I forgot to mention that when I got home for the party last night I played a little Black Ops 2 on the PC. Steam is doing a free multiplayer weekend and I decided to check it out. I was not impressed. I liked the keyboard and mouse control and I was able to move around a lot better, but in the two games I played the lag was super bad and that took all the fun out of it. The majority of my deaths happened when my screen was frozen for a second or three. It could have just been a bad host both times but I didn't want to try it further. The lag seems to be so much more of an issue in Black Ops 2 than I remember in previous CoD games.

This morning I got to sleep in and it was great. And then I took a nap in the afternoon. It was also great. The rest of my time before work was spent in a fairly normal, lazy weekend fashion. I watched YouTube videos, including one on how to make a crochet flower. My plan for Mother's Day other than the gift card I got, was to make a crochet flower.

At work I made a few flowers but I don't know how I feel about them. I might look for a crochet leaf video tomorrow and attempt a last minute leaf to see if that helps. I also watched a few episodes of Arrested Development before the battery died on my DVD player. I couldn't find my power cord and I am assuming it fell out of my backpack in my room. I haven't looked yet. I hope it is in my room because if it isn't, it is lost forever.

The best part of the evening was hearing from one of my oldest friends. We ended up having a long, random text conversation, just like we used to do. I haven't heard from her that often as of late, even less often than my other friends, which is saying something. Hopefully that will change. She is hilarious and smart and I miss hearing from her. I only have a small number of friends and I am friends with them because I like them and I find them interesting. I need more of all of them in my life. It is too much work making new ones.
