Weekend stuff

[yendi]

1. Helped Elayna's troop with their cookie sales. Was much fun.

2. Made a pasta sauce of garlicky doom. Well, doctored it, actually. Started with a bottled garlic and herb sauce. Added a pound of browned ground beef and six cloves of garlic. The kitchen still smells lovely.

3. Started a new Pronzini novel, Undercurrent. Am liking it just as much as the last one.

4. Found out that my favorite local comic shop closed. It's the same one that used to employ mightywombat. They had a good offer, financially, to sell the property, but it's still disappointing.

5. Played a game on Elayna's Nintendo DS that involved peeing. Seriously. My mom gave her Warioware: Touched for her birthday (along with the DS itself). The game is incredibly addictive, with hundreds of minigames, each of which is about six seconds long. One of them involves a classic-style cherub statue swinging on a rope and peeing, and you have to guide it to put out a fire. I seriously think that the Japanese game industry has a major drug problem. It's the only explanation.

Off to a meeting.

Of course they are. If I had to sit in a room and come up with hundreds of mini-games, I'd be begging for the good pills by game #197 or so.

Good point.
