i made a whole bunch of marinara sauce from scratch this weekend. it's quite possibly the best sauce i've ever had.
knee felt good enough to run again this morning. kicked out 5 km on it. actually, the knee didn't feel 100%, but i was sick of not running. so, i ran on it. it actually feels fine right now, so maybe it just needed to a little run to work some kinks out (probably not true, it'll probably be sore tomorrow).
head first design patterns is an amazing book. i like design. graphic design, software design, culinary design... okay, the last one is kind of made up. but, there is a little bit of truth in it. i mean, the older i get the more i recognize the various patterns and similarities in all sorts of activities. whereas i'm not extremely creative behind an easel, i can envision what things taste like behind a stove and come up with amazing foods. while i'm not the best programmer, i can whip out a decorator design pattern and apply it to a project without ever seeing the design pattern spelled out for me (basically, i just learned that my approach to solving a problem actually has a name - that i reinvented a well-known design pattern).
well, time to break software.
