The grocery stores right now are particularly bad. I had to get a few things and I'm traumatized. I'll be travelling to Wisconsin/Minnesota. I'm a little scared about how much snow there's going to be. I love looking at snow, but not dealing with it. I will be happy when I'm settled in and drinking tea at my mom's,…

Friday night I also got really drunk, and I blame it on your post about cleaning and drinking on the happy holidays article. I was like "hey, Spice Weasel is drinking, and apparently so is everyone else, so what the hell am I doing sober right now?"

I haven't played Dishonored yet, I'm waiting for the price to drop more. I DID play FTL a whole bunch this weekend. I like it! Do you think it's a good idea to level up shields? I haven't so far, I go for engines. Also, have you used a crew transporter? That seems like a dangerous idea.

Ugh, repairs. I'm going to have to get Best Buy to fix my laptop (how can this thing be falling apart after like 7 months?) and I'm not looking forward to it.

I watched a lot of Futurama on Netflix…I had never seen an episode until this year. I think I'm all caught up now, now I understand why there are so many Bender avatars around.

Congrats on the writing gig, sounds promising.

I've heard very good things about Betrayal at the House on the Hill and I know my boardgame group has played it, but I still have not. Maybe someday. We played some Dominion this weekend (which I'm not crazy about) and Galaxy Trucker (which is a fun little game, I love it when other people have their ships blown…

I have played all the expansions. In fact, just this weekend we tried out the new ferry expansion (it's alright). It's a wonderful game, one of my all time favorites.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly freaks me out because that could pretty much happen to anyone at anytime and what a horrible thing to have happen. One day you are fine and then bam you can't move or do anything and you have to blink to communicate. I can't imagine having to endure that.

Simple, yet effective. I know what you watched and how you felt.

Online dating isn't so much terrifying as it is exhausting. Having to repeat the same thing over and over again, having to answer the same questions, trying to think of something to write. I stopped trying when I realised that it's preferable to be alone than to have to deal with the trouble and the amount of time it…
