weekend in review
Dec. 14th, 2003 09:12 pmI am feeling much better :) Despite all the non-drowsy cold caps in the house, I decided I needed the nighttime variety and got some at the grocery. NOW I remember why I don't take those often - they kick like a mule! But they do a fantastic job of keeping me off my feet and properly rested. Still a bit of scratchiness in my throat, but nothing hot cocoa can't fix ;)
Did some sewing on the stays (by hand, so as not to break needles on the bones), and some jewelry repair. I also finished the bulk of my holiday cards and lifted freeweights, so my hands and arms are well and fully exhausted!
Watched part of the new Battlestar Galactica series;
shemhazai - tell yer Man that leggy Cylon chicks are a dime a dozen and the (female!) Starbuck is clearly where it's at ;) Seriously - I watched the original as a kid but barely remember it; based on the very few vintage episodes I've seen since, this movie is a vast improvement - at the very least, the acting is far and away better than the 1970s version. Evidence of how good Sci-Fi can do when they want to (just why don't they want to more often? [cough]Farscape[cough]).
Also went out and got a few odds and ends in addition to the usual groceries, and found it's amazing how the smallest things will pick you up. Got a bottle of my favorite cheapie lotion; nothing new but it's familiar and feels good. Also found a shaving brush for D. and he was far more thrilled than I expected him to be. Also got shampoo/conditioner for color treated + fine hair, in the hopes that I can put some body back into this limp mop without losing my purple..
Due to bad weather/lethargy decided to skip rapier today; won't meet again until the new year, but I'll live. Am valiantly going to try and do foil this week if I can get my buddies to come out.
Must get back to work tomorrow which I'm semi-dreading.
