Looks like Mark and I will be doing the 'different movies, same restaurant' thing tonight. He's going to see Night at the Museum, and I'm going to see The Pursuit of Happyness. Afterward, we're going to check out a restaurant that serves Southern-style (not Texas-style) barbecue. Texas barbecue is made with beef, and Southern barbecue is made with pork and has a vinegary sauce.

I'm betting I will find it very weird, but hey, if it was good enough for George Washington, it's good enough for me!

Jocasta Weyr: sauron_the_dark and I spent yesterday evening developing the Weyrleader and Weyrwoman of Aran, an NPC Weyr in Jocasta's timeline. I will simply say that this is not your Lessa and F'lar type of relationship. More like mutual rolling of eyes, even contempt, except when it comes to performance of duty. Should be fun!

Though I still can't believe Vahsal said, "Well, la-dee-da!" to him. I used a bit of Temperance Brennan's personality from Bones for Vashal, and that phrase is so un-Brennan.

I have grudgingly come to admit that the name 'Bones' can now be applied to someone in addition to Dr. Leonard McCoy. But only grudgingly. (g)

This year's order of Holiday Spice chocolate truffles from The Chocolate Garden came in yesterday. Mark and I had one each, and they were delicious, as usual. I think they taste best when served at room temperature, rather than straight from the refrigerator.

Edit: I want a nap. Zzzzz...
