Last night we had lightening without the torrential storms. It was beautiful to see the flashes over the ocean while we ate dessert and drank too much retsina. Retsina is a white wine with pine pitch in it -- it's much better than that sounds. As a date exclaimed on my last trip, horrified when I ordered a glass, "you know that's the stuff that's too bad to sell abroad, right? That's why we stick pine pitch in it -- to cover the smell!" Whatever, we think it's fine.
After dinner, we played the Weather Game. This is where you pick a few categories and then describe one of your companions. Then everyone has to guess. I thought this had hurt feelings written all over it, but everyone has been nice about their descriptions. Last time it was harder, but now that we've spent 24/7 with each other for five weeks, everyone guessed on the first try. Here's mine, courtesy of Genevieve:

D'oh. Exciteable is not a verb, but let's just pretend it is.
Love it! The sassy shoes are very you -- I'll have to stroll by French Sole and see if they have a pair that meets that description...
Person: Renee Russo. Place: FBI Academy. Verb: Persevering? Mixed Drink: Malibu Stacy (nod to Simpsons with the added splash of cherry juice to the malibu and pineapple juice). Shoe: Brown, detailed, boots with a great heel (stylish, but able to wade through . . .err . . mud.
