Friday: The last going out with the people at work in the forseeable future.

The person who plans all of our happy hour type activities had her last day with us on Friday, and is now off to Monterey to try to open a restaurant. As she was well liked, it was quite the event with just about everyone coming out to buy her a drink, or other people drinks, or just random unclaimed drinks. I’m pretty good about pacing myself, so I didn’t have any trouble getting home, although, things where a bit questionable round about 7 where I ended up with two tequilla shots essentially back to back. One being “Take a shot with Kim” and the other being “Take Kim’s shot too because ???” I’m sure there was a reason, but I don’t think anyone ever told me.

I always seem to leave just before the interesting things happen. Which I guess means I need to stop leaving.

Saturday: Hooray work and stuff.

Only about an hour at work, so it wasn’t too bad. Then off to do general shopping. I got a 1GB flash drive for $25, so that was a nice find. I don’t expect it to last long for that price, but I don’t really care. I also continued the never-ending quest for new hiking boots. I was close to getting a pair, but they just didn’t quite fit right, so I didn’t. Someday I’ll find you, oh legendary size 8 1/2.

Sunday: Oh right, with the destroying of the world.

I finished Might and Magic VI. That was pretty much my day. When you destroy the alien reactor at the end, you have to use a special item, or it will explode and destroy the world. I always forget about that. But on the plus side, if you do happen to forget, it still says “Congratulations!” on the ending screen. It just explains that you’ve done something wrong as well and now everyone is dead.

Monday: Yay! More work. And food.

Back to work for 4 hours or so. Nothing was horribly wrong, so it was pretty easy. Then it was off to Melody’s for some vegan BBQ. MmmMm….corn, and gluten, and probably soy. And perhaps some of the best peanut butter and chocolate rice crispy treats I’ve ever had.

Oh, and I was supposed to meet someone I might get set up with. And I met her, but apparently no sparks were observed, so that’s probably not going anywhere. So, now I’m waiting until someone from Huston I’m supposed to marry visits in July.
