general_radixit new year
hap new year
Things that happened on the last day of 2018, the longest goddamn year so far:
* The mover guys came by and took our old living room TV. Speaking of our living room, it's still kinda cluttered in places, but we're seeing the floor in others for the first time in aeons.
* I got my Figuarts Sailor Jupiter much sooner than eBay projected. :D Also asked Dad to order Figuarts Mars for me, so when she arrives I'll have all the Inners (if you don't count Chibi Moon or Tuxedo Mask).
(Incidentally, I was hoping to get Revoltech Psylocke from my local comic books store, but the final cost of them special-ordering it for me would've been $90, so I ended up passing for now...at least that I meant I could just go ahead and grab Sailor Mars)

I have enough washi tape to coat my car (ok, it's a small one...) but eeee! Colors! Also, I did the mistake of ordering stuff during holidays rush... Italian postal service is extremely infamous for a reason, sigh.

Date: 2019-01-01 07:39 pm (UTC)Ordering from outside the EU is half a nightmare. Going over a certain parcel value means hitting customs, and hitting customs means horrendous waiting times and added importing taxes. And that value is 20€, so you can't even order a fancy planner without having to pay nearly double! (I'm not into fancy planners, since I usually design and bind my own planners and notebooks, but I'm in various groups of planner and stationery fanatics and I've seen about this problem a lot!)

Date: 2019-01-02 06:15 am (UTC)I've moved a couple of times and it's always funny/horrifying when you see the floor for the first time after forever. So many dust bunnies and random items that have fallen into that abyss!
Happy New Year!
