Another full weekend
This past weekend felt very long, yet before I knew it it was over. I got eight hours of overtime on Saturday at the absurd hours of 4 am to 12 pm... which ISN'T going to turn out to be overtime after all because we are on reduced coverage tomorrow due to the holiday and... dah-duh-duh-DAAAHHH!!! I don't get paid holidays. So while I won't be short any money due to missing tonight's shift, I won't have extra either. Oh well, given that I'm not being shorted in the long run I guess I can't really complain.
Friday night ran my Exalted game. cherith brought her black lab puppy who was too much cuteness for our little apartment to contain. He is a very good and friendly dog. Sunday we went over to Dean and Lesley's to bond with our kittens and wound up maybe reconsidering our choice. We still want the calico (and she really seems to want us!) but the mostly-black one we like doesn't seem to like us at all. We're going to give him more time as he just seems to be an easily-scared kitty in general. But he's got competition in the form of the other blakc-and-white one who has a little black spot on his chin like a goatee. It took us two tries to leave the room. The first time we tried, the calico shot out from the kitten pile which lay clustered around mama, meowing and squaling at us, acting like she didn't want us to go. The second time we tried, it was goatee-kitten's turn to do the same thing. We think Goatee might just be the adventurer of the group, though, so we're trying not to get too attached to his friendliness toward us. It's amazing how adorable these little guys are. They're like toddlers, the way they wobble along as they walk.
Sunday night was gaming at Adam and Amy's. We cut off early since I had to go to work. My trip to work was marked by my fourth run-in with the group of asshole biker boys who haunt the highway I use to go to work. It's a group of young guys all riding Kawasaki and Yamaha rice-burner bikes we love to weave in and out of traffic at speeds greater than 100mph and risk their own lives and everyone else's. I am utterly sick of these bastards. I just know it's a matter of time before they cause a bad accident.
I'm actually looking forward to having a night off tonight. Mel and I were just talking about how we never seem to have a night just to laze around the house.
