This weekend I:

went to choir practice
found a yarn store new to me just north of where the choir practice was (Bathurst south of St. Clair)
admired the store's budgie
bought some perfectly gorgeous rose cotton-silk blend yarn with which I will be making a sweater if I can get my tension sorted out and decipher the pattern (in the round, with short rows interspersed with increases for one's boobs; at least I don't need to worry about that part for a good, oh, foot or so)
since I had already started spending money, went to Joe's next to the big Loblaw's up there and bought a skirt and a dress and three tops and a set of pyjamas for $86.50 including tax
discovered that the new lampshades I bought at Ikea do in fact work perfectly well on my bedside lamps now that I've cut down the cardboard bit on the socket so that the bulb can make contact
banished the old floor lamp with the metal half-cylinder shade and the very harsh light to the yard sale pile in the basement
discovered what an incredible improvement that made to my bedroom, and wondered why I hadn't done it sooner
wondered where the other bedside lamp is
walked Bender (twice)
saw Fracture
stayed up way, way, way too late reading The Morning Gift by Eva Ibbotson because I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN
wore my new skirt
went to two family parties
played badminton with my small cousins
was urged to visit some other cousins while they're still in Malawi, which kind of makes sense
ate way, way, way too much
wondered where the weekend went
