Four hours at Barnes and Noble is too long without Internet access, but $4 isn't too bad for two hours...

Jodi, Amanda, and Katie are playing Harry Potter UNO. Suzanne, Jackson and I are reading (I'm reading Fast Girls: Teenage Tribes and the Myth of the Slut.)

Amanda and I watched the last episode of Season 2 of Babylon 5 last night, so the astronomy book called Nightwatch creeped us out a bit. :)

Picnic

We hosted a picnic this weekend and it went pretty well: lots of food, no food poisoning or irreversible property damage, and a good time was had by most. That's about as good as one can hope for.

The watermelon and dips were mainly ignored, but even the carnivores among the crowd seemed to find the fake meat palatable. The pasta salad is now gone; we still have about two and a half watermelons and loads of other good things left over.

As [livejournal.com profile] segnbora noted, there was no swimming involved, but perhaps next time we'll make it a pool party. And I think there will be a next time, since this one was such fun.

I got my advance copies of Computers In Libraries Thursday, and showed my article to Jodi's side of the family while we were there. We attended a wedding (I'll give details in private, since I think very few people here know the former Miss Y. Gagne) and then returned to Tampa.

I cleaned up the living room, cleaned the kitchen, cooked rice bread and curry and brownies and other good stuff, and took a break before cleaning the master bedroom and attached bathroom.

We had snacks and a few drinks at [livejournal.com profile] segnbora and [livejournal.com profile] tregoweth's place, an event which was repeated last night by [livejournal.com profile] jitterbug5bi5 without us, but possibly to be repeated tonight WITH us. (Or with [livejournal.com profile] turtlebat23, anyway, since I'll be in class until 10pm and home around 11pm.)

And on top of all that goodness, [livejournal.com profile] jitterbug5bi5 is on track to get paid twice this month, which will make everyone involved very happy. I hate mixing friendship with landlordism; neither purpose is well-served by the combination.

So now all I have to worry about is a friend in Gainesville who's having major psychiatric problems; she's in good hands, though, so I imagine my prayers for her are superfluous.
