Day of acquisition

Wednesday started off at the gym. Trying to get in a MWF habit. Seems to be working thus far. Though I do need to get up earlier.

Ro and I did the final steps of turning his bedroom into an office. Tuesday was Ikea: smaller futon, chairs, table/desk, assemble and arrange. Wednesday, we picked up whiteboard and powerstrip. It worked out fairly well. The whiteboard is smaller than I’m used to, but there’s no bothersome searching for an open space to work, and no distractions from other people nearby or my conscience over using space intended for students.

It’ll take a little getting used to, this is not an ideal situation, but, then again, this is most assuredly not an indefinite employment situation, either.

Anyway. We took out the mini-futon his roommate had replaced with a loveseat, lint-brushed enough doghair off to make a small sweater, and tried to beat the dust out of the mattress and eventually gave up. I biked home, Ro caught up with futon, unloaded it, then we did laundry.

Back home, drop off laundry, go to endgame. Played Lost Cities w/, purchased carcassone: hunters & gatherers, then played it with Ro, Josh, and this guy named Matt. Then had a painfully protracted game of fist of dragonstones. I think I should have won it, because I got an extra renew-able bidding token in the first turn, and nobody else did until much later in the game (and he didn’t win either). Stupid bidding game. =) Stupid capitalism, too.

Oh yeah, & will be coming in to town tomorrow or saturday. He has an interview with UCB. Excellent. All is proceeding according to plan. =)

Off to lunch plans.
