't written fic in ages. Also, I'm loving just how widely I'm reading in avenger fandom. As long as it's good, or at least has roombas, I'm happy to read it.
And insurance!fic will happen once I unpack my AINS books to get the format of the case studies.
