Well, I’m a couple of days late on this entry for it, but Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! While I had thought that I was going to be spending the day doing work, I instead spent it at Joe’s Mum’s place with Joe, his Mum, his sister Katy and her fiance, Luke. All in all it was good fun. I got to know the family a little more, got to hear some hilarious stories about Joe, watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail and The Three Musketeers (I hadn’t seen that in years, it’s eminently quotable) and have a bunch of good food. Excellent. ^^

Oh, and when Joe and I were at the supermarket picking up some stuff, this guy walked past and complimented me on my cute dimples. Went something like this:
Random guy: “I just wanted to say you have really cute dimples!” *continues walking*
Me (slightly bewildered): “Thanks…”
Joe: “You know he was gay, right?”
Me: “Yeah.”
Joe: “And apparently hitting on you while he’s out with his partner.”
Me: “Yeah…”

I took the night off to sit and play some games as well, which was a nice change of pace from madly just doing academic stuff.

Today is actually Breffni’s birthday back in New Zealand, so Happy Birthday to Breffni! I already talked to her over MSN, which was nice, but I thought I’d announce it on here for the few people who actually read this as well.

The rest of this weekend ought to be taken up with writing code for my research and perhaps brief interludes for food and fun so I don’t go totally insane. Speaking of which, I think I shall get back to it, then be having some food with Joe soon.

Joe is an awesome flatmate. I talk to him all the time, we go for food and generally just get along. When I think of what flatmates are supposed to be like, I think of Joe. I’m gonna miss living with him after the end of this quarter. Oh, we watched Equilibrium the other day. Awesome movie, I thoroughly recommend it.
