Sending off and Slacking off

Blargh! It's been 3 days since my last post. I'm worse than +Joshua Cole at this point, haha. It's been a busy couple of days. My dad, Andrew's parent's, and our old house mate Tim Daugh all left on Wednesday/Thursday. The house has been so quiet since then! I can finally collect my thoughts and hang out in my room again. Don't get me wrong, it was nice having them here, but I was going through solitude withdrawal. I get pretty grumpy and disagreeable if I don't get some alone time.

I managed to find my way into our housing complex's common's room late one night. Couches and lounge chairs are placed everywhere, a full kitchen off to the side and a television on the focus wall... AND ARCADE MACHINES! Oh man, I have to go back and blow some quarters on those things. One of them is like 50 games crammed into one machine you choose from, and I think the other was mrs. pacman. That was there I drew my hand studies posted earlier.

We ate out every other night while company was in town. I'm a larger fan of stay-at-home cooking. Partially because it tastes just as good, partially because my wallet was getting pretty slim. They payed for a lot of our meals, and I didn't argue with their offer. The final night they were here we took them to The Cheesecake Factory. I thought the main course was cheesecake, but it turns out they're actually a full fine-dining restaurant. It's an okay place I guess. I find I can get food just as delicious elsewhere without my wallet hurting at the end of the week.

I also thought their ceiling decorations were silly looking. I don't care for airbrushed pastels.

This also made me chuckle. I'm assuming this is when they're open... Or closed? WHICH IS IT?! does it open at 11am and close at 11am? These doors are unclear.
