Weekend things

[lizardbeth]

Yesterday, we saw the very cool sight of an accident where a car had just sheared off a fire hydrant and the water was shooting twenty feet in the air. Ironic, because of the water restrictions, but still neat to see.

We went to a taiko drums performance today. Loud, but awesome. I was impressed Rugrat got through as long as he did, since he's still really sensitive to loud noises.

Let's see: saw this week's Burn Notice and last season's finale to Leverage again to get ready for the premiere later.

As I am a terrible caffeine addict, I tried the new McDonald's mocha. Ye Little Gods,is that THE MOST AWFUL and disgusting thing EVER. I'm not a coffee snob, by any means, but that was very nearly undrinkable. How did they get hot chocolate with coffee SO WRONG? *gag*

And in other home news, I'm doing more re-writes/adding to Tartarus and... *sigh* Two weeks! TWO WEEKS! I AM NOT READY!

I think, to be horribly coffee snob about it, that they start off with horrid coffee to begin with. I mean it's "restaurant" coffee, so you got to give some slack, but IHOP and Perkins both have pretty decent coffee for a restaurant. McD's...well you start with hideously inferior beans and probably really cheap cocoa, you get a horrific drink. :(

Even if they are owned by Phillip Morris, I so <3 Starbucks!
