Other things that my college roommate and I got up to while she was here:

• Watched Clue
• Went out for tapas (including bacon-wrapped dates)
• Ate a lot of the cheese we bought in the city
• Hung out at my office for a day, where she read and tried out the massage chair while I tried to get work done

She also decided that my kitchen was lacking in a few things, so Boyfriend and I now have a towel rack, a dish rack, a fruit bowl, and (this one is Boyfriend's favorite) a rack to hold all of our cutting boards.

She also pointed out that we have what appears to be a dogwood tree in full bloom in our backyard, which I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit that I hadn't even noticed, since I never go into the backyard.
