Woke up. Went to class: Web. Listened to McGuirk lecture, and had separate thoughts, which I took down in my blue fuzzy journal.
Picked up the Little Fayoumis from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
yaksha42, and took him with me to the computer lab, where we commenced the Forms test.
I am, quite clearly, a slacker. I hadn't looked at the Forms stuff until that day. Managed to ace the test in less time than it took most to finish it. The major sticking-point was the mouse, which refused to select properly. McGuirk and I both cussed at it a bit, I more vocally than she.
I'm good like that.
After that, we went out in the courtyard, where this guy was doing wax hands. I duly dipped my hand in ice water for fifteen seconds, and eight times in the wax. Then the guy shimmied the wax off my Vulcan-hand, and chilled it into position, and waxed it blue. I went around again and got my hand done in the Spiderman web-slinging position, for the Little Fayoumis. He wore that home happily. Meanwhile, my Vulcan hand had gotten more than somewhat melty.
It was a fun thing, though.
votania worked today, and marxdarx had class. Little Fayoumis and I chilled around the house. I called Darkside, and wound up talking for two hours.
Aftermarxdarx and votania came home, they had discussion of whether or not to go out and see The Matrix: Reloaded or not. It turned out to be not, as they were both too tired and too stressed. Suggested the alternative of hot tub, which they jumped on. marxdarx had downloaded Donnie Darko for me, which would have been a good movie choice for at home.
While they were in the hot tub, I decided it was Burger Night, and snagged the roll of hamburger out of the bottom of the refrigerator. Mmmm. Shooed the cats into the west bedroom, opened the back door, front door, and my window, turned off the chiller, and lit far too many sticks of lotus incense. Proceeded to make burgers (3 lbs 80/20 hamburger, 1 packet onion dip/soup mix, some parsley, an egg, and a little garlic salt, and a dash of pepper) and fry up the bacon (this being the reason for the heavy airing of the house).
It's wonderful to have the wind blowing through the house. While the censer is not very useful for the intended function, it still makes a great place to shove burning sticks of incense, thus making function adhere to form after all. We got rather too much of a lemon batch of lotus boquet incense, and so I like to leave a bazillion sticks of that in there. This time, all the sticks were good, and burned up quickly in the high wind zipping through the house.
The soggy wonder children returned, following their noses. Evidently it's that time of the year whenvotania does have a certain small amount of pork, for the bacon smelled good to her. While they were showering, I slipped out to restock on certain key hamburger elements such as tomatoes and Jewish Rye.
