K-Bug and bf are moving out right now, AIFG. I will miss seeing her each day, but it is time.
This weekend I get to play around with what I want to do with that room. And shop for Jensen posters. Hmmmmmmmm.
'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm glad that they are going when you are ready for them to go, Suzi.
I just got sucked into reading about the War of the Roses. Why? It ends up being all blah blah blah Henry, blah blah blah John in my brain. Why can't I keep that stuff straight?
I look like I've been punched in the face. I have hives on my cheekbone just below my right eye. Why has my body decided that this is how it should manifest allergies now?

Whoot!
Why can't I keep that stuff straight?
There are a few Tudors (Plantagenets, whatever) I can keep straight: Henry VIII, Jane Grey, Henry VIII's daughters Mary and Elizabeth, and Richard III. And that's about it.
Amy, have you read Wolf Hall (& its sequel)? Those have straightened me out about the Tudors. And are really great!
Jackbooted Neo-Nazi "security guards" performing illegal searches and rousting workers out of their beds in the middle of the night... who could have foreseen that might become a problem?
-But Amy - that's all post Wars of the Roses except for Richard III.
So you want Edward III, Richard II, Henry IV, Henry V, Henry VI, Edward IV, Edward V, Richard III and then the Tudors.
I guess my point is that I only know post Wars of the Roses, sumi. I do need to get caught up on the others.
We have Wolf Hall, lisah, and Stephen read it and loved it -- I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
I'm a few pages from finishing the sequel, Bring Up the Bodies, & I am stalling because I don't want it to end. And then wait however long ut will take the 3rd book to be published.
I think that the lesson of the Wars of the Roses is that EIII had too many sons. . . and then his heir decided to leave the throne to a descendant from the female line and all hell broke loose.
