It's been a [insert time period here] of bad news, I can tell you. Lots of ups and downs, including a total meltdown on Friday. I've been focusing a lot on the downs (as is the wont of a depressive mind, bah), so I'm going to try and focus on the ups today.
1) Roomie has a job starting on Wednesday, and it's the one he wanted. Yay!
2) Saturday; I had brunch in the sunshine at one place, and then a pint of cafe latte at another place, whilst reading Moneyball, a book on the shift in baseball management philosophy back in the early 2000's. Sun good. Coffee even better.
3) Upon returning home (and cleaning out the kitty litter and taking out the trash), I watched The Muppet Movie and The Muppets Take Manhattan, in honour of it being Jim Henson's birthday on Saturday. Something about Muppets makes it really difficult to mope.
4) Saturday evening was spent at the pub with Mindy, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], who had been in London with his stepdad that day. We made tentative plans for various things, and Mindy announced her birthday will have a Pirate theme. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], bring something pirate-y when you visit. ;)
5) Sunday we went out for lunch in the Annex and found a really yummy Japanese place.
6) And then we went and saw Moneyball the movie. Brad Pitt was very, very good and for a movie about baseball, there wasn't a huge amount of the actual game, which was an interesting way to do it. And it was Aaron Sorkin writing, which meant fantastic dialogue.
7) I'm going to go to my sushi place for lunch today. Yes, I had sushi yesterday, but damnit, I want some today too!
