[i]jjmarika: Good weekend

Not terribly exciting, but fun. Friday night drove up to NH to have dinner with [info]sarrciano and his folks, then we hung out and watched some TV before crashing. (heated pads under sheets = win)

Saturday I hung out with [info]thedeviantangel and [info]silway for most of the day (with guest appearance by [info]quentarielf near the end), watching TV, chatting, watching [info]silway design a new magic card deck, and working on chain-mail jewelry projects. Was a lot of fun. Then, in the evening, I went out to Concord to go contra-dancing with Draco. That was a ton a fun. I haven't done it since college (and only once or twice there), and I'd forgotten how much fun it was. Both Draco and I were a bit lost a lot of the time, but people were fun and helped us out and it was cool. Also used the opportunity to catch him up on NERO stuff from the last Volta event. :) Looking forward to the feast and the one-day.

Sunday spent all day hanging out with [info]sarrciano. We drove up to his parents' place to watch the Pats game (our TV is not working), then tried to switch it out for another TV we had (but that didn't work either - sad), and did succeed in finding a cooking tool that he's going to need for Christmas. Just a low key fun day.

[i]callierat: A visual explanation of what happened in Volta

This is actually a brilliant creation of [info]jjmarika's.

I needed to share with the world. )

Link to the original artist who has some really fantastic creepy images.

[i]jjmarika: Happy Birthday!

To [info]keyla87!

Am trying to think of something positive to say about the weather today... How about: This seems to me to be a perfect evening for curling up with a hot drink?

I'm trying. Hope that you have a great day, regardless of the weather.

[i]jjmarika: Happy Birthday and a side note

Happy birthday to [info]tashewolf, [info]grumblykins and [info]crunkered!

And on a completely unrelated note, I found out this weekend that Omi is now 2 for 6 on realizing when she's talking to royalty. :sigh:

[i]jjmarika: Volta!

Was a pretty good event. The weather was sorta lousy all day Saturday, until it actually got cold enough that the snow stuck and didn't just make you wet, at which point it was sorta awesome. It was funny that the snow at the 3PM field fight sorta just made things cold, wet, and miserable, and the snow at the 8PM field fight just set the scene and added to it. (Sure it made us lose all of our packets, but once I started subbing in snowballs for spell packets the scene was complete.)

More highlights: )
