Excellent rest of the weekend

So yesterday afternoon was about cleaning and organizing and even doing a smidge more unpacking. In the evening I got to see the lovely [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom, so it was a delightful birthday. :-)

This morning I had breakfast at IHOP with [livejournal.com profile] cathijosephine and [livejournal.com profile] faerieschylde, who was visiting [livejournal.com profile] cathijosephine. Was great to see them, although I think between the three of us we’d had enough sleep for one and a half people. :-)

This afternoon I had people over for games. This was only the second time since I moved here that I had made the house semi-presentable for company (and I think it was more presentable than the first time, actually). This was also the first time I actually got around to having Artoo vacuum since I got him many months ago.

It was a great time. [livejournal.com profile] treacle_well won the first game of Cities and Knights, and [livejournal.com profile] pheromone won the second game, although since she had to leave just before the game ended, [livejournal.com profile] dabunny got to deliver the coup de grace on her behalf. Then [livejournal.com profile] zzbottom introduced us to a very nifty game called Ticket to Ride: Europe, which is a territory-control game that reminds me a bit of Through the Desert, although much less sedate.
