As promised, I unpacked all my books this morning. I amaze myself that they're all able to fit in two bookshelves. This might be because I didn't actually *bring* all of them, mind you, but we all must make sacrifices. (Or buy new bookshelves.)
I went over to Eric's this afternoon to watch Firefly with him and Jing and to play Chaos Roborally. What's Chaos Roborally, you ask? It's regular Roborally, but with the added choas element of a randomly-programmed robot (today played by Eric's stuffed penguin) as well as a flag positioned on a double-speed conveyer belt that was running around in circles. Fun times, fun times. Also tried some wonderful Haagen Dazs green tea and vanilla ice cream. My two favourite flavours, together at last. Bliss! (I can't actually find it online, otherwise I'd link to it.)
Got home to do some stuff on the computer and then it was time to try... (insert drumroll please)... the latest instalment in Julie's "adventures in cooking" series, crock pot chilli! Surprisingly, it actually came out really good. (Marc would say it's impossible to mess up chilli. How little he knows me.) This might be a recipe we'll try again at some point. For now, after eating our fill, we've still got enough for at least 5 small tupperwares (two ladle-fulls each, which is a Marc-sized serving and maybe one-and-a-half Julie-sized servings). So, success! Yay!
In other productive news, I did some brainstorming with my GM from Toronto and hopefully will have a new story percolating over the next few days, helped Marc hang some pictures (honestly, he did most of the work, but it looks really awesome), and finalized the spell list for my new D&D character. So there you go. We've all got our priorities.
Now time for shower and sleeping. G'night, all.
