Terry and TK bring it back
We got home where (e:paul) eventually passed out. Terry TK and I stayed up playing music videos, and before we knew it the sun was up and it was 7am.
For a little while the living room turned into a late 90's prom.
Yeah I know, vertical video. Terry didn't want me recording. He's so good though, I love when he sings.

Winos at Kuni's
Paul and I then went to Kuni's for dinner. It was so freaking good, and everything about the place is so nice. The waitresses were so friendly, the food was fresh and amazing, and all the food was so good. The tamago even had little designs darkened on it. I got the vegetarian combo while Paul got the sashimi I think. We split the seaweed salad and slaw. I felt super boug for eating there but the prices weren't as bad as I was expecting ($10 for my combo I think).

Breadhive launch
We met up with (e:heidi) and (e:dianne). Some Buffalo Rising writer asked us for a quote but we didn't have anything to say. I said he could use my name if he could come up with something good, though.
They had a bunch of different breads, granolas and spreads. My favorite was definitely the rug bread - it had all these different types of seeds in it, apparently a lot of rye.

Spring clean up
We filled a 15-foot dumpster with all the moldy rotting wood no problem. The garage is much cleaner and less moldy, although the roof still leaks. Terry nd I think we can build a new green roof or even a greenhouse for the garage - the flat roof set up is pretty easy to redo.
We didn't even touch much of the basement or attic, but that's for another day. I still felt so satisfied with getting stuff done outside on such an amazing day.

Terry got the front garden and bunch of the back ready for spring planting. I hope the cold doesn't kill everything already.

Nightmare at Dreamland
Friday night, (e:paul) and I went to the Melting point with Emily, Carrie and (e:czarkasm).
Afterwords, we met up with (e:terry), (e:heidi) and (e:flacidness) to go to the Nightmare show at Dreamland. The party was pretty fun - all the art was all animal bone themed and they had a whole wall of skeletons. There even was some skull tacked onto a virgin Mary statue.
Paul ended up being super allergic to the house since there were now dogs and rabbits living there. So we headed out up to Allen before he died, and had not one, but two rounds of Lloyd's (three if you're Paul). Then we finished up the night at Funky Monkey which was dead. The people there were boring and creepy.
Basra is now an official artist. We'll have to see whether he gets any offers for his work

Duolingo complete
I think Duolingo was really useful, and sort of frustrating, to get basic grammar and vocabulary down for reading and writing. But in terms of listening and speaking, I got almost nothing - I'm still pretty terrible but getting better.
I am going to keep using the review part to practice, but I think the only way I can pick up more is immersion with news/shows/music in German and trying to speak it when I can. It's hard for me to start speaking it, even to (e:paul) and (e:terry), because I mess up a lot and it gets frustrating. Back to chatroulette, or chat-de?
It's picking up fast and I really love learning it - I can't believe how much I know already when before this weekend ((e:joe,58063)) the only German phrase I knew was "Der Hund schwimmt!"

It's supposed to be nice all weekend. Maybe time for the second hike of the season?

Bierklub - IPA version
Plus, there wasn't even any gaming when we got back. Just a bean dip/dance/Smash Brothers party. For some reason I didn't want Terry to make the bean dip so I started it and subcontracted the rest out to (e:heidi).

Buffalo's comeback?
Could we finally be changing? I hope it's the start of an actual comeback. Sometime Buffalo feels stuck in the 70's with the crazy amount of segregation, how slow things get going, and the amount of nostalgia people have for stuff that wasn't even good - like when your old relatives talk about AM&A's and Your Host and everything else that's long gone. Maybe that'll actually change now that we have more jugenden.
Although there were false starts before. This 1979 report at my work predicted Buffalo would be back 400,000 people in 2000 (actual - 292,648, 259,000 today)

Spring hike at Letchworth
On the way home we ate at Medici House in East Aurora. I didn't have battery to take pictures, but they had a black bean enchilada ravioli that was so good.
(e:paul) and I came up with a great idea for a weather related app. I'm really excited about it.

We really wanted these crazy ice sheets to fall. Dynamite maybe?
