That was crazy fun - playing Call of Cthulhu as a bunch of old folks in a nursing home?  Priceless.  And I was the only one alive by the end of the game - of course, I was also evil and killing people with a comb, so, y'know.  Trade-off.

Best line of the night?

We were all discussing our crazy conspiracy theories, and someone came up with the idea that the administrator of the home was sucking the life out of people.

"There's just one question left to answer," someone said with a dramatic pause.  "Did he bring his little straw?"

We were all laughing for several minutes straight.  Such Who!geeks. :D

Also: unexpected real-life romantic story, as two of the players described their engagement during a food break.  Proposing on a sailboat under the Golden Gate bridge at sunset?  Pretty dang priceless.

Further proof that I need to go to San Francisco, looks like!

Had a spectacular geek-out tonight with my violin instructor - I wanted to duck out of watching the American Idol finale with warring roommates, he wanted to avoid making an appearance at karaoke night.  Thus, we made our respective excuses and went to his place to watch Torchwood and play the Wii (which I'd never done before, making it that much more amusing until I started beating him at tennis).

He owns an ice cream machine and knows how to make candy.

Good times were had by all!

It's nice to know I've got somewhere to hang out when I'm fed up with roommates and/or feeling geeky.  Also: having a new geek!buddy is all kinds of awesome. (Plus: next week, we begin the accompanist work.  Dynamic duo?  Quite possibly!)

Roommates have decreed that food is to be purchased separately, henceforth.  'sall good, I felt horribly awkward coming home after work and eating their leftovers.  Only problem - they've got access to a car and I don't.  *wince*  Light food, then.  Easy to carry the ten blocks from Safeway.  Right.

Except this decree comes into effect on Monday.  And I'm out of town from tomorrow 'til then.  *wince*  I guess I'll leave work early and go shopping.

Wish everything didn't have to go through back channels, is all.  Attempting honest and open communication in a house of girls is immensely painful.

On the plus side, I'll get to eat what I want.  I think that's a plus.  Maybe.  Another step toward total independence, in any case.

Violin instructor's looking for a roommate.  The part of me that doesn't love my current roommates to death was sorely tempted to take him up on his offer.  His girlfriend and my sometime-boyfriend probably wouldn't approve, though.  Heehee.
