Weekend

I had a very good weekend, despite being snowed in for a good part of Sunday (not as bad as my mom though, there were snowdrifts higher than her waist in their driveway). I went over to Dawn and Jason's on Friday night, and due to my lack of sleep Thursday night, ended up staying there until Saturday morning. I would've stayed there longer, but the snowstorm was starting, and, since I hadn't fed the cats, couldn't afford to get stranded there. I love Dawn and Jason. They feed me things like paczki (a Detroit area tradition, for you uninitiated) and let me harrass play with Justin, who's almost two (!). I adore that boy. We're still teaching him to say "Aunt Lisa". I think he can say it, but isn't. Sample conversation this weekend:

Dawn: Justin, can you say "Lisa"?
Justin: Waffle!
Dawn: No, "Lisa".
Justin: Kitty!
Dawn: "Lisa."
Justin: Momma!
He grinned the whole time. Definitely a sense of humor, that kid.

When we weren't eating, we watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which all three of us loved (unanimous movie opinions are rare). And then after Justin went to bed, Dawn and Jason continued their program to hook me on to Dark Age of Camelot the same way they hooked me on EverQuest.

Well, it worked, because I bought it on Sunday and spent most of yesterday futzing around with my computer as a result. Initial impression: DaoC is lightyears ahead of EQ. Everything I hated about EQ seems to be fixed in DaoC. And I'd been jonesing for a computer game to get into, so it's all good.

But now it's a Monday, and life goes back to normal. Feh.
