Merry Festivus!

Hung out with some coworkers after work yesterday. Sitting around at a bar, sometimes making jokes. After that Mary Beth and I went up to the Rec Room where we met Jacques for some Seinfeld trivia! (On none other than Festivus Eve.) I was gonna bone up on trivia type stuff but I didn't get the chance. We mostly did pretty badly. We totally stomped one round though: the quotes round. That was our perfect score, plus triple bonus (and that's where 15 out of our 29 points came from). We weren't in last place, so that's something. We weren't TOO far behind most of the teams. I mean, we only got one question on two different rounds. Anyway, fun to do. Afterwards they had The Strike (the Festivus episode) playing on the projector (no sound but with subtitles and I was still cracking my ass up). Oh yeah, and weirdly for a while they had Samsara playing on the screen. And afterwards there was some good music on the overhead, two Television songs, The Stooges, The Cure, Buzzcocks, The Modern Lovers. Nothing esoteric, but still. I also finally got a chance to play The Simpsons arcade game up there. Kinda lame though 'cuz it actually takes quarters (50 cents no less!) when their other arcade machines had been free. Still played on one payment. Though it was by myself and that game really needs multiple players. Work's been getting more and more like a ghost town. Today was especially ghosty. Most of the day it was just me and Mafaz in the room we're in. Oh, and at a point I went next door to use the toilet. Next door (the building I used to work in) has the fancy bathrooms (though that's not why I walked over, it was just 'cuz someone was in the close bathroom). Anyway, it's got motion sensor lights and with today not having much traffic, the fucking lights went out on me while I was on the toilet. And it was very very dark. Eventually someone came back in before I had to resort to other measures. Anyway, yeah, that happened.
