ZzZzZzzzzzzZZzzz

What a lazy weekend- I must have slept through a good 4/7 of it.

Today I tried to grab a late breakfast at a nearby restaurant, but with a line out the door I settled on Burger King. Get this- a steak, crispy onions, cheese, and mashed potatoes with bacon bits, all together in a bun.

It was such a disgusting commentary that I had to try it. Very filling. Thank God for Fast Metabolisms.

Took an IQ test the other day. I don't put much stock in them, but it was nice seeing that I gained a few points since the last time I took one- the Sudoku must be paying off. Heh, now my satirical self proclamations of "I'm a Genius!" actually have a little merit. Guess I'll have to stop saying it now- it's only funny if it's not true :)

Made a new addition to the list of things I used to hate but have come around to, like Beer and Spicy Foods. I've started listening to Techno/Trance etc.

I never understood it before (and I still don't) and found it somewhat grating, but I discovered that the rhythmic beats helped me focus while I was "coding". Then I kept it on during a break. And while I surfed the web. Now I'm pretty much listening to it all the time. As a side effect, it seems to be awakening in me a desire to learn to dance, which I've always hated.

Makes me wonder what I'll start liking next. Polo? Leaf Pressing? Ugh, let's hope not.
