Seems my week went from busy busy busy to open open open. No poker, no movie (well, I'm going to go anyway, by myself, but it's only an hour) and no party on Friday (postponed). All in all, though, it's for the better. I have a bunch of stuff to do to get ready for Conny. I keep procrastinating on the icky cleaning, and I'm rapidly running out of time. Perhaps I should just pay $70 and have the housecleaning service in my building deal with it... Hmm!
Bad plan, since I'd rather spend the $70 doing something fun with Conny. We finally scored tickets to Blue Man Group, which I tried to get before each time she visited, with no success. I'm looking forward to taking her and seeing her reaction. I have never laughed a performance quite as much as Blue Man Group. Some really clever, funny stuff. Clan Lord now treats clothing as items. It only took a few years, but we got it! Of course, now clothing has to be maintained... We'll see how much that blows shortly. My pessimistic guess is it will blow a lot. It's a pity you can't name items in your inventory. Having pants #1, pants #2 and pants #3 doesn't help me figure out which pants are the blue ones... I know why you can't name items (that's huge overhead), but some sort of "Wardrobe" window in the client, that showed a little color swatch of the selected clothing would be nice. I suspect that trying on clothing causes wear on it, so rapidly trying on different tops to get the right one has a penalty, I bet. But, all in all, a big step in the right direction.
