Oh, two one, three...five?
May. 13th, 2007 10:16 pmI'm already experiencing mental dissonance from having a zip code that is one off from ZOOM's.
Things proceed apace. We have three movers coming by to give us estimates next week — sort of an academic exercise, so to speak, since BC is paying for the move, but we want to due our do diligence. (Wait. Strike that. Reverse it.)
adfamiliares has started packing, though we don't really have boxes yet, and I've culled a garbage bag's worth of clothing to donate/discard. (Farewell to my Dr. Huxtable sweaters — but not to my Hammer pants! They'll never get my Hammer pants.) Tomorrow we will be taken out for a farewell dinner by
adfamiliares's excellent colleagues; the day after, Chris W. will come to stay with us while he looks for an apartment, and perhaps enjoy some gaming with colleague Dan and family, if we can wangle it. Then K's sister and niece are supposed to visit on Thursday. Busy busy!
The week past has presented us with days warm enough to enjoy ice cream — a raspberry-and-white-chocolate something or other from the parlor down the street, and later a pint of Ben and Jerry's scrumptious cinnamon bun flavor — and the second season of The Office on DVD. (That show is really, really, really funny.) Friday evening, we went for an impulsive hike along the Kayaderosseras, during which we saw a leopard frog and a river deadfall that had somehow managed to engulf a picnic table.
And on Saturday, without the benefit of hints or walkthroughs, I finally finished Zelda: Twilight Princess with all twenty hearts and all 24 golden bugs — though a dozen Poes are still missing. (Darn Poes.) It was a pretty stupendous game, satisfying and balanced and elaborate and gorgeous to look at, with a storyline full of engrossing little details and a surprising number of hotties. (Hena, the fishing hole chick, is the cutest, sez me.)
