Off to see the Titanic Exhibit - or Not

So... Marriage. Yeah. Didn't really work out. I wish Lyra well with whatever his name is, her new beau.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Voltaire and I are back in Colorado, and we're back to staying with Wendy. They say you can never go home, but I did.

Wendy's got new roommates, and one of them, Sam, likes board games. She likes them almost as much as I do. And she plays a wicked match of Connect Four, let me tell you. But more about that later.

Anyway, now that I'm settled in a little bit, Wendy and I went out. It was a little chilly today, but no rain. It was nice to be back somewhere cold (Vegas = not especially cold).



Wendy's beloved, Kirkachu, had scored VIP ticket thingies to this Titanic traveling exhibit and that sounded like a lot of fun. Great way to get back into the swing of riding in the purse and all that.


But first, we ended up in a Denny's because they were both hungry after planting trees all morning for Arbor Day. (I did not attend the grand tree planting, but they said they had fun.)


I ordered the nachos and a hot chocolate. It's a weird habit I picked up from Lyra. I dunno, it's just tasty.

I eat carrots during the week to balance it out. Really.


While lunch was lovely, and it was great to hang out with Wendy and Kirkachu, they stuck me with the bill. Oh yeah, I'm home all right.


And then we ended up at Black & Read, which is a store I really, really like.

But it is NOT a Titanic exhibit. They didn't have the CD I wanted (Lyra seems to have gotten custody of all our CDs, so I have some collection reconstruction to do.)

Shortly after that, they both completely wimped out, said something about just being too tired and came home.

So while they're napping, I'm doing this blog update on Wendy's computer (they're napping in the room where my laptop is. So maybe, while I'm on her machine, I'll move around her icons or something. Or change her wallpaper to this.)

I'm going to try to talk them into going tomorrow, and we'll see how that works out. At the worst, I'll end up getting my tail handed to me by Sam again at Connect Four. (I wonder how she is at Battleship? Maybe I'll try that next. I RULE at Battleship.)

So I'm back to blogging. I missed it. And hopefully, someone out there is still reading it. Even if not, it's nice to be back.

I'm glad to be home.
