Whee, weekend!

I had such a nice weekend XD

Last night, margaritarussa hosted karaoke for a fundraiser for cancer research. caitirin and I met _melisande_ there (and she brought me another Justin de Quincy novel! OMG I love them!) It was so much fun! We sang KT Tunstall's Suddenly I See and TMBG's Istanbul (Not Constantinople) and we watched lots of other people sing :) margaritarussa has a fantastic voice!

Also, yesterday Caitirin bought me a Moomintroll doujinshi on ebay! T____T *joy* It's in Japanese and it's so freaking cute. I can't wait to get it. It's all adorable with Snufkin and Little My and Moomintroll dancing around on the cover :3

And today, for Mother's Day, we took coastal_spirit on a Magical Mystery Tour to Salem, MA and we went to all sorts of fascinating shops, and had vegetable tempura for lunch, and ice cream later n_n Caitirin and I got an iron trinity knot with bells on it to hang on our porch, and I got two beautiful pieces of tumbled clear quartz that have almost no inclusions. I also got a very pretty nearly round piece of smoky quartz and a piece of onyx, which has blue rainbowy shimmery bits in it. I love stones!

I also picked up the first volume of the Neon Genesis Evangelion: Angelic Days manga. It's... sort of like if Eva were a normal story XD So far, at least. All of the characters go to school together (Kaworu included), Rei is all bubbly and inexperienced with the real world (oooh mystery!), Misato is their teacher, and Ritsuko is the school nurse. They all also work for NERV, of course ^^;; It's pretty cute. I also bought two volumes of a manga called The Last Uniform, which is apparently adorable school age girl-love. I haven't read any yet, but it looks really cute. Squee!

We had a really nice time n_______n

And now! It's time to collapse in bed!
