Thursday: my plan had been to order lunch at Newbold Cafe before running my errands, but the cafe was unexpectedly closed. I walked to the halal cart, instead. (Had to stick to the shadows because of the heat and humidity.) This time, I declined to have the shawarma, but the chicken over rice was quite good. Once we were finished eating, I drove to the store to get my groceries. Julie was going to dinner with bocce people in the evening, so I finished the chili while watching Lauren almost finish Undertale Yellow. Once she stopped streaming, I started Animal Well, which kept me up way too late.
Tuesday: I thought I'd gone to bed a little earlier, but I still had barely any time before work. I had another group of trainees, and they were really amused whenever John would roll on my keyboard and add a bunch of unnecessary punctuation every time I tried to make my notes. Meanwhile, a bunch of the cats like Goose and Koop made a point to stay in the office since Cliff is around. For dinner, Julie put together a kale and chickpea soup of coconut milk and a bit of curry, but something about the balance seemed off. She thought there was probably too much kale compared to the level of broth. I picked up some of the Sanderson videos I'd started but hadn't finished earlier in the year, and then I dedicated a bunch of time to figuring out some Inform 7 extensions I'd been interested in.

I posted another update to my livejournal today in which I described some of the activities of the sumer so far. My sister Kelly is one of the two captains of the high school dance squad, and they set up a gigantic garage sale at family's house in Derby. We took the opportunity to sell some of my grandparents' things that none of their survivors were interested in claiming, while I agreed to part with some of my own clutter, thanks to which I had the money to purchase a Terry Pratchett book and Stephen King's On Writing.
Last weekend also marked Kelly's first dance recital with her new studio. It was a small scandal that she'd left KDA in the first place; the new studio's performances felt less polished, but less predictable. I enjoyed it, though.
In terms of my own pursuits, I've been playing a bit of the PS2 port of Deus Ex, and today, I joined Carl on a whirlwind tour of pawn shops and videogame stores in Wichita. (I think he was looking for a copy of the GBA Tactics Ogre that he was desperate to get his hands on. I'd had a copy, but unfortunately I sold mine at GameStop before I knew he wanted it.) While we didn't find what he was looking for, we had a good time.
