Tuesday: power

Tonight our power went out. It's the first time since we've been here that it has gone out while we were at home. It was almost fun. :) Then we went out to Bible Study and the roads were really bad. We probably should have canceled. One of these days we'll figure out when to cancel and when not to. The roads going home were still bad, but not quite so bad. At least we didn't have to dodge any pickup trucks perpendicular to the highway or people deciding to walk right in front of us like we did on the way there. :s

Monday: happy car

Today our car got to go to the doctor. It got some new belts, the fuel line fixed, and the air conditioning compressor disconnected. It turns out that the annoying scary squeal was from the ac compressor. So right now we don't have the squeal but we also don't have a/c either.

Sunday: superbowl

We had a superbowl party at our house tonight. It was a lot of fun. I was cheering for the Saints (for no real reason) so was excited that they won. I feel like I won something important even though I didn't really decide who I was rooting for until about five minutes into the game. Hugh got really angry the exact same time the Saints scored a TD, and the look on his face was priceless. We also had some delicious cheese fondue and a bunch of other good food. Oh, and the Doritos commercials were by far the best. We were all laughing at most of them.

Saturday: !

By popular demand, here is Amalle in her new tabard:

and no, no calluses. I've been about 10 quests away for quite a while now, so I finally finished them off this morning.

In other news, the day went much better than I was expecting. Ben and I also went grocery shopping together which was oddly fun. And we got donuts!! Flurry is now napping in my lap which makes me happy.

Saturday morning: too much WoW?

For all of you non-WoW players, it means that I have done a majority of the quests in the game.

Friday: a nice day

Today I only had to work about a half day, which was wonderful. Then I had a nice lunch with Jess, a long nap, and then pizza with Dusty and Laura.

I also managed to make myself bleed without actually cutting through the skin. I thought it was a pretty amazing feat.

Thursday: Amanda

So the latest thing on Facebook is to look up your name in urban dictionary. "How dumb," I thought. But I thought I'd look it up anyway. And it turned out to be so cool that I couldn't not share it.

"A woman named Amanda is typically very beautiful with an incredible body and nice eyes. They are known to be very loveable. Amandas are envied by other women."

I also started working on pillowcases to go with the quilt. It's interesting trying to make something with the remaining cloth. Some colors I have lots of and some colors barely have any.
