This weekend I accomplished the following:
- Wrote an extremely long, confusing rundown/how-to on shopping for SCA purposes in Indian shops
- Saw Underworld: Awakening with Jennie and T. It was worth the matinee price, but I’m glad I didn’t see it in 3D. I will likely see the next one (and the movie strongly suggests that there will be a next one).
- Ate all the sugar ever and lost at Apples to Apples at Jennie’s b-day shindig, which was thoroughly awesome. D and N brought waffles from Waffle House. Like, 10 of them in their own individual containers. With butter. And syrup. SO AWESOME.
- Made it past the first round of the big toothy thing at the Sealed Grounds in Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (actually, I did very little aside from directing WH while he beat all the hard stuff; I mostly just collected bugs and rupees).
- Bought a reasonable amount of interesting foodstuffs at the Buford Highway Farmer’s Market, which is like a destination in itself for food shopping. Among the things I purchased: fresh ramen noodles, dried kiwi, and a Lion bar (which was promptly eaten).
- So while it looks as though I did things this weekend, my house is still a mess and I still have to put photos into the behmoth of a document that I created. I have permission to use the office projector, so that’s good, but getting the images I need for said projection may be a challenge. Oof.
Bonus for Monday: new Vampire Diaries episode streaming on CW online! I consider it to be the Twinkies of the tv world – you know it’s not terribly good for you, and yet it is still delicious.
I’m so excited about the shopping instructions! What a great idea!
Also, the Buford Highway Farmer’s Market is so awesome.
We’ll see how the shopping goes… I tend to over-elaborate. I also have very little background in Persian and other Eastern textiles, so this may end up totally off the mark. Jadi’s helping out and bringing books, so maybe I’m just stressing needlessly.
I hadn’t been to the BuHi Farmer’s Market in years. The last time I went it was fun, but sort of grimy and disorganized. Sometime recently they remodeled and reorganized, and it’s SUPER. I am totally won over.
