Why do I love these games so? I know that I used to relish the page of Highlights where you had to find things, but I don't remember being as obsessed as I am now. Since I don't want to pay $20 to beat a game I could do in several hours, though, I have to download free-trial games here and there, hardly ever finishing them before the hour-limit runs out on all the different servers that offer it free. Just now I'm almost done with "Interpol" and can't wait til Neil downloads Leopard on our Mac so I can get my fix on MSN games, where there's a glitch that lets you play the game until you win it if you never quit out.
Also, why aren't there more font options on here? This is so close to Times, which I've never liked, and the others are just Arial and Arial imitators, and they can go straight to hell.
But onto things that were good about today:
- Super fast work-day! (Although I suspect my boss's ticked because she thinks I gave her the flu. If I had sick days, this wouldn't be an issue.)
- Got a lot accomplished, errand-wise, and found a cheap ice-cream scoop with the springy thing to load cupcake batter.
- Neil came home early from the dentist, so we had a couple extra hours together. And he was awful cute.
- Technically, it was 50 degrees outside. Technically.
- We really didn't watch any TV.
- I finished the Monday NYTX in...5:50, I think? I also finished all but two letters on Tuesday. Both clues were about obscure types of hats. HATS.
- I discovered a new and delicious morning beverage: clear SF energy drink mixed with equal part orange juice. Yu-UM! Fizzy and fruity and filling!
- Neil's new vintage Nike kicks came in today, and he looked totally cute-hot in them, with his (my) matching green Packers sweatshirt.
- Just finished my green 8-glasses jug o' water.
- I'm definitely on the mend.
- It was so icky outside. It's a shame because we got this nice temp change, but when everything is so soggy and gray, with snow still on the ground, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.
- Emily had to go back to work today. That must have been super, super hard.
- I had a weird wave of nausea hit early this evening and had to lay-down-and-not-move for awhile.
- I don't feel very desirable
- The stupid gabby clerk at Linens N Things totally left my impulse-purchase small measuring cup out of the bag (it was only 99 cents, but I'm ticked because I know exactly why she left it out--she was gossiping to her fellow cashier instead of paying any attention to what she should have been).
- I didn't get to go swimming today, because I was hesitant to leave work without Bossie there to make sure it was okay to leave Tech Serv unmanned. And she never told me she was calling in sick.
