magidThere were lots more people at the Diesel this week than the last couple of weeks. I shouldn't've been so suprised; it's the first non-holiday week in a while.
New things I heard of yesterday: potato snow, cell phones that are also digital cameras.
Sushi at Yoshi's was yummy, and with someone to talk with as well, something I'd not assumed I'd have.
I had a really nice time at the gaming, though I didn't end up playing any games myself. I watched Carcasonne, Pipes, and Aquarius, and there was interesting conversation. Some talk of math fiction, and there were titles (and authors) mentioned that sounded worth reading. Of course, I didn't remember any of them after. Reminders, anyone? I also got to hear about the Apple address, and some games' strategies, and a discussion of chocolate preferences. I now have plans for Peruvian chicken in March, too. I was really glad I went, despite being tired.
The walk home was cold: my face felt just a bit frozen by the time I arrived (and had gotten the trash out to the curb). My legs were also cold, but in a way that I always think of as a proper winter feel, so it's a good feel for me.

Date: 2003-01-09 06:51 am (UTC)I thought of another book that is tangetially in the mathematical fiction category, The Thread, subtitled "A Mathematical Tale," I think. It's more about threads of stories that can start anywhere and end up anywhere else, but does have a mathematician as one point of reference, and has the lovely word "pafnutyizing" in it, which I like (It makes sense in context.).
