Jughead and skiwear! / Dentist appointments / Staying home

High-scoring words of the afternoon:

SKIWEAR (304 points) - against Michael H. [4W used twice, 3W, hook off QUIP for a plural]
JUGHEAD (104 points) - against George M. [5W] {a good deficit-erasing word!}


Went to the dentist, where I learned about flossing and calcium deposits in saliva. Scraping teeth is oddly peaceful, except for the blood in the mouth! Then I went to Oakridge (it had started raining) in order to scout out Minute Rice at Safeway. They did have it, but not in the big boxes I'm used to. After that, I went to Zellers - they did have the big Minute Rice boxes, on sale. Took the wrong Canada Line train on the way home, which made me even more delayed. When I got home, I figured Eric had called me - he had, but not for the usual reason. He was calling from home, for one thing. Says he feels sick and will be staying home. Sounds okay to me (no certain things going on, haha), as I get more downtime! This actually dovetails quite nicely with my wish to stay home and have a break from Fellowship for once! Tested pot pies in the new microwave, and it worked in the expected way!
