A good couple of days. Had dinner with run4rabbit on Tuesday. I baked some chicken using a chinese spice packet I bought at Berkeley bowl. It turned out really tasty. The chicken came out succulent and juicy with a great smell from the spices. I was pretty proud of myself even though it was too easy to really be called cooking. Becca and I chatted for hours ( Read more... )

What to say, what to say. You ever go to update and just feel like you have nothing of true importance to put down. I know I do, but it's just not coming out. Oh well. I suppose I should go read all my friends journals, it's important to keep in touch. I just can't bring myself to. I shall be electronically lonesome for a week or two, LJ in exile ( Read more... )

Just to record it, the softball season ended rather poorly. We lost the playoff game and didn't get to play in the finals. I didn't play at all because we had an extra guy and I neglected to sub in halfway through the first game. I figured we would win and I could play during the whole second game.

Tomorrow I fly to San Diego for a few days with family. I get to see my cousin Courtney graduate from high school, which is pretty weird because one of my earliest memories is from when she was born. I also get to see Nicole. I'm ecstatic about that of course. And I'll see my Mom, which I'm looking forward to more than I usually do. We have been ( Read more... )

The expiration date on my carton of eggs says Jun 15, 1951.

I was busy busy busy this weekend. Went to San Rafael for dinner at a nice steakhouse with Joey, Minh-Hai, Victor, and his girlfriend Rei, who I had never met. Victor met her about a year ago when he was studying abroad in Japan. He seems pretty damn happy with her. She's just gotten accepted to SF state so she's moving here from Japan long term. I ( Read more... )
