Mmmmm, foooooood
Nov. 26th, 2009 11:00 pmThis Thanksgiving I:
- Almost killed my laptop. I spilled this yogurt smoothie thing all over my keyboard. I cleaned it up. I gave it a day to dry off. It's turning on (yay!) but some of the keys aren't working. Which is particularly unfortunate seeing as I need them to type in my password so I can log in. Basically I can turn my computer on, but I can't actually use it.
- Read an awesome book. Born to Run by Christopher McDougall -- kind of like the Guns, Germs, and Steel of running, only a much easier, much happier read.
- Ate. Because fuck giving thanks, this holiday is all about the food. My mom made roast duck, stuffing with jalapeƱo, Chinese style vegetable stir-fry, red beans and fried plantain. Well, and rice, but I don't like basmati, so I didn't eat any. And it was delicious. And not at all the flavor clash it appears to be when I write it all out. My dad made his signature dinner salad and chocolate pecan pie. Mmmmmmpiiiie.
Tomorrow: Black Friday shopping and my family will be going to the theater to see The Men Who Stare at Goats.
