josh's visit

josh coop came to bless us with his presence yesterday. we had so much fun.

i got to eat lunch with him, and then make mac-n-cheese for him for dinner, later, after he and stacey had played music for a long time in cspac. (while they were doing that, i was learning how to sign "lean on me" in american sign language. ha. here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ez6a_pGdwlY )

i was sad that i had a ticket for the basketball game, because i wanted to stay and hang out. but i went to the basketball game, anyway.
i was almost to the comcast center with robby and brett, when i remembered (much to my secret relief) that i had forgotten to print out my ticket. ("oh... darn! i forgot my ticket!.... guess i'll have to go home!" (in my head: "yes!")).

so i went home to find itallian opera playing off josh's computer,

a fire blazing,

and three of my favorite people in the world playing an intensive round of speed uno.

(kate smugly winning:)

and so i contented myself with roasting marshmallows on a hanger and feeding them to the very intense players. it was so fun.

and then we all watched the new indiana jones.
and afterwards i fell asleep on the couch until 1:30. and then i got up and went to bed.

last night was one of the most enjoyable, quite and cozy nights in my recent history.
thanks for coming down, joshua.
thanks for being the best of roommates, stace and kate.

sigh.
