Wait, what?
How did this happen? I'm available all day tomorrow, until the evening. And! I ACTUALLY HAVE A COMPLETELY FREE DAY ON SUNDAY. This fact is completely deserving of all-caps, because it hasn't happened in months. No, really. I checked.
Since derby practice is cancelled tomorrow, but I still want to skate, I have a crazy idea: strap on my outdoor wheels, and do the Where's Waldo event. Or something without skates. I don't know what other folks are up to tomorrow, so I'm open to suggestions.
So, yes, if anyone's up for some low-key hangout time this weekend, let me know. :)

As for the aforementioned karaoke contest, I have learned, once again, that being more talented and less popular does not make you a winner. ;p It was decided by audience vote, which should have been my first clue that being awesome wasn't likely to carry me through.
I won't venture so far as to say I was the absolute best, because there *were* one or two people I wouldn't have minded losing to. But, I did kick a whole lot of ass, and the person who DID take home the prize was so mediocre that I'd forgotten she'd even participated in the contest, until they announced her as the winner. Still, I had a good time, and I owe a debt of gratitude to the friends of mine who came out to see me so late on a Thursday night. :)
Also, I recently got a killer deal on a fancypants Kitchen Aid knife set, and it came in the mail yesterday. I'm absurdly happy about the fact that I finally, finally have my own santoku knife. All I did was prep some veggies for my giant dinner salad last night, and I'm already in love. I need an excuse to cook on a grander scale, and SOON.
Speaking of, if anyone wants my old knife set, they're welcome to have it. Nothing fancy, just serrated knives on a block, but they're pretty decent.
And, I'm off like a dirty shirt.
