Home. Graduated. Wore the silly hat and everything (it's okay; all the Very Important Academic People sitting on the stage were wearing sillier ones. One had what I still maintain was a pirate hat. It had pointy corners. Felt sadly unsilly by comparison.) You may get subjected to a picture of me in the outfit soon, with my New Hair being squashed by the Silly Hat. Though, there's not much of it left to get squashed since apparently hair-dressers take "Leave it as long as possible" to mean "thin the top like crazy until there's a little bit of longer hair under the short." That said, it's nice. I actually have a semi-fringe for the first time in years.

Also, have DVD racks. Stopped in IKEA on the way home and I soothed my no-longer-a-bumstudent-pain by buying New and Shiny Things. So, DVD racks and a new cabinet-y thing for stationery and cushions and a rug and blue fairy lights shaped like sparrows (I kid you not. Most hilarious thing ever.) Daim cake went some way towards consoling me too. Cake made from Dimes. I love the Swedish.

Bought new books. Finally.

Have to poke dukedee and hill2k for what's happening tomorrow night. Suddenly I find myself booked twice for midnight on the same day. The odds.

In short: have been Awash With Sulky Bitterness for a few weeks but am finally getting over myself and quitting all the Wallowing In Silent Rage At The World. Promise to be back to normal and go answer comments and generally commune with the world from now on.

...S'amazing what a couple of DVD racks can do.

edit: Okay, so maybe I won't be rejoining the land of the Internets fully just yet because I remain miraculously unspoiled for HP and want it to remain that way in the final countdown. I will of course spend all of Saturday reading, so don't expect much other than the odd outburst of !!!! when I simply have to explode over LJ without spending too much time typing.

My DVD racks are made of awesome. Oh yes.
