pseydtonne: Behold the Operator, speaking into a 1930s headset with its large mouthpiece. (Default)
On Saturday I went to brunch. It was good to see [livejournal.com profile] hakamadare and a lot of others. After his advice, I'm going to try Freevo instead of MythTV. Geek cut. )

I saw Dresden Dolls open for Rasputina in Providence on Saturday with [livejournal.com profile] lightfixer and [livejournal.com profile] penghuin (I don't know that Penguin has an LJ, so I'll use his pseudonym and leave it at that) (update: thank you, [livejournal.com profile] dilletante!). I had a great time, and Dresden Dolls completely stole the show. That drummer is so disciplined yet has so much fun.

Sunday I ran some errands in the early afternoon. When I got back, it was just shy of three and the sky was simply glowering but hadn't burst. When I walked outside at 5 pm, everything was covered in a fresh few inches of snow. Then is why I didn't see the ice patch and I fell on my right arm around the elbow.

Yes, I'm still sore. Driving stick isn't too painful, but cutting the prime rib at the office party became a chore. Oh yeah, there was an office party. Karaoke. Oh, and I won a wireless router.

When I got home, I used my wounded arm to lean up. Thank you, Midol. I took out the recycling, cleaned off the dining table and some of the living room, and watched Adult Swim.

[livejournal.com profile] chaggalagirl bought me a Magna Doodle! I'd seen ads for this thing years ago but didn't know they still existed. I played with one for the first time about a month ago when we visited her cousins in Manchester. If you've never seen one, it's a magnetic stylus that you move across a field of magnetized powder packets. it gives you strange halftone control. It's also a great toy for killing time in front of the TV.

-feeling better, Dante
