This afternoon
I'm heading out to the mall to play not-DDR at Dave & Busters (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

I return!
I went out to the mall alright, but I'd forgotten that those under 21 are not permitted without an accompanying adult. And I'm 20.
On the bright side, however, the (genuine!) DDR machine downtown is now fifty cents a play, down from seventy-five. I still have many tokens left.
And now, to shower!
(P.S. I did get the bedding while I was out at the mall. I will change the rabbit's cage real soon now.)

Lyttle Lytton
From Making Light: The Lyttle Lytton Contest!
As she explains, this contest was made in a similar spirit to the original Bulwer-Lytton contest, but with noticeably different judging criteria. Both were inspired by the oft-maligned opening sentence to Edward George Bulwer-Lytton's Paul Clifford (the original source of "It was a dark and stormy night"). However, the Lyttle Lytton organizer decided that the old contest was biased far too much towards long, convoluted sentences, so he made his require the sentence to be relatively short.
Naturally, this year's contest is already over. Thus, this advertisement is particularly pointless, since submissions won't be judged for over eight months.
Still a cool link, though.
