ABANDON ALL FREE TIME YE WHO ENTER HERE
Right. So we went to Top Gun for dim sum with Jonathan (jch@CS, for the zephyrati) and Stewart, which was pretty good, even if Stewart insisted on eating chicken feet (ewww). I got milk tea at Gossip afterwards, and we had parked at Uwajimaya so I was like "well, we can pay 10 dollars for parking for two hours, or I can go buy something for 10 dollars and we'll get parking free..." so I went and got a Chococat CD case. It reminded me of ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
cattchan for some reason.
We came home, hung out a little... Stewart took off for Redmond... then Eli went grocery shopping... and I... uhh... yeah.
Short shameful confession:
I started playing that Puzzle Pirates thing.
Sadly, of course, all the games in it are variations on puzzle games I already am pretty good at... Dr. Mario, Alchemy, Bejeweled, Super Puzzle Fighter, Chu Chu Rocket.. so... yeah. I ended up jobbing for the same crew/ship as Nykkel and Thunderbird, which was fun for a while until Nykkel and I both simultaneously lost our connections to the net, at which point I gave up playing for a few hours. Foy told me not to bother coming over, so I didn't... instead, I (man, today is definitely a day of me doing things I say I don't do) cleaned my room. Well, to some extent, at least. I took out the trash, and filled up two more trash bags with junk from my floor, and I swept, and I dusted under my computer table, and... yeah. It looks a lot better than it did before, even if it still looks pretty cluttered.
I uhh.. I assembled the Maison Ikkoku figures I got from the capsule machines in Japan. Now I just need to figure out where to put them. It's so cool, I got the whole set in my first 6 tries. Kyoko, Ichinose & Soichiro, Yotsuya, Godai, Akemi Roppongi, and Yagami. (Yeah, they skipped 3, 7, and 9 for some reason... I guess they consider Mitaka and Kujo secondary characters, although I think Nanao was more important than Yagami!) Hey, raise your hand if you also actually watched all 96 episodes of MI. Yeah, I thought so. Put your hand down if your name is Michael Duggan.
Eli and I ate tortellini for dinner and then I took a nap and then I played more Puzzle Pirates ARRRRRRGGGHHHHH. This does not bode well, me hearties. (I suppose it's not really fair for me to blame it on Nykkel, really. After all, I could just decide not to ever play again. Wouldn't be that hard. If anything, it's a little bit frustrating as a game anyway.)
Anyway, I should go to sleep so I can get up on time for work, and so I'm not in crappy condition to sing tomorrow night... I think I'm going to go ahead and try to join the NW Chorale or whatever withthatmathchick and jeliza... they're singing the Messiah this fall and I haven't been in a Messiah chorus in a billion years. I still know the tenor line to about 1/3 of the choruses though, so hopefully it won't be too hard for me to get up to speed, assuming they're going to let me sing tenor.
Also,atomx just reminded me, but I want to go see Lost in Translation sometime. Dunno where, looks like it's playing at a few of the small theatres in Seattle...
