We had a decent weekend, and a fairly productive one! Saturday, I rearranged the furniture in our front room, creating a much more usable space around The Mighty Table. Despite my best efforts, I was unable to locate the character sheets and game notes for the next installment of the Firefly game. Instead, we played Lunar Rails, a complicated game involving crayons and railways between Lunar settlements, and deliveries of scientists to Tycho and the like. [livejournal.com profile] anidada won, while I was busily running a shipment of diamonds across the Dark Side of the Moon.

Sunday was church and a relaxed afternoon of haircuts and family time. [livejournal.com profile] velvetpage managed to get a lot done on her book, and I was feeling pretty creative myself. Did a bit of writing on a freelance contract.

I had all sorts of curious dreams on the weekend, including one in which I drove along a single lane road that lead to "Spring", and as I drove the weather got warmer and flowers appeared. I also had a weird dream about trying to catch a translucent vampiric insect that lived in our bath tub.


And today, new LJ friend [livejournal.com profile] theycallmebeth happened to be downtown, so we met at the Second Cup near my office, then walked up to sample the head-sized soup on Church Street! And lo, both soup and company was good.

Hathead!!

Thanks for a fun lunch! The soup really was as big as my head.

Geez, she looks like a jolly dutch woman. Sorta reminds me my mom's sisters.

I don't think I've ever been called that before. :)

I am jolly, though!

You have a lot of facial features in common with my very dutch aunts, are you sure you're not secretly dutch? <3

I'm 99% certain. I did date someone Dutch once, but I suppose that doesn't count.

Yes, being dutch is contagious. *noddles* XD

Well now I'm curious, do you know your ancestry? I mean, it's at least european right? I try not to blurt it out too often (it makes me sound racist ;.; ) but I really find that sort of heredity by appearance thing interesting. ^.^

All right, then! :)

And yes, yaaaay! You're very cute too.

That's one impressive-sized soup.
If you find that road again, please note directions on how to get there.

Well, in my dream it was just off the QEW corridor from Toronto to Buffalo!

Your obvious desire to be headed for spring already amuses me, especially right after I read [livejournal.com profile] andpuff's entry which linked this blog entry (http://the-legion-of-decency.blogspot.com/2009/01/lazy-sunday-54-crashed-ice.html) about how Canadians are just a little mental when it comes to winter.
