moonwise | weekend update

It's always nice to spend 'em mostly at home.

It ended with a bit of excitement, though. I was bouncing around the kitchen last night and whacked the back of my hand into a chair. Husband was afraid it had been fractured (he's had that happen before, most notably from hitting his brother in the head when they were kids. Although his mother was not amused, the hospital staff was) but it turned out to be OK. They gave me a brace to put on it, which makes typing difficult, and if I want to work in the lab I have to put a glove on under the brace.

Friday we went to a coworker's house to his Movie Night. He was drunk off his ass when we got there, which amused the hell out of me. We had fun with croquet and the movie, but we had to leave early because husband got cold. He is not too good at planning ahead for contingencies. I'd brought a blanket, but it didn't seem to help.

Saturday we were supposed to help my folks bring the boat around to Red Bank, but there's a leak in the forward cabin that Silverton has to fix. Instead, we visited them for the Preakness and had dinner with them, my uncle, and my aunt. My uncle looks ill, he's losing weight b/c he's having trouble keeping his food intake up after the surgery.

Sunday, my husband and I met up with

fadingembers and

jaina at the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers to see their Japonisme exhibit. The exhibit was very small, so we spent more time looking at the Soviet propaganda posters and puzzling over the modern art. Afterwards we went to lunch and it took forever. When we got home, I went online and had the rare pleasure of catching

fireceremony for cosplay chatter and potential con plans (well, if I move to Boston, which is becoming more and more of a possibility.)

And that's about it!
