These day-off things are lovely

Another day off yesterday. I could get used to this. Spent most of the day cleaning the house and having me-time, which was lovely. Walked to the Berkeley Bowl with someotherguy, by way of the coffee shop. Had dryadgrl and golden_c_turtle over for dinner of soy/ginger tilapia, store-bought potstickers, cute adorable (and yummy) rice balls that someotherguy made, and cucumber salad (that someotherguy also made). Also lovely greek yogurt and honey that dryadgrl brought -- sweetie, we still have your honey (and the lemon juice from when you made hollandaise that time).

Then we played "Killer Bunnies," which is a lot of work to learn -- the bestest-funnest part was listening to a scornful rendition of the rules by dryadgrl. Those people really cannot write for shit. And then I passed up on the opportunity to disable golden_c_turtle, and she beat us (by, as it turns out, random chance -- what a long way to go for the luck of the draw!).

Then we played "Apples to Apples," which was way easier and more fun. People were cute and lovey and funny. Kettle corn was made and eaten. Treacherous winning was had by golden_c_turtle, over and over and over. She is a total doll. And then lots of girltalk was had while someotherguy attempted to get some work done. I have always enjoyed talking with dryadgrl, and it's been a while.

Way fun. We've missed having people over, and we should do it more.

by the way...

...that thud you'll hear around 6pm Pacific Time will be my head hitting the pillow, I'll bet. I'm getting too old to stay up until 3am on a worknight.

Okay, time to finish breakfast and go off to sell plates. Have a good day, all.

It's been such a weird food day.

breakfast: kielbasa and mayo on toast
lunch: open-faced Ikea tuna sandwich, chocolate mousse, mac-and-cheese, and OJ (all for 2 bucks)
dinner: cooking potstickers, but in the meantime I've eaten a sandwich of sweet pickles, red onion, and mayo on Struan bread, and a bowl of bananas with honey (thanks, dryadgrl) poured on them. I'm weird. I should do something odd to the potstickers just to be consistent.

Well, we all know that I love and adore Normal Bob and that he doesn't love me back, but now I love him even more:

And yes, I cyber-stalk my husbands. They know this and don't seem to mind. ;-)
