I continue to have more icons than meaningful things to say

Good news! My friend I hadn't heard back from is doing well! She, in fact, didn't get my text because of the giant photo of my cat. Technology can be so petty when it's jealous of my cat's excellence. :(

I also messaged my old boss from my part-time job at UCLA just telling her I was thinking of her and thanking her for all the stuff she taught me that I'm using in my current position. She sent me a message back all touched and happy to hear from me. This reaching out to people thing feels really nice.


The weather has been glorious this past week so I'm trying to get back into running. I don't like that I'm one of those people who stops during winter, but I feel like death running around a track/on a treadmill so I welcome the relative sunshine and warmth. I'm hoping that I'll soon be able to start biking to work again, too, but assuredly the weather will become terrible again and we'll have 30 more years of winter before spring finally arrives.


I want to be one of those people who can talk about her uninteresting day-to-day in an interesting way, but developing that skill takes a lot more effort than sitting in front of the computer and staring at moving pictures for a while. Alas.


Today's little happiness: My mom packs my lunch every morning because I'm a helpless 27-year-old so I often don't know what's in it until I pop open my tupper/bowl. Today was rice, beef, and broccoli -- simple but delicious. :D
