I've Been in My PJs All Day

It's been lovely.
Last night was a lot of fun. In all, 9 people were here, all of my upstairs neighbors, plus Jerry and his friend and Y. The curry was excellent (if I do say so myself); the beverages free-flowing; and the conversation was good. Jerry and his friend left around 9:30(?) and, then, the rest of us played this game called "Catchphrase."

I guess everyone (except Y) left around 11:30. I managed to get the house relatively clean and the dishes (mostly) done by midnight. Then, I went to bed.

It was very nice to sleep in this morning. And I worked on making my Friday plan a reality: I got up, made coffee, and spent the rest of the day on the sofa watching DVDs (in particular, Project Runway Season 1).

Y was trying to do work while I was watching PR1, and, at one point, closed his laptop and said, "I can't do any work with the TV on."

"OK," I replied and continued watching TV. He packed up his stuff and left. I'm not really sure what he was expecting. Me to turn off the TV? I have very little desire to cater to his needs ... especially when he is not meeting mine (or even attempting to meet mine. Not that I want certain "needs" to be met by him, btw).

Anyway, I knitted and watched TV. Knit. TV. Knit TV. Once I got to the final 2 shows of PR1, I called Tomoko to see if she wanted to come. We had a coupla drinks and watched the final shows.

Now, I'm having leftovers ... and later on, I think I might watch more TV. And maybe knit.

A perfect day, really.

Oh, and since I forgot to take pictures yesterday (other than of the neighbors in the Turkey Chase Race), here's a photo of my yummy leftovers:

    Um -- So, Y really expected that you should change your plans just for him? In your own apartment? I.Don't.Think.So.

    Time for him to step to the curb.

    Nobody asked Y to study on your sofa. Sometimes he can be a jerk...

    Anyways, I still have PR 2 and 3 DVDs...until I get a cable on Dec. 1! Whoo Hoo!

    Oh, BTW, curry was yummy. Thanks!

I'm Back (from Vacation)

 I'm back. I will be posting about my vacation soon.  Well, soonish ... maybe this weekend.  I dunno. Also, I came back to a big pile of stress at work.  Good times. Can I go on vacation again?  (Why, yes. Yes, I can.  I'll be flying to Atlanta for Pesach.  Just the weekend.  Not the whole dang thing.  My body needs gluten. And, then, a quick trip to NC in early May to see the 'rents.) ANYWAY.  Israel and Latvia posts coming up. Stay tuned. Or just look at the pix on my IG. *hugz*

If We Took a Holiday ...

 Happy Presidents' Day! Since I last posted, so much has happened ... I think.   I was going to bake my parents heart-shaped biscuits, because -when we were wee lads- my mom used to bake my brother and I heart-shaped biscuits on Valentine's morning.  They were not as good as the biscuits I make now. However, after I grated the frozen butter in my food processor, I tipped it out into the flour and the handle on the food processor broke.  The bowl fell into the flour.  I dug out a few pieces of plastic and a spring, and I threw it all in the trash.  I called the manufacturer.  They are sending me a new bowl ... in 2-3 weeks.  UGH.  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE BISCUITS NOW?!?!? The SigNoth caught a cold, so Valentine's Day was even more of a bust.  Not that I really buy into the whole pseudo-holiday thing anyway. Saturday, I did my taxes. Refund, yay!  And, I ordered some nice stationery.  I thought it would be fun to use my fa...

Too Early But Not Early Enough

 6:00AM. With the new normal, I should be on a bus to the metro station, where I board a train and then another train to arrive at my office bright and early and chipper as a newborn squirrel. Today is special, though.  It's Pottery Class Registration Day.  Which is surprisingly competitive.  The DMV has too many Type A Soccer Moms (and Dads). In order to register for class, I have to log on at 6:30AM and hope the Pottery Gods are kind to me in the registration queue.  We shall see ... so exciting. After I register, I will then board a bus and a train ... and another train to get to my office.  Depending on what time I arrive, I will either work late (ugh) or take some leave (also, ugh).  Being totally honest, I will more than likely take leave because I hate being at work late.   This would be a perfect day to telework.  If we were allowed to telework.  Too bad Danger Yam (as one of my mutuals calls He Who Must Not Be Named) thinks...
