Cooking with Mama

Ever since misa lent us Cooking Mama: Cook Off for the Wii, Yut and I haven’t been able to cook without saying, “just like mama!” every time we do something right and “good not mine!” every time we drop something. Except we don’t really do her accent right; I dunno what that accent is, [...]

Spammy Goodness

I don’t really check my junk mail box as much as I should, I mean, just in case some personal email got misidentified as junk. But I did today, and DUDE I was missing out!
“Teach your woman obediency!”
“Satisfy her!”
“When Love Comes Knocking”
“Become a real man…”
“Forget about the problem with your male device”
I should get [...]

Basic Basic Digital Photography For Now

After the crazy English course during the summer (5 5-page papers in 5 or 6 weeks!!!) and Calculus last semester, I thought I’d take Digital Photography this semester cos it’d be fun. So far it has been surprisingly (cos I don’t know much about photography really) way too easy, but from the looks of [...]

A New Computress

Yut’s old computer was getting on in years — 5 to be exact, which in computer years is definitely time for retirement. We thought about just buying one, but building mine was pretty alright fun, so we decided to look into parts instead. Although honestly, I think I saw a Dell ad for [...]

Ode on an Ice Cream Carton

Today the weather was really nice, 60s! Perfect for ice cream!

Actually I’m a total liar, we got that carton like a week ago, when the weather was bad. Maeda-en is my fave brand of azuki ice cream (to date, I’m willing to try others!) and it’s quite quite delicious. I know it [...]

Drafty No More

In case you were wondering what to do with the huge Guitar Hero box, here’s one possibility (credit Yut):

It’s our “new” under-the-door draft stopper. (Is there a better name for those things?)

Broken

Y’know, I thought the bad weather was done for the winter — I thought everything was all good. But no, it was just one day of reprieve. Today the rain came down hard, and I coulda sworn the wind kept changing direction, so it wasn’t even possible to point my umbrella the right [...]

Objection!

We just finished Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations, omg, it was awesome! I think it was the best Ace Attorney so far (the second was probably the least good, still good, just in comparison). Trials and Tribulations tied so much together and it was just fun. I can’t believe it’s the last [...]

Rain, Copious Rain

When I moved to NorCal, where people put on their wellies when it’s drizzling out, I made fun of the weather wimps. I thought seriously, wellies? It drizzled for a minute this morning! But omg, we’re having the worst rainy, humid, cold weather I can remember (around here), and I am totally [...]

Holiday

We went to my in-laws for the winter holidays, down in SoCal, where the weather is nice(r). I mean 60 degree days, maybe one day was colder and super windy, etcetc, can’t complain. We went to the San Diego Zoo, and I helped out CT with her site, and Yut helped his dad [...]
