Weekend Update

The weekend was a weekend. It was not very pleasant out and I was very "off" because of basically not sleeping Thursday night. Plus I was all freaky worrying about whether or not my network was safe or I was going to walk into a nightmare today. My irritation about the mich/ferrick thing segwayed into our beloved fuhrer starting up the hate machine against gay people. It's always nice to be reminded by the leader of the "free" world that you're a danger to society to brighten up your day.
Janna was in a similar cheery mood and we were bouncing off of each other.
So really, we didn't get up to very much.
The one thing we did get to was we went to Aye Caramba Saturday night, which was good. We tried their guacamole, which was fantastic, especially with their fresh cooked chips. I had enchiladas, which were good, but insanely spicy even for me! Janna got a batch of tacos. I don't think I've babbled about AC, but they're a very wholesome Mexican place. The tacos are in a fresh corn tortilla, not a cracky fried one. And they have real meat, which is marinated and slow cooked. None of this is at all like what you would find in even a "good" tex-mex style restaurant.
Oh and we got three separate dump runs in. Yes, we actually made a dump run just for cleaning out the refrigerator. Scary eh?
And I obsessively played Puzzle Pirates. I've found a decent enough Crew. I keep thinking the grass might be greener elsewhere though. I kind of like the anonymity at the moment though.

I hope you realized that obviously you could help yourselves (I know neither of you are scotch drinkers, but I'm trying to remember what you thought of akvavit).

Also, Stevie mentioned that hispanic sometimes gets used for anyone that can function in spanish - and there's a specific word for white, non-latino/a spanish speakers.

And that wonderful boxed shiraz I found. Though as reviews keep coming in, the price has edged up a few dollars.
