Saturday: my grand plans to start a M-W-F schedule of updates are already backfiring, as the weekend was memorable, yet it wasn't exactly sequential. This may not be the right order, but here are some of the things I recall happening during the weekend: we took the kittens to the vet Saturday morning. I'd forgotten that this was the plan, so I was not very well rested, and after dropping off Julie and the cats, I parked on the next street over and watched a couple construction workers who were knocking bricks out of a 2nd floor wall with hammer. After we returned, I think we had our leftovers for lunch: Julie finished the goulash, while I finished the fish paste spaghetti. We went shopping—I remember we drove straight to the store, for once. I picked up lunch stuff and the components to make our beloved scalloped potatoes. The drive back on Snyder mocked the hubris of my decision to follow a bus as we proceeded to stop at every intersection whether the light was red or not. Who could have predicted this. After our return, we resumed our earlier game of Civ in which I was on-track to get my religious victory and pretty much played until I won. Later, we walked to Cantina Los Caballitos for dinner; the weather felt perfect. Probably not a coincidence that their open-air seating was packed, but plenty of space remained inside. The beef quesabirria satisfied just as much this time as it has before. We detoured by the soft serve ice creamery on our return trip: Julie had a swirl in a cone, while I had a swirl in a bowl. Since the weather was still so nice after we finished our ice cream at home, we plugged my power strip into the outlet by the door and sat on the porch to start a new game of Civ. I enjoyed the huge Earth with true starting locations map enough the first time that I put that in again, this time planning for a cultural victory while Julie aimed for science. While my Greece was able to take out Alexander of Macedon on the first turn, neither of us were having a very successful time at our chosen strategies, and once Cleopatra declared war on us, we called it quits.

Looks like I had a better grasp on Saturday's timeline than I thought. I thought I did wind up playing Zelda on Friday night, but it doesn't look like I got very far. All I did was continue the goron questline, cresting the summit of Mt. Doom, and quitting basically as soon as I approached the entrance to the fire temple.
