Because its a journal.
I last updated on 29 october.
So fast rundown. Nothing of interest, but just to keep up and thank yous to all my meetups the last few weeks.
Weekend of Nov 10, 11: Sat: Had lunch with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
barnabas_truman and serendipity17.
Sunday: Day withgroblek and kay_gmd. Due to weather, time and distance, outing became mulling leisurely and cozily over tea in samovar and G's homemade scones. Numb. Headed to Sac, Beers Books.
Loaded up a basket, but then kept budget in mind.
Going back as soon as I pay remaining bills and see what's left.
I've decided I do need more poetry books---internet is fine for fast look ups. It's god awful for relaxing reads and memorizations.
Monday off, of course. Not much done.
4 day work week. Small victory at work, that I can't explain. Involves Outlook. Feeling victorious. Again, can't explain this one unless you're in an office with exploding priorities.
Friday went to Fajita and Bitch. Wonderful, wonderful company. warm, insightful and silly. Ought to be bottled.
Sat, bit of a headache, that decided my sinuses were the weekend B&B. However, finished up some chores early, booted the rest, and decided to treat myself to Sacramento. Met up withelhoff and aleeceh and indigowombat. Decided to add xot to the flist, and he may have raised my estimates of Fruits Basket. Which I didn't think was possible. And recommend Cafe Bernardo Salmon BLT.
Back to Hare House. Fun had by all, costuming amazing, and the Army sent us a present. And I can recommend this establishment's clam and abalone chowder. I think that vanquished the headache for the evening.
The ladies were lovely, and DAMN the men looked fine. No man should be allowed to attain his majority without the purchase of one tux and one frock coat.
Tuxes and frock coats made good appearances this weekend. Yay.
Sunday. Thought headache was finished...no, it came back. Awake at 8.30. Took painkillers, and web reading homework, and back to bed with tea.
Woke at 11. Realized I was not going to get my drive in the country. Took the useless pseudo-psudafed, and back to bed. Thought I awoke at 12.30. Rexamine clock. No...that's 2.30. Soup, with a bit of hot sauce, more tea, back to bed.
Was disappointed I didn't drive, put up the tree, or cook the roast Mr. Snuffy thawed, or laundry or finish sorting clothes---but pleased at how much reading, re-reading and notes I did.
Honest to god study time---and it was fun.
I think I've finally got the structure and styling elements and attributes, and box models memorized and in the head. But yeah, mostly slept off the drugs and headache until about 9pm last night.
Finished first season of Ugly Betty. Need lots of video tape for remaining season.
