Alright: GMAT has been taken, and my stash of chocolate has dwindled significantly, but I’m ready to get on with my summer.
That’s why, last night, a couple of nerdy friends and I stayed up until 3 A.M. playing, of all things on a Friday night, TypeRacer.
I can’t believe that 107 WPM puts me in 4th place, and that at certain times, the others were getting upwards of 120 WPM. I need friends who type more slowly so I can feel superior in comparison :P Even for such a fun activity, I was getting nervous and my stomach started to cramp up from the fun-induced stress—something tells me I need to learn to relax!
[Update: Eric just hit 150 WPM. FRIENDSHIP OVER.]
Reid and I hit up Aziza again last Sunday, since they are participating in the SF Dine About Town this month. I am persistent in being adventurous and trying their various dishes—the duck, the shrimp-chicken-lamb coucous—despite overwhelming consensus from Yelp and other friends that the lamb shank is THE dish to order. Reid only ever orders the lamb shank, and I think I have to finally concede. Rick Astley will give you up for this lamb shank.
We also made Spicy Mississippi Chicken Cakes from the Google Cookbook! They were pretty darn delicious.
Backpacking to Young Lakes in Yosemite next weekend with the Asparagooglers! Any excuse to shop at REI and Sports Basement is a good one.
