Yet another subject line from Hazbin Hotel. This is the grand villain's origin story in song form. It's Saturday, and I got to sleep in for a change! Til nearly 7am! Now I'm sitting here feeling a little naughty and daring for getting up so late. The downside is that someone will surely be stirring soon, so my peace will be short lived. It's good if it's Jess, they're soothing. My sister is not.
Oh, Jess is up! I summoned them with my thoughts. I'm a goddamned Jedi.
My mouth is still a little swollen, but has gone down quite a bit. There's barely any swelling in my lip, and just a bit of a swollen area in my gum. I think in another day or so, it'll be gone.
Went to my company holiday outing last night. It was fun, but so goddamn loud. We went to Miss Toya's Creole House which was pretty good? Not like OMG awesome, but not bad. I started out with fried deviled eggs with crabmeat which were very tasty. I ate three, and probably could have called that my meal. But no, I had two crabcakes with cheesy grits and spinach coming. Most of that is currently residing in my refrigerator. The grits were excellent, the spinach was good, the crabcakes were a little overspiced. I love me some Old Bay, but damn. But overall, it was just a smallish room and nearly 30 people, and no sound deadening material. My boss, A, and I were both going "I am way too old for this." Still, it was nice to see people. I, being fat and a lefty claimed my seat immediately, and just as fas the two top bosses claimed seats on either side of me. I talked to them off an on all night, which was nice, since I get along well with both of them. But definitely had a "My milkshake brings all the managers to the yard" vibe.
Today, I will finish prepping for our 12pm game and then we shall see. Our local farm store has a jam tasting today at 11, so I'm wondering if I could sneak over there, buy some jam and then come back. I may try it.
Then, at 4, the dogsitter comes over to meet Yoda. Fingers crossed for a smooth introduction. If all goes well, I'm going to have her start coming a couple of times a week to walk him, so he'll continue to consider her a friend.
On Thursday, I discovered an exciting thing. Sometimes, Costco has Dungeness crabs! I got two big packs and we're going to have a crab feast this evening. I'm looking forward to it! They might not be as good as the stuff we had overnighted from Alaska, but I'm sure they'll be tasty. I can't wait.
Tomorrow, we're supposed to have a game, dependent on how the DM and players are feeling. That's not til 12, so I have plans to sleep in again and take it easy. The game will finish around 3, so maybe I'll actually cook something. I'll have to look and see what we have (so many things).
The tricky part is that I'm still sore, so it can't be something I have to bite. I'm thinking about the baby back ribs, since they should cook down to fall off the bone if I do it right. Otherwise, I'll just be cutting microscopic pieces to make it easy for myself. Or maybe by tomorrow, it'll be even better and I can make steak. We'll see.
But for today, it is prep time and then we shall have game! I have many traumatizing things planned for them. Fingers crossed that everyone is up to playing. Everyone have an amazing Saturday!
