I get home around 6:30p everyday, so the only way to get dinner on the table in a timely manner is by cooking what I can the night before.
It’s 10:30… now I can take a shower and watch a little TV before bed.

Ok here’s part 2… I’ll keep it short since last time I talked about the fancy cup and foil crap.
Same unopened fancy cup as the last one
Here you can see the bits of dried kimchi and cheese squares
The kimchi has been hydrated and the cheese is all melty
Conclusion: I wish there was more cheese! I know, the combination sounds wacky. But the Japanese are onto something here… I’ve had udon with mochi and cheese @ Sanuki No Sato and it was awesome! This wasn’t awesome, but it was still good. The soup tastes just like those Nong Shim bowl deals you see in the stores.
My friend Marc’s family is from Molokai. I often hear him tell people about what a jerk Andrew Zimmern is… but I’ve been saying that for years. Marc usually talks about how he saw Andrew Zimmern do an episode in Hawaii where he was repulsed by Spam. I shared this story with Logan because he likes pineapples and coconuts and fruit punch, and he readily had this link available to me within seconds – http://honolulu.metromix.com/events/blog_post/really-andrew-zimmern-really/728725/content
And then had this to say:
f**k that guy
he can choke on a dick musubi
Hahaha! I was laughing really hard… time to make another urban dictionary entry…
Every once in a while I’ll talk to one of my single friends about finding that right person. Often times I’ll tell them to just make small talk with the strangers around you – you could open a door to a new relationship or at the very least you can improve your socializing skills. I randomly found this quote today and it reminded me of all those conversations I had with my friends.
I used to feel so alone in the city. All those gazillions of people and then me, on the outside. Because how do you meet a new person? I was very stumped by this for many years. And then I realized, you just say, ‘Hi.’ They may ignore you. Or you may marry them. And that possibility is worth that one word.
Wait a minute, I got that wrong.
Logan posted this youtube clip of a documentary about Eric Bana and his love for his car. It’s called Love The Beast.
I got really excited and wanted to add it to my blockbuster queue, but surprise, surprise! Blockbuster doesn’t have it like Netflix does! Dangit, why haven’t I switched back to Netflix yet?
If you have Netflix, can you watch this for me?
So Nadine showed me this awesome site called pixlr.com that allows you to edit images via a flash application. Translation: Do image editing work without using Photoshop! They have a few photo editing apps on there, but I use Pixlr Editor.
I haven’t used it that much yet, but I have used it on my junky slow laptop that I wouldn’t dare install Photoshop on. The interface is a lot like Photoshop. Translation: It’s pretty much a blatant imitation of Photoshop.
For the light weight user who just does stuff for blogging, this is a really good option. You can resize, crop, optimize for web, use the healing tool, magic wand, change levels, blur, vignette… awesome!
Something I do a lot is take screen captures, so I downloaded this plugin called Pixlr Grabber for my firefox browser that allows me to right click a website and open it directly in the image editor.
Nerdy side note: Something like this is super important to the web centric OS movement. I really think that one day we’re all going to have web based operating systems like Google Chrome OS, and development of applications like these are essential to making that happen.
