RQS and I fell asleep shortly after SNL ended, and woke up at 9:30 this morning. With the continuous rain outside, there was no way we'd be going out today.

We ended up watching YouTube videos for much of the day. Did we bother getting dressed and doing laundry? No. Did we do anything to clean up the apartment? No. We needed a day of relaxation, and we had one.
My brother called towards the afternoon, and we chatted for a while before he had to run off. Now that I have my new passport, RQS started salivating at the idea of using her credit card points to buy tickets for another cruise. I had to explain that chasing credit card points is a foolish thing, as the hidden cost of those points (in higher prices) is a foolish game. (Don't get me on the subject of excessive American credit card interchange fees and point accumulation - Europeans don't have this nonsense, and they are better off for it.) When she realized that she couldn't buy a cruise, she looked into buying a restaurant gift card. What I haven't noted is that I'm looking at paying for a cruise for the two of us, using a combination of my points (I rarely ever redeem them) and cash. I have no problems paying with cash, if there is a cash discount, and with plastic if there is no discount.
By the time we were ready for dinner, we were hungry. Luckily, we had enough food in the house to have a tasty meal without having to go to the supermarket. But this made us decide to do some apartment cleanup and some laundry tomorrow.
