Mondays masquerading as Tuesdays, Pt. 2

Right, so I don’t know if I mentioned that someone in Mexico was trying to use my debit card, but I got a new one. It’s such a relief to not have to carry around cash or borrow money from someone. For instance, last night I went to a diner with friends. It was one of those last minute non-planned plans, so that was nice. We first went to the game store as planned, and we played Ticket to Ride, the Europe version. It really is rather quite a unique environment. They have games there I’ve never heard of in my life, and they let you try them out. Next time we’re playing a game involving monks and a mysterious abbey where one of them mysteriously falls to his death. How great does that sound?! I won this time, which I did when we played the United States version of the game. I also ordered it in, because it’s been sold out since Christmas.

I don’t remember what the name of the diner was. It was clever, had the word “plate” in there, and also cleverly put “Diner” on the end of the name, as all good diners should do. I think it was 1960’s themed, but it could have been 50’s like Pinkie insists her dream diner will be. Of course this inspired Duckling and I to go on about our own never-will-exist diner, which we only decided to elaborate upon when Pinkie so rudely vetoed our name suggestions and ideas for her diner. I must say, it’s rather amusing to get her riled up with the subject, because never in a million years would Duckling and I actually open a diner across from hers, yet every time we bring it up she gets all huffy. That’s probably why we still bring it up. Anyway, The Big Ol’ D will now have it’s own t-shirts and kazoo’s, which makes my mother’s pencil/book inscriber machine finally useful for the first time in about a decade. The logo may be changed at any time. Kyle came with us for the whole adventure, though he didn’t so much enjoy the game store. Afterwards I ended up driving him and Ashley around till we found the Second Kingdom Hearts PS-2 game that came out the day before. The diner guy tipped them off to it’s being out. I would be more excited if I had any spare time that could be devoted to video games.

This brings me to today. We are, as we so often are, experiencing instrumentation problems, and only in my daydream are all the problems fixed by kicking it really hard. Somehow we experienced an overflow of immunocaps on the conveyer belt. I’ve never seen such a sight. I also am becoming increasingly worried about my class. I really have to shine on my last exam and the final, and there are only three weeks of the class left. This worries me more than bringing relief.
