good weekend
Saturday was consuming in the most decadent laziness. I got up at 8 to feed the cats (having finally gone to bed around 3), then went back to sleep until 11, pottered until 1 when I made breakfast :-). Talked to my folks, did some assembly of models for the Warhammer 40K tournament I was playing in on Sunday, and watched various bits of telly. *Didn't* do laundry (tonight I must, or at least really ought to), but I cleaned up the kitchen a bit.
Sunday I trundled off to Chantilly and played in the aforementioned tournament. My army of Eldar (think "elves in space") went 0-2-1, but I was there more for the experience and the chance to meet new opponents (which I did; my three games were with three complete strangers). Over lunch I realized I had downtime and nothing to read (!!) so I stopped at the closest thign the shopping center has to a bookstore (all books 50% off, but a huge selection of, ahem, adult magazines) and bought a copy of Lloyd Alexander's The Castle of Llyr, which I remembered enjoying tremendously as a kid. It's still wonderful. :-)
After the tournament was over, I went on to my next engagement, dinner with the lovely and charming![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sharrainchains. We had a delicious dinner, then hung out at her place and talked about books and movies until she detected a yawn or two and sent me on my way so I would be fresh for work the next day. What a simply wonderful lady she is! I'm terrifically smitten.
