Fare thee well, Foie/ Les Miz/ Brave

Had that Farewell to Foie dinner.

Kinda overpriced, kinda over-salted, kinda over-foie'd.
Meh. Ain't gonna be eating it again. Not in the People's Replubik of Kalifornia anyway.

Got the stitches out of my finger. Hurt more coming out than it did going in. Typing still a pain in the finger.

Saw Les Miserables at the Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa. Incredible. Will see again sometime. More excited about the upcoming movie now.

Broke into the burnt down house I bought a few weeks ago. Aggressive as hell beehive in the back. Got stung. Looted shit, and by shit, I mean "nothing." Not worth it.
Father picked up weird alien toy thing. He seems very pleased with it. For a man worth many millions, he likes the cheapest things. Mom brought home a 4-cd collection of 80's rock music. Has promptly decided she doesn't like rock music.

Saw Brave last night, and liked it. Will be getting the soundtrack. Not too excited about any other movies coming out this summer.

Mom's youngest brother is staying over for the next week to take care of business in the States. Means the GF can't stay over. Again. I are amused at how much more annoyed she is at this than I am.

The Finger

Damn near cut my finger off this week. Suffice to say, ran around looking for a clinic that would take me. Got it on the 4th try. 6 stitches. Many things and plans now delayed until this nonsense is healed. Super inconvenient, especially typing up this nonsense.

Signed up for the Farewell to Foie dinner at The Playground. We'll see how that goes tomorrow.

Had a pool party at neighbor's house. A good proportion of attendees wore female swimming attire. How far our little sausage fest has come...

Finally got my car washed and waxed, even if finger excused me from doing it myself.

Zelda + Big Bang + Transit I Missed

Voted again! For the life of me couldn't remember who I wanted for District Attorney, picked one at random, otherwise, went for the Republican ticket.

Being a single issue voter makes life easy.

(That Single Issue is 2nd Amendment Rights, FYI.)

Ordered some Sodium Polyacylate and Sodium Alginate for an experiment of mine. Other ingredients to be found in a local health food store, I hope.

Zelda Concert was awesome and nostalgic. Soundstage needed a lot of work, but otherwise, the concert was brilliant. Felt like picking up my ocarinas and playing along.

Bought seats for a Farewell to Foie Gras Feast, seeing as said delicacy is being banned in California come July. First shark fin, next foie gras, what next? Beef?

Summer running/backpacking season is upon us. Barefoot? or not?

Uncle coming to stay for a week starting Tuesday. Not really my issue, but fixed up the wall in the bedroom for him. Yay!

Finished the latest season of Big Bang Theory. Fun stuff, but feels like it's gonna come to an end soon. Which will be sad. Of particular amusement, to me, was the Good Guy Fluctuation. It's hard to be a good guy.

Just sayin.

Missed the Transit of Venus, didn't have the right equipment anyway.

Bleh.

Burnt

Work eerily reflects the season. Just bought a burnt property. Not happy.

Went to a gun show. Now want Springfield EMP and M1A Scout.

Note: do not buy girlfriend one-size-fit-all clothes from Asia. They will not fit the corn-fed women we have here.

Going to Zelda concert this Wednesday at the Greek. Wondering what to bring.
