I learned how to clean squid today. Pull out the body (tentacles included) from the soft fleshy shell. Dig out the yucky stuff from the shell and take skin off shell. It smells terrible and my hands still reak of squid guts. Wash shell and body really well. If you cut the shell into rings, you've got restaurant style calamari. We didn't do that.

homestarrunner.com has a very entertaining 16 color rpg game called peasant's quest. The toons section, under "shorts", has a hilarious trailer for the game. I just finished beating the game. It took me 3 hours because I never found the map, although it is on the first screen. Anyway, give it a try. You'll forget entirely about King's quest

Much Love,

Leaving Ann Arbor is not easy. I knew it would be difficult to change my life and detach myself from everything I did here. But I also knew that good experiences would await me in California. A new job, some new friends, and new projects. I thought that I would share them with her.

Last night was totally nuts. I was hanging out with Dave at Sidetracks and we just decided to order another beer when all of a sudden it started pouring and we had to move inside. There was quite a party going on in there so it was a real surprise when the bartenders shut us all up to hear the national weaher service report on a mondo tornado ( Read more... )
