Mumbo Jumbo

We just finished our weekly Poker game not too long ago and I'm exhausted, but I thought I would share some neat things with you.
  • Joe's Mom just sent me an e-mail to announce that her MacBook Pro just came today (as you may imagine, I am beyond jealous)
  • I was searching for some recipes today and I stumbled upon an instructional video for cooking a Thai breakfast on VideoJug
  • Plans are coming together for Joe's birthday!
    • His present is due to arrive on Friday
    • Truc and I are collaborating to make delicious Vietnamese dishes: Lau Thai (a seafood hotpot served with vermicelli noodles) and Crab & Asparagus soup
    • I will also attempt to make: cream puffs, snicker doodles, a yummy cake
  • I convinced everyone that we should eat at Flat Top Grill on Friday, and we're going to see 300 afterward
I've been putting my Spring Break to good use. Do you know what I did last night while Joe did his paperwork? I cleaned--a lot. I scrubbed the grout between the tiles in the bathroom. I removed the gunk from the sides of our bathtub. I went on a cleaning frenzy. I think that Monk is having an effect on me. I can't believe he got beat up in the last episode! How sad is that?

My training session on Tuesday for the job at school was very entertaining because my boss obsessed over his craving for a Big Mac the entire time. Randomly, he would announce, "Ooh! A Big Mac sounds so good right now..." or "Man, I want that Big Mac so bad!" and so on and so forth. I hope he got his Big Mac. I'll ask him about it next time. Speaking of the training session, we (one of the guys and I) got to see our "office." We're going to be working on laptops, which seemed strange to me, but I'm used to working on one anyway, so it doesn't matter. The boss cracked me up again because he got red staplers for us specifically to reference Office Space. I guess the office has been nicknamed "The Hole," because yeah... it's in the basement, behind some doors, and in the most hidden place I've seen on campus. I don't mind being a hermit, though.
