I installed the new module in my case, as well as the ones Nathan lent me. Even have it arranged to accommodate when my other module comes back from the Czech Republic. Had a fun little jam with that new stuff and Pamela's driving everything rhythmically. Think I'm gonna be super happy with this bounty of adsrs! What else? A nice dinner with Mary Beth in a different room. We went over and took care of Jo Jo and I played Fez and even "beat" the game! Okay, I got to the basic "ending" or the "kill screen." Still a bunch of stuff left undone. But at least you can go back and keep going. I have a feeling a lot of these puzzles sprinkled about are gonna be real hard. Not a whole lot else. Except I did kinda ruin an otherwise perfectly wonderful late night new year's eve. We had a nice morning sitting outside a little bit (still cold but not as bad as it is without the sun) looking at birds and seeing just the teensiest bit of snow flake down. Where you could almost miss it and as soon as it's done it'll probably leave no trace. But we contemplated the map it made on the outdoors card table. Not much else. A little memory from the show the other night that I forgot to mention. The third act, while announcing a song, called it "experimental jazz" and it was not remotely like any of those things, either apart or together. So that was just mildly funny, that's all. Well, here's to hoping for a great year this time!
