weekend update and the coolest gaming idea EVAR.

it is snowing. the first part of a major winter storm - so says the npr weather report. we are supposed to have an inch on the ground by noon.

but it is 35 degrees out and was in the high 40's all weekend.

this weekend was really cool.
i came home with a headache on friday that made me grumpy.
and even grumpier when ross tried to make me watch movie trailers on a blurry screen with the headache (blurry due to being pumped from the computer to the tv - big pictures work great, but itty bitty text notsomuch).
we decided not to go see a movie, because there were none we wanted to see. so we got olive garden take out and watched a netflix movie about john cusack camping with his son and morgan freeman as an assassin stuck in the same woods.

saturday was truly awesome in every way despite my waking up at 7:30 and not being able to go back to sleep. ryan gronhke came over to hang out. ross fixed his computer while i went to the grocer and the butcher. i spent $140 on meat. this is not to say i got a lot of expensive things. this is to reveal to you the extent to which we had no meat in the house. and okay, that also included a cabbage and some deli-sliced colby-jack....but still! i haven't been eating any meat for 2 months and there was NO meat in the house. now there all kinds of chicken, sausage, steaks, sandwich stuff and corned beef brisket for st. patty's day....ross is much happier. i still felt a little outrageous.

( not your mom's mage game )

we drank too much wine and grilled pork chops, zuchinni and portabella mushrooms for dinner. dawn came over and joined us and it was the best time i can remember having in the recent past.

sunday was very casual i woke up at 8 (a little better), goofed off on the computer and watched raising helen (sucked) and frida (made of awesome because everything julie taymore touches turnes to genius) with ross. made corned beef and cabbage - ross and i both got upset stomachs from that.
it was good to have a lazy day because he has to work the gaelic storm concert tonight and i'm going to go see boiled in lead with ryan and susan. looks like i may be invited to a knitting get together tomorrow too, which is good because i need to get cranking on my brioche hat for ross. i frogged the whole thing this weekend. i just hope i've figured out what i was doing wrong.
woot!
