After a yummy dinner, we went to my house and watched Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical, which was very funny, and a little bit of the original 1930s exploitation/propaganda movie, which was a bonus on the DVD.
That night I had a political dream, which I might get around to posting about later.
In the morning we got a lazy start, and ended up getting to the nearby hole-in-the-wall diner too late, so we went to IHOP for brunch before going shopping.

When we got to her place, she made a yummy Comfort Cafeteria meal of tater tots and sloppy joes while I set up a wireless router for her (so now she can bring home her work laptop, and I can surf the net on my laptop while she surfs the net on her desktop).

I’m not sure if this is a return of my sciatica or if I did something to my hip slipping on the ice. But if a hurt hip is the price for all the joy and fun I had this weekend, it was worth it.
