Hey. Well it's been a fairly eventful day.
I was happy to spot our friend Chris Quan log into gchat today. Haven't spoken with him in a while. Turns out he may be visiting Colorado soon - which is great because that means that he'd be visiting me.

Ellen and I rode our bikes to a restaurant close to CSU called The Wok. I had a delicious plate of pork curry and rice and she had sesame chicken and rice. So good. Then after dinner, we were unlocking our bikes outside the building while I was trying to unwrap my fortune cookie. Well I was messing with the lock and unwrapping (apparently i can't multi-task) and the next thing I knew, I was eating my delicious little stale cookie without the fortune in my hand. It'd been chewed into pulp with the rest of it and it was too late to retrieve it in one piece. Luckily there was a trashcan nearby for me to spit out my good fortune.

I did forget to mention that Ellen got bit by a black widow - much to our shock and surprize. It was at like 3:00 in the morning a couple of days ago. We went to bed late, scrammbled into bed after the lights were out and she said there might be a spider in the bed. I thought "yah right, it's probably just a crumb or a piece of fuzz (like it always is)." I turned the light on and there on the tip top of our comforter lay a shiny, garbonzo bean-sized pearly black spider. It was poised. I put it in the bathtub and smushed the living daylights outta that creep. We slept on the futon for a couple of nights. She IS doing much better by the way - the pain has mostly stopped in all areas of her body but directly behind the bite. Ladies and Gents, she will live.

Ever seen Hot Fuzz? Pretty crazy movie. We watched it the other night. Then it dawned on me - "Those to guys are the same actors as in 'Shaun of the Dead'!" That's a good one too. I recommend both. Just be warned of the violence and cursing. "Is it true that there's a point on a man's head where if you shoot it, it will blow up?" - Danny Butterman. Lol.

I finally had an interview today. I was SO nervous about it - even though I had plenty of reason to believe that I was a little overqualified and that the work wasn't quite up my alley. But the interviewer was very nice and very easy to talk to. She put me at ease after only a couple of words. And I ended up walking away feeling proud of myself - which doesn't happen very often. That interview turned out being the highlight of my day - despite the fact that I didn't get hired. ^.^

Gosh, I need to upload the pictures that I took from Bhutan. Soon. Very soon.

Goodnight!
