melcharBusy weekend just passed. Especially Saturday.
Fridau night tried Persian food for the first time ever. I had eggplant! With a yoghurt topping(!) And it tasted -good-! Also had a stew/soup thing that had chickpeas, beans, grain - and a yoghurt sauce on it. That was also good. Tried bites of everything and could (a) eat everything [ie nothing was so spicy that I couldn't eat it] - (b) it all tasted pretty good. And then boojum treated us all. Very nice dinner - and the company was superb, too.
Then on Saturday went to the FC 06 con exec meeting in the morning and had a -wonderful- breakfast [french toast, eggs, fruit, bacon] made by Squirrel. Was excellent! The meeting went well - and I was completely amused to see cooperative sneaky ferret behavior as they dragged my insole away. Then the FC 05 firing party was very sweet. Got a chance to see folks and chat. And after that went for Japanese dinner with Genevive [while Trey got a burger] - and had the absolutely -best- tempura I've had in years! And after that Trey & I went to the Matt/Kim Zoo party and had a heckuva time. Saw people I haven't seen in years! Hugged a lot of them. ^_^ And thought that Victor was perhaps the cutest person I've -ever- seen in a toasted condition. Heck, if alcohol could only affect -everyone- that way I'd consider it a mandatory sacrament!
Sunday was pretty fun too. Vargr, boojum & Lynn came over and we played 'Wizards'. Of course it then became the game from hell that -would- -not- -end- - and that I spent the first 7 hours of unable to get past 'apprentice' level. Game went almost 9 hours before we gave up on it. But Lynn made cookies and Vargr brought snacks and it was mostly pleasant. Helped that it was a nice rainy day.
