There’s a new Staples in town, and I guess they sent out little presents like, “come check us out” sorta thing, including a $25 coupon. Well this weekend was basically the last weekend to use it, so yesterday we spent over an hour walking up and down the aisle of Staples trying to figure [...]
We spent all weekend barbecuing and watching Battlestar Galactica. Ah, the good life. BSG is our new obsession — I know, everyone else already knows how awesome it was, but we just figured it out recently. How was your holiday weekend? :)
We went to see a play this afternoon, and sat behind an old(er) couple. Partway through the play, the old man (who must’ve been somewhat deaf) said, “Did I fall asleep? Was I snoring?” to which his wife loudly (but not as loudly as he was) whispered, “Yes.” He snorted and then said, [...]
That last post reminded me, I’ve been meaning to put up photos from the manicure/pedicure for 2 weeks now. Gawd I’m slow. Anyways, I went with Julie to Fusion Nails & Spa. Going with Julie was nice cos she knows whatall is going on, so she helped me pick my colors (red [...]
I was standing outside when I heard some college students talking about their plans for this weekend. It sounded like they were planning a party of some sort, cos one of them said, “… get some microbrews, and a couple of cheeses, some fruit, and maybe some wine…” And all I could think was, [...]
Yut and I have been thinking about getting a carshare membership for a while now. We’re basically uninterested in owning a car, what with the maintenance, gas, insurance, etcetc. In general though, we need a car so little that even though we’d talked about carsharing, and agreed to do it, we never got [...]
We finally decided to get rid of our old couch last weekend. It was due — the middle seat’s support beam was broken, plus it was old. Since misa and neb were looking to sell their old couch we figured it was a sign! (I dunno why I’m all about signs this [...]
Yut and I reinstalled our computers this weekend. Considering how much we love our computers, you’d think we’d be all good with reinstalling them, but no, I think reinstallation is awful and harrowing. (Okay, harrowing is probably a little melodramatic, but whatevs, you get what I mean.) I mean, my poor computer’s [...]
Yut and I made a risotto last weekend as a belated sort of Valentine’s activity. It was delicious! We’d never made a risotto before, although I love risotto, so it fit our Valentine thing — we try to cook something we’ve never done before (which is almost anything really).
Tomato and Sausage Risotto, from [...]
We played a lot of DotA this weekend cos Cliff’s getting back to playing more, and now CT’s all into it too. Yup, it’s true, even though we spent most of the time playing Rayman all through the winter holiday season, we also installed Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and the expansion, The Frozen [...]
