It was a good weekend. Got the cat shaved, so her fur is no longer all matted. We try to do that about every four months, though it ends up being more like six to eight. Gave them both baths, which, if you could ask them, is an equivalent torture to being dipped in boiling oil. Grocery shopping, housecleaning, and some other small chores done.
Also played a lot of Guitar Hero 3, read a bit, watched
Veronica Mars, The Wire, and
House. (Huh. I just realized all three shows have ambiguously moral main characters.) Maybe later this week I'll do a post on
The Wire, and why it's such an incredible show. Or maybe I'll simply wax poetic about
Puzzle Quest, which is
Bejeweled on steroids.
Next weekend we're having a GH3 party with a couple of friends. I'll get to impress them with my ability to play Weezer's "My Name Is Jonas" on Medium difficulty. Yes, sir. I really know how to rock and/or roll.
Of course I worked on my book. Someone read the first two chapters and liked them enough to ask for more, which was a nice ego boost. I'm really liking the changes I've made, and my husband helped me come up with an incredible idea to really flesh out a character.
I also enjoyed the
gourmet marshmallows my husband bought me for a birthday gift. They're awesome. Even if you're mostly indifferent to marshmallows, I highly recommend them.
Just a few random thoughts to start this Monday morning.
