Much busier than anticipated. I got up late, having stayed late at the very cool solstice party. Then zzbottom came over to give me my Christmas present! So I now have a camera. I need to get batteries for the light meter though, so I'll do that tomorrow. I want to try to shoot at least one roll of film before my photography class starts on the 13th of January. We had lunch (I made steak and biscuits, and I made gravy from the leftover marinade from the steak) and played several games, including Carcassonne, Casino (a two-player card game), and Battleline. Then I took my shirt off for a photo shoot. I didn't actually get something I wanted to use for a userpic, but I got one userpic-worthy one for zzbottom. Then we went and saw The Last Samurai, which I thought was excellent. Or at least I really enjoyed it. Then we headed to beowabbit's place for some dinner and some Cities & Knights. Andrew (does he have an LJ?) also played with us, so it was a crowded 4-player game which was very fun. It was Andrew's first game, but he picked it up very quickly, and that made the game very enjoyable, too.

And now to bed, much too late. My mom made it in to my sister's, but I haven't talked to her yet. I imagine I'll see her soon.
