I stayed home and bought absolutely nothing. I had to drive down to Portland and pick Jason up and drive back to Freeport because he is a retail wage slave and had to start work at 6 AM and the trains and buses don't run that early around here.
Another fine batch of reviews, good sir. I loved the original Sonic games, even if they were frustrating and I was never able to beat the first two. The third one I really liked, though. I might, if I ever get a Wii U, check out Sonic Boom. Doesn't sound too bad to me.
None of that Black Friday bullshit for me. I'm broke this year, so everyone who didn't get something purchased before I got laid off gets something handmade. I meant to be stitching away today, but I had to get up and drive down and pick Jason up by 5:30 AM so I could get him to work by 6:00 AM, since he's a retail wage slave. Public transportation in Maine doesn't start that early, and he's never had a driver's license. I never got back to sleep, even though I tried, so I'm a little out of it today. Been watching Netflix for the most part.
Romo has some of the worst luck. I always feel bad for him because he is a good quarterback. Unfortunately, those bad luck moments usually happen at the worst possible moments. As for picking him, Jason had a bad number in his draft and I think Romo was the best of the choices when his turn finally rolled around. He plays in a huge fantasy league, I think there are over 20 of them.
As for Soph, I happened to be watching her when coffee was poured for dessert yesterday, and she pretty much emptied the entire contents of the sugar bowl into her cup. Ben, Jason's youngest brother, and I just watched in silence for a moment and then one of us commented "Having a little coffee with that sugar, Sophie?"
Really like the light in that photo.
Jason won't be happy - Romo is his fantasy quarterback. I didn't get any football watching in today, too busy socializing with Jason's family. His nieces are a hoot - the fifth grader is no longer allowed to walk to school because she was stopping at Tony's Donuts on the way and gettting coffee for her and her best friend and the guys at the donut shop weren't charging them. First thing the parents knew about it, they got an email from Sophie's teacher asking them to have Sophie stop bringing coffee to class. Can't make this stuff up with this kid, she's an original, that's for sure!
It's a bit better than ok. You're too modest.
Yeah, the electricity was back on when I woke up, the thermostat just resets to 50 when the power goes out. I was plenty warm and didn't have to resort to the cold weather sleeping bag, Bandit and Kaylee put out a lot of heat, and they were pretty snuggly last night.
One of the special moves you get for the Jew class is jew jitsu.
Ninety? Ugh. I prefer my weather, thanks.
Mmm....for me it would be Agents of SHIELD first, then Constantine and Arrow. Gotham did nothing for me, and The Flash is only OK. I liked the one that was on in the early 90s better, and the other comic book series I really liked was Birds of Prey. I have the only season of that that was put out on DVD.
The Fellowship of the Ring is my favorite of the three books, and The Two Towers is my least favorite. I used to memorize the poems in The Fellowship, that's how much of a nerd I am.
I like the cold. It's the heat I can't stand. I don't usually turn on the heat in the house until as close to November 1st as possible, and the temp has to be below 55 in the house before that happens. I was pretty toasty last night in just my normal blankets, and the pets like to snuggle with me this time of year anyway. It was only bad when I had to get up.
