labellementeuse1. When livejournal changes stuff around, I feel like someone's come into my house and started rearranging the furniture. It really bothers me that the symbol on the tab is a little head now instead of a pencil! Noooo!
2. My sister and I are currently flat-hunting, and we may possibly have found somewhere, but it's a little on the dear side for her/both of us (but less so for me, I could manage it) and also trying to connect power/phone/internet sounds terrifying and we'd have to furnish the place and and and ... I am very excited to move out, but less excited to move in, haha.

Actually mostly for Batman Incorporated. EFF YEAH, CASS!!!!!!!! BUT 1. I wish she'd had a speech bubble, just one and 2. can Steph please please please go to Hong Kong. Please.
Also I think mystery dude was Jason. Maybe. I hope so anyway.
4. In the car today I had this epically awful conversation with the parentals about the difference between "transvestite" and "transgendered" and included my dad saying the immortally offensive "Well we used to know lots of trannies and they didn't care if you called them transvestites" (SO MUCH WRONG WITH THAT SENTENCE) and my mum saying "What you're calling transvestite is what we used to call crossdressers!" (OH MY GOD, ETYMOLOGY, WHAT IS IT). This depresses me because by most standards my parents are fairly tolerant. I think I eventually managed to hammer in transvestites, transgender, Drag Queens, and "OH MY GOD DAD STOP SAYING TRANNY".
5. I think I had other stuff but the awfulness of that conversation sucked it out of me. Oh OK, you people can help me by telling me (if you're NZers)
- Who your ISP is, whether you like them, how much you pay for how much data
- Do we need a land line
- Ditto power companies? I've never lived with fewer than three other people in a standalone house, so I don't even know what a power bill for two people in a downstairs flat that's part of a larger house looks like.
