Last Sunday
hotarugirl still wasn’t feeling well, and
lildomino was itchy from accidentally exposing herself poison ivy, so we skipped going to the museum and just stayed in and hung out.
lildomino’s air conditioner died, so we went to my place to watch Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Venture Bros. Even though illness and itchiness limited what we could do last weekend, it was still wonderful to just spend a quiet weekend hanging out with
lildomino and
hotarugirl.
Last Monday I got a vasectomy.
lildomino went with me, and took care of me while I recovered. While I sat unmoving with a lapful of ice we hung out and watched Super Size Me and Mystery of the Nile. At 6 PM I went over to
icespark’s for MUX night.
icespark grilled some of my favorite food for dinner, and then I got distracted from the MUX by Bones and House. I did eventually focus and have fun on the MUX - I got to temp Red Alert and get into a big confrontation with (original character) Dust Devil. Ah, geek amusement!
Tuesday I had off work again to recover from the vasectomy. I had big plans for being productive all day, but any time I actually have time to journal of course I don’t feel in the mood to write. I did work on my Star Trek campaign for
mishiell, and then I snuggled with
icespark to start watching Bones from the pilot and season one. Around seven
lildomino picked me up and I spent the rest of the night at her place, playing on my laptop, doing more work for Star Trek, and generally procrastinating instead of journaling.
lildomino even turned off the TV so I could concentrate, but no go.
Wednesday I had to return to work, and after work I went to
mishiell’s to role-play. We progressed further in her campaign, and
mishiell got an opportunity to discover more about what might have happened to her character and how she got into her current situation. Unfortunately I was a little distracted and tired, so I told some of what I should have showed, but it was a fun time nonetheless.
Thursday I got to drive down to visit
she_oft_sings and see her now apartment (which is roomy and spiffy). I haven’t gotten to hang out and talk with
she_oft_sings one-on-one in ages, and we stayed up rather late catching up and watching cool videos that she made. We didn’t get enough of a chance to get to know each other the first time we hung out, so I’m hoping this will give us an opportunity to restart and grow our friendship.
