Went out for ice cream last night with Zedka and la_menthe~ We also popped into Chapters where I decided to use up my gift cards, since they had a "buy 3 books, get a fourth free" special on. I grabbed the first volume of the D. Gray-Man manga, as well as two more Discworld novels, and I also got the Subtle Knife...though $18 for a paperback is such a ripoff. XP

I wish it was cool enough that I could try out a recipe I found for lemon cupcakes, but in the meantime, I've got a recipe for a key lime pie. I would just have to buy a graham cracker crust since I can't bake my own right now.

I ate an apple bigger than my fist today. It was really filling. XD

On Monday, I played some racketball (racquetball?) with Zedka and la_menthe--and it was an awesome time, except that I'm somewhat of a stranger to physical activity and so the next day I was staggering around like C3P0 about to keel over (or maybe KOS-MOS or an AGWS would be more appropriate, since I'm replaying Xenosaga? XD). I was pretty much in great pain from my thighs to the middle of my back and in my entire right arm, with the occasional aching in my calf muscles and ankles.

This morning was the first day it was all gone (unless I flex certain muscles, and then they just feel a bit strained), but now I've gone and almost killed my hip. XP Since of course whenever I make something, I always seem to require at least one ingredient from the highest shelves, and so I'm up and down the stool to get it down and put it away again, and I guess that didn't agree with my joint. I had been planning on walking to Shoppers to get a phone card and some whipping cream, but that might not be a good thing right now. Stuff like this makes me feel old!

On a side note, I've posted a recipe for shortbread.

Also: 2 WEEKS! Well, less than that! XD

Apparently I can't sew, and neither can my mom, which was...news to me, actually, because I was sure she could. ^^; But it would appear that we don't have a working sewing machine anyway, which renders that kind of moot. So I guess that just means I'll be going as...myself? An anime fan? XD

And now I must decide whether I want to read the Slayers REVOLUTION manga summaries, or try and ignore them until I can see the series...I probably won't be able to resist. XD; But I think the series didn't really impact me as much as it could have when I finally got to see it, seeing as I dug up every detail of every episode that I could get my hands on way ahead of time. Well, I'll give ignoring it a try! XD
