Nice weekend!
Jun. 25th, 2007 09:39 amThis weekend was full of doing stuff, but it was fairly low-stress stuff and a lot of fun.
Friday night I walked home from work (thereby working off the calories from the evil chocolate trifle), then walked to the grocery store and back, and then walked to Downtown Wine and Liquors and back. That's about 4.5 miles total. Go me! The rest of the evening was quiet.
Saturday started out with the making of the margarita pie. It needed a little more tartness, I decided, but when I added lime juice, it turned out perfect. So no cooking stress. Then, it was off to meet
lindalee to get a ride to the home of
tigira and
meadmaker, where much lovely food was eaten and braver souls than I played in the pool.
Afterwards, I went home, got my stuff together, and headed over to Alewife where
wench33 picked me up to go to her party. We played quite a lot of volleyball (as in high school, I don't suck, but I'm not brilliant), drank much booze, and ate a lot of yummies. It's a good thing I saved up all my extra points for that day. I was surprised to see one of
fyrebloom's spice at the event, and would have gotten a ride home with him were it not for the fact that he wasn't quite ready to leave at 2:45, while I was on the verge of falling asleep. Got a cab instead. Cabbie wasn't an idiot and was able to get me to a point where I could direct him. That was a nice change.
Sunday was a fairly relaxed day of shopping in Salem with
meadmaker and his wee'un. We had a great time. I got a nearly-dead perfume cloned at Aroma Sanctum (not perfect, but smells very nice), and bought a bunch of other stuff I needed and wanted. I ended up making clear-broth clam chowder for dinner. Very light recipe. Very tasty. Must post to
ww_recipes1 after this. Had that with a salad of baby spinach, sliced strawberries, and balsamic vinegar. Yum.
I really hope I get my new ATM card this week. If not, I'm kinda fucked since my old one expires at the end of the month. If I don't have it by Saturday, I will take out large amounts of cash and call BoA to bitch them out.
And now to work.

also remember: Math is hard, use Trojans!
