A fairly average 3rd weekend all told. I watched "Just My Luck" - a gifting from noseynick's clan - on Friday.

Saturday I didn't really end up doing much during the day and then there was Dark Ages in the evening where nemy and lawrencegillies put on a fine xmas (we're a month behind gametime) celebration. The highlight of which was the Blind Man's Bluff game, in which nemy made a lunge for lawrencegillies and ended up grabbing him by the family jewels.

On Sunday I managed to drag myself up the hill to stick my head in on fight practice. Didn't do much except watch and eat as I'd had far too little sleep from spodding online 'til stupid o'clock in the morning. Plus I think I might need a bit of a refresher as it seems like ages since I've picked up a sword.

izzy_stradlin came by to unpack/move stuff in some more with eggwhite in the evening. I had no idea she had so much stuff. It's little wonder she needs a place of her own to store it. I also watched Contact which has a very sad ending - at least for the main character. I think the bureaucrats need slapping upside the head. I wonder what the book is like.

I really love Contact. I've seen it way too many times :)

For some reason I thought Carl Sagan had written loads of stuff, but it's the one fictional piece of work he's done. I've not read the book, so I don't know if it's any good. It'd be a shame if it was as he'll not be writing anything else.

Surely it was

nemy and

filthylucre who hosted?

Oh yes. So it was. I clearly had the Blind Man's Bluff game firmly in the front of my mind ;)
