Updates

I've just bought a sofa. Yes, another one. For a long time now I've wanted a second sofa that we could put in the spare bedroom, to make it into a kind of a second living room. And make it a nice sofa bed that guests could use when they start arriving in a steady stream in March. So this is that sofa - nothing too spectacular, just a nice plump blue futon - but you wouldn't imagine how many crappy futons there are out there. I've seen several that have literally a paper thin mattresses, and if I can't sit there for more than 30 seconds without getting a sore bum, no way I'll put guests to sleep on it for weeks. This sofa is a superb value for money - most sofa beds cost at least double that and aren't as good. (Or rather I'm hoping they won't be - don't seem to be... I ramble.)

While visiting Sears I also visited Raija and tried to look for a new hat and gloves that would match my new handbag. Found a really cute green Trish Stratus-style hat with a cute bow that I'm considering - haven't had a hat like that before. Gloves I finaly found from newly opened Accessorize on Burrard - can't go wrong with Accessorize (it's a shop based on the idea that it's got accessories in all the colours of the rainbow, ordered by colour - very cute).

And finally got good news - Battlestar Galactica has almost been renewed, and Ronald D. Moore is working on the first six scripts. Hooray! He's even got a blog, I mean a proper blog with webfeeds and all. Not that many entries yet, but he's just starting - will be looking forward to following that one.

Tired now. Later we're planning to go out with Clay and Laura and then play our new games. I'm especially looking forward in seeing how The Settlers of The Ice Age will work.
