On lighter notes

  • Slovenian woman rides around the world solo on BMW F650. She wasn't going for speed, either--took a few years, a very circuitous route, and accumulated some amazing new experiences along the way. Be impressed, and be sure to check out the photography--from 74 different countries on every continent. :)

  • For V Day, from Steph & Matt, I got a box of Reeses Cups, a box of a single large Reeses heart, and a two-pack of movies--Stir of Echoes (Kevin Bacon, Thriller/Horror, "In every mind there is a door that has never been opened") and The Ninth Gate (Johnny Depp, Horror/Thriller, "Leave the unknown alone"). Watched Stir of Echoes last night with parents; it was pretty good. Will watch the other eventually.


  • Today, worked 11-7:30, free Pizza Hut pizza! Woo!


  • Caught part of the Grammys during dinner.. eh. Pop is nondescript, rap sucks, I still like John Mayer, and my mom didn't think Dixie Chicks should've won for Country (but I forget who she wanted to win--a particular guy.)


  • Noticed that due to a recent code change, mutual friends on one's "friend of" list are no longer bolded, which sucks--though they're sitll bolded on all -other- userinfo pages, so it doesn't even make sense from a "Database load decrease" standpoint. Don't yet know if it was intentional or a side-effect.


  • Happy 19th birthday, Elisia
