Sick. :( But only in a couple different ways. My throat is full of gunk that makes me cough wetly every now and then - what's everyone's favorite way of dealing with that? I also have a runny nose.
On Friday night
londo,
anitra,
nightskyre, and I all went out to TGI Friday's to use my $50 giftcard. Not having to worry about money was nice. I had a huge rack of ribs and ate the whole darned thing. We then went to Coldstone Creamery which, for Oklahomans, is a lot like Marble Slab. I had banana ice cream with brownies, peanut butter cups, and walnuts mixed in. I was very pleased.
londo and I slept in on Saturday, had thai food for lunch, futzed around until evening, and then went to the end of the "Lord of the Rings 'Til You Bleed" marathon some of his friends on campus were having. Of course, we arrived a few minutes into Return of the King, so I still have yet to see the whole thing. Bleh. I'm sure
karlean7 can hook me up sometime, since he's supposed to come visit me and all.
Afterwards, at 12-1am, it was decided that newbies like me and 4 others should learn to play the Babylon 5 collectible card game, while the experienced players (like londo) played their own game. I learned, it was fun except for that damned, "I have no clue what's going on and everyone else does!!" feeling that I get when learning a new thing around people I don't know well. The normal win condition is 20 power; the newbies played one game to 12 and then another full one to 20. I won the full one only because it was about 7am and someone was tired and wanted to quit so he played a card that said, "End the round now!" before other people had a chance to do their actions that would enable them to win (it was a tie for quite a while).
Oh, there's this guy at WPI who is quite willing to spend HOURS scratching my head. Need I explain how much heaven that was? He's cute too. ;)
Anyway, we probably got to bed by 9am, and I woke up about 8:30pm. Wonderful. He is, of course, still asleep. :P
...wow. Getting close to a year.
