Life, the Universe and Everything. Ok maybe not.
Been a pretty uneventful couple of weeks since coming home. I'm working pretty much every day, but did manage to escape the store for a couple of outings.
Two Sundays ago went to the beach with tenshiryuu and combichristian . It was really nice, we played in the water and lazed on the sand. Later we took a nice drive along Pacific Coast Highway and then had dinner at an AWESOME garlic restaurant called Garlic Joes. Nom nom garlic french fries.
It's also been MONSTROUSLY hot since we came back. Last week was really bad. I haven't seen 110 degrees in a really really long time.
It cooled down for a couple of days, but now it's back to raging hot. Tomorrow's supposed to be 104.
Last week we went out to celebrate somafeysuicides 25th birthday. We went to the most amazing restaurant/bar EVER. It's called Jurassic, and it's (obviously) a dinosaur themed bar. The walls look like cave walls, the waitresses dress like SEXY CAVEWOMEN and there are fossils embedded into the tables and everything.
Plus they have a huge fucking t-rex skeleton in the middle of the restaurant floor. How goddamn awesome is that?
This was laminated onto all the menus, lol.
This must be a problem here, lol. CLASSY.
Not one but TWO signs in the women's restroom asking you to puke in the sink instead of the toilet. For the record the bathroom sink looked like a kitchen sink with a garbage disposal...
For the past week this white pigeon has been coming to my store to hang out. For the first few days it kept walking in the store. Walking, not flying. We shooed it out, but it came around to the back door and walked in. It perched on the tv and looked pretty comfy, so we let it stay in overnight. The next day we had to kick it out, but it came back. Again. And again. So finally we put a little tray of birdseed and water outside the front door of the store. It shows up a few times a day and hangs out eating and watching people come in and out. I think it may have been a pet or something? It really likes people and it tries to walk in the store behind customers like he's going "don't mind me, I'm with her." It's really cute.
Speaking of really cute, Dexter has the adorable habit of sleeping on his back.
D'aww. Lolol crazy cat lady house much?
I think the only good part best part of being home is having my kitchen. I love to cook, and I've been doing it almost every day.
Been experimenting with veganizing a lot of the foods I saw in Japan but couldn't eat. So far pretty successful!
I also made the best fucking sandwich ever goddamn.
Also been making different flavors of home made ice cream every few days. Found the most brilliant recipe ever online. Basically all you need are bananas. You freeze them and then whip them up in a food processor for 5 minutes and you have thick, creamy awesome ice cream. Without the fat or sugar, and dairy free. But hurrr, I added agave nectar and vanilla soymilk, so much for that no sugar bit. I've made straight banana and strawberry banana so far, tomorrow I'm gonna give chocolate peanut butter a go.
Seriously, try this shit, it's really fucking good.
Last Sunday I went with my mom and aunt to the Greek festival they have in my city every year. Mom's side of the family is Greek, so I'm half. Didn't get any ouzo, but I will at the next one for sure.
Stealthy picture of the musicians and dancing. Didn't want to get too close or they ROPE YOU IN for dancing. And that shit scares me.
While I was in Japan my mom had my carpet taken out and I got some new furniture. (finally, a real bed!) I just finally got around to putting everything back together.
Got new shelves, and my mom took everything off of my old furniture while I was gone. SO that means she had the personal joy of taking each and every single one of my filthy gay porn-filled doujins off my shelf and putting them into storage boxes. Lololol.
This is weird, but my mom and I have this THING where we take this platic figure of the Jack in the Box guy and hide him around the house for the other to find. Like, she'll hide him in my box of cereal, and then I'll stick him in her box of cigarettes and so on. It's been going on for years, and most of my friends and family are in on it too, lol. Once she taped him to my class presentation board and I didn't notice until I got to school and opened it up. WELL just now I was taking pictures of my stupid weaboo room for this post and as I was resizing them I was like. ... FUCK.
SHE ALWAYS ONE UPS ME GODDAMN HER.
