today, i had a gaming run. it was kinda funny. on wednesday, i was going to be going hiking today. then i wasn't. and then the next morning, i end up with a gaming run scheduled today. so, well, i went to a gaming run today. and it was pretty good run, too. no one died. and the person who i always hope will be there but who is usually there only about half the time, maybe less, was there, and that was definitely nice. also nice that there were only a few player there, so we really interacted, and it's always nice to have evidence that he doesn't hate me. i've been moderately stuck on the idea of being friends with him since i met him during R/O [Rush/Orientation] my freshman year [god, 6 years ago]. so, overall, good day.
it was also a very good food day. started off with breakfast at Sound Bites. it was amazing. it was very strange funny dinerish experience. to die for "homefries" that were really more like mashed potatoes thrown on a grill. must go back there. then, i came home and had more of the yummy new preserve-type things i bought -- morello cherry spread and ginger peach tea jam. yum yum yum. and then, after the run, we went to Punjabi Dhaba, "Indian Roadside Cafe" in Inman Square. it was fabulous. pretty cheap, and everything we had was good. must go back there, too.
actually, it was a good food weekend all around. House of Tibet for the first time (yes, must also go back there) Friday night. Fish cooking class at the {a href=http://www.ccae.org/}Cambridge Center for Adult Education Saturday afternoon. got the ginger peach tea jam and morello cherry spread from Cardullo's after class. just all really great.
all it all, it was a pretty good weekend. not universally perfect, but definitely on the positive side overall.
hrm. so i just read the previous entry, so i feel the need to give just a little more resolution. friday was great, it was perfect, it was lovely and wonderful and all sort of other good happy warm fun things.
saturday the cooking class went long and so after thinking long and hard about travel time i realized it would be mostly futile to try to go to the massfilc meeting, so i didn't. which was sad, but made my day a lot more sane. i wore the top with the insane cleavage and the skirt with the slits, because my housemates made me, which was probably the right choice, anyway, because it really was a pretty fabulous ensemble... i just wish it hadn't been so windy... definitely should have tried to make my hair behave better directly upon arrival instead of waiting most of the way through before looking at a mirror and being rather horrified by the unattractive dissarray, but i guess that's all sort of trivial... but at least a couple of the somewhat more serious [mostly social-dynamic] problems i expected might arise, did, which is a pity, but ah well. if the person you bring for moral support is simply feeling anti-social, there's just not much that can be done about it. and sometimes you just can't avoid saying that one stupid, hypocritical thing and then be annoyed with yourself afterwards because there's no way to repair the damage done. still, absolutely glad i went. overall, a good day.
