Pictures: Downtown adventure with Prashanta, Jen, and Mika.
This time going downtown, I didn't get thieved. No Eeyores were stolen, no backpacks taken, no car change missing. We had planned to go skating on the canal, which I enjoy for a short period of time, before it becomes a painful experience. But for that initial 10-15 minutes, it's a lot of fun! The weather was very warm, though, and the canal's last day simply wasn't.
Also, playing Mairokart offline is so much easier than playing it online. Never once have I bounced around in front of the finish line thanks to bullet bills, red shells, invincible stars, losing 8 positions in the process. That was almost as bad as that one time someone hit me with a red shell going over a jump in the final lap of Waluigi's Stadium, effectively knocking me out of the running for an arcade machine. I coulda taken them!!! I could have an arcade machine in my room right now! And probably nothing else.
Though those 150cc computer opponents, if memory serves, are a nightmare.
Wine ranking so far:
- Pinot Grigio
- Sauvignon Blanc
- Riesling
- Merlot
I know that Sola Nero wine I had over a year ago ranks high on that list. The sauvignon blanc I had the other day (which has a story, which may or may not be all that exciting. I'll tell it next time) was palatable, albeit strong. It didn't have that sour apple afterkick that the riesling did. Ick. My next wine will be a zinfandel-vidal. One, it's pink. Or should I say rose? Two, it's a blend of two different grapes, so maybe the taste will bounce. Or maybe I won't even notice. We'll see later this week.
