Two-day catch-up

[avram]

Friday:

I’ve got some freelance photo-editing work, starting Monday.

Dumped a big check in the bank. It won’t clear till Monday, leaving me with no money for the weekend. Killed four hours in Manhattan by reading In Green’s Jungles and sketching Starbucks customers.



At Games Club, played Overthrone. We figured it out despite the badly-written rules. An entertaining game with some cute mechanical bits, but with a large luck component.

Not one, but two games of Puerto Rico! And the second game was played with only four players, which was exotic for our crowd, where the game is popular enough that you can have two five-player games going at the same time.

I blew my last two dollars on a bagel with lox spread on the way home.

Saturday:

Gaming at drcpunk’s. She did a pretty good job of jumping between the multiple fight scenes. After, she, Beth, and mnemex treated me to sushi and sashimi as a week-early birthday present.

DrCpunk and Mnemex are also getting rid of a bunch of books, and I wound up coming home with a bag full of them, including Arkham Asylum, which I’ve never actually read. I think I was avoiding mainstream comics when it came out.
