Going with Bo to get Mariage Liscense

 

Yesterday Bo and Umi were going to get a mariage liscense.  They were expecting to get married, but since they need another appointment to get married with a ceremony they will have to go back.

Before going to City Hall, we enjoyed some great seafood at Swan Oyster Depot (Yelp)

We had Oysters, Salmon, and they also got some Urchin.  I’ve had urchin before and don’t really care for it.  It was amazing that the urchin was still moving while Bo and Umi were eating it.

It was really nice of them to invite me out for their wedding, even if it didn’t actually happen.

Finished the Civ5 Game

Last night Steph and I finished the Civ 5 game.  I absolutely destroyed my civ to push it to full production for the science victory.  Before that we decided that India was getting too powerful, since they were higher score than either of us.  India was also starting to encroach on our borders.  We took a 2 front approach and pinched India in the middle.  We also had a far superior navy and were able to bombard the cities so that they had no chance.  We started taking out India’s ally, America, but competed the spaceship first.

More Civ5

After making some Thailand reservations, Steph and I played a good bit more of our Civ5 game last night.  We ended up destroying one civ that decided I was getting annoying.  I had a city really close to his border, but it was across water.  With that he wasn’t able to storm the shores, so Steph and I used our superior navy to bombard all his units and cities.  Eventually we took him down.  I get the feeling that a few other of my cities will find the same fate, but it is hard to say.

Game of Thrones S3E7

I really enjoyed this episode, and it made a lot of movements forward in the plots.  We went over to Simon, Josh, and Trey’s.  Simon’s friends were there and cooked some amazing garlic bread, giant cookie, baked brie, and pasta.  I had a tasty cup of Bailey’s for watching the episode

Hanging out at Jeremy’s

We went to Jeremy B’s place for the afternoon.  Stephanie and Jeremy spent the time painting mini’s and I spent the time updating the blog, looking up a little more Thailand info, and taking a glorious nap.  Jeremy’s cats were so fluffy, especially Ash.  His couch is really comphy as well, and it reminds me a lot of our couch.  We had some of the cherries that we got at the farmer’s market and they were phenomenal.

Civ 5

Steph and I played a good bit of Civ5 last night.  I got a really good situation where I could expand and grow quickly.  The empire I had got a bonus in the food and culture gained from city-states.  This bonus game in handy when I was expanding out and the cities would rocket to size 5 or 6 with no problems.  I had a problem with happiness but solved most of it from building Notre Dame.  We got pretty far, but still have a long way to go to finish the game.  Perhaps we can do that some day this week.

Factory Fun!

After getting back from the Elephant Bar, Steph and I played two rounds of Factory Fun.  I won both of them, but she did pretty well considering.  She has the problem of getting stuck in the line of thinking she was doing before.  This shows in factory fun in that once the machines are down she doesn’t want to move them.  She is starting to realize that things don’t have to be the way they were before, and she is doing better for it.

Elephant Bar Restaurant

After the martial arts tournament we went to a place called the Elephant Bar Restaurant.  It was a really great atmosphere.  The fans were big waving fans that went back and forth, and there was a wooden elephant head watching us dine.  The food was decent, but I’d be willing to go back just for the atmosphere.  We all got drinks since they had just finished a really tiring tournament, I got a Blue Moon which was really tasty.  Dan was really happy to get his long awaited beer, since he’d been talking about it since the 3rd to last match he had.  All of them were so tired.  I really enjoyed meeting them all (Chris, Dan, Jason, Heidle, Diana, Michael).

Martial Arts Competition (Watching)

I got to watch Steph and her dojo in a martial arts competition.  It was really cool to get to see them fight.  Jason was a really cool guy and had the 2 really funny parts of the fights.  He did a full Conan move, jumping up with legs splayed in front of him and doing a full downward slice right onto the head of his competitor.  He also was in the last match of the day with Chris and tried to rock-paper-scissors for the win (Video).  They ended up fighting anyway.
