Another Family and Friends Weekend
Well, my parents were up this weekend... they just left about an hour ago.
They showed up Friday after I failed epically at keeping the Discworld game PG-13 as per Emma's request, but the request was because we thought her parents would be there, but they weren't, so my inappropriate jokes about my sea cucumber were fine.
(Igor, in case you're curious, has discovered that he's infected by Narration molecules and therefore is about as locked into his destiny as humanly possible. Jenna's vampire has more-or-less unofficially hired him on.)
(I've just realized that I have created a Hyuuga/Young Frankenstein crossover. MLIA.)
ANYWAY, parents up, not so stressful, really, although Dad did contrive to complain about the hotel room and location at every turn. We went to the Teapot, which was good because I've been craving me some sushi lately, and then we hung around the room and tried to find something on TV. Slept in until 12:30 as a unit on Saturday, so we woke up and went to Rao's. I had a cupcake and hot chocolate while wearing my half-assed L costume (because the L costume is actually just a normal outfit), and I amused myself by pretending that someone else would notice and write on their twitter, "Watching a girl dressed like L eat a large cupcake in character. MLIA."
It rained all day, so we stopped back at my room and watched The Worlds Drunkest Man Buys Beer, a 30 Rock, and an Office episode, because my mom and I are nerds that way, and then we walked around campus a little... nothing too exciting. We stopped at a bookstore in Amherst and I gravitated towards the cookbooks as per usual. Eventually we decided to get real food, so we went to Pasta E Basta, where I got a delicious calzone with just a tad too much ricotta (I have some dairy issues), but the important part is that I got a big slice of tiramisu afterwards. Tiramisu is my favorite, favorite, favorite dessert ever. I love it like Hyuugas.
Then we went to Paranormal Activity, which is REALLY well done! It's not terrifying, but it's plenty suspenseful and scary enough to give you a good adreneline rush. We all enjoyed it. We screamed at the end, but I scream for no reason, so it's not quite as impressive as Brad screaming.
And then today we got breakfast, walked around North Hampton, and then they dropped me off and left. And now I have a ton of homework. Ah well.
