had the car towed to the shop at 7:30am on thursday morning after the engine started trying to bounce itself out from under the hood. luckily for me and my bank account, it was just a spark plug wire which popped off. of course, i was embarrassed i didn’t just look under the hood to see — and fix — that myself. ohwell. at least my bcaa membership came in useful.
chris & mel came over for butter chicken and hockey friday night. fun was had all the way through to the second overtime. it’s hard to believe it took over two years to have them over. now that they know just how yummy that butter chicken is, i think they’ll be trying to invite themselve over much more often!
spent most of saturday & sunday outside in the gorgeous sunshine and enjoyed every second of it (even the many, many seconds when the decision to not have coffee saturday morning came back to haunt me saturday evening). took a fair number of photos, most of which didn’t even suck. that was a nice surprise.
i even got to meet christopher’s parents’ new puppy which arrived by air from alberta this very morning. she was still a little shell-shocked, but pretty cute, for a dog.
i dreamt about lots and lots of kittens last night. why don’t more people i know have kittens for me to play with?
the real treat for this beautiful spring weekend: i haven’t cleaned one damn thing. my apartment is pretty messy, the dishes are piled up and i’m not sure i have any clean pants to wear to work tomorrow, but i’m not giving a damn right now. i’m enjoying the sloth. i think i deserve it. at least a little bit.
