Another good weekend! Huz... yay!
So Dave came down last weekend... and Andy was free, so the three of us hung out on Saturday. Good times, good times... sushi was expensive but good, junk food was expensive but good, and the games were free! Yay free!
We tried to go to Blackfriars, but it wasn't open (we got there at 2:30, and on Saturdays they open at 5). Ah well... as mentioned above, the sushi was an acceptable replacement.
And then Andy tried DDR... and she looks purty in the shorts I lent her.
[sigh]
I really, really need to get over this quickly. Dave pointed out very accurately that Andy is extremely cool and as a result I have to try harder not to screw things up (his words were more along the lines of "I know you Marc... be careful." Wish I could say he was wrong).
Anyway, that's neither here nor now... Andy loves DDR! Huzz... yay! And I ordered the turkey and lamb for my post-Thanksgiving dinner (gotta find a good lamb recipe now... I hope you can pot-roast a leg of lamb!)... ooh, and I gotta figure out how to transport it to my house. Maybe I'll strong-arm Harry into giving me a lift... there are some benefits to owning a car, apparently.
So, the pieces are in place... all that's needed now is the end-game. I'll have 2 actual Konami DDR pads (hopefully), both mics for Karaoke Revolution, 4 bongos for Donkey Konga (YAY!), but only 1 guitar for Guitar Hero... gotta see if I can scare up a second one for either really cheap or free (which would be better). And chairs... I'll be short on chairs.
I should also finish unpacking my crap so that I have as much floor-space as possible... maybe even rotate my bookshelf 90 degrees. Huh. Woulda been smart to get Dave to help with that... ah well. Still like 5 weeks to go.
And I'm still bummed that Bonnie won't be coming... but whatever. Trying not to focus on it too much.
Ooh, I also painted the models for RoboRally... horribly geeky thing to do, but most of 'em look pretty good. Except Hammerbot... the black-wash makes him look dirty, but not in a good-grimy sorta way (in a poorly-painted sorta way). I've tried touching him up afterwards, but it's not working... maybe I should try an orange-wash? Hmmm... I'll ask the guys at Games Workshop when I buy the pink paint I'll need (to make Chantal's Carcasonne guy's pink... women are crazy, man).
