not food poisoning
whatever mystery disease (what we thought was food related) that my l'il bro and i got on turkey day is apparently a bit more than some angry vegetables trying to ruin a day of family eating. i know this (because i am a doctor) because my dad got sick yesterday, and had the exact same symptoms. poor old guy. he's feeling better now. this makes the coincidence of l'il bro and i getting sick at the exact same time even more odd. and if we trace ourselves back 4 days prior to getting ill (the amount of time it took my dad to get sick), kirk and i were eating japanese food together. odd? hmmmm. i'm just glad my dad's ok.

brian and i went out for dinner at firefly, delicious south pasadena cuisine, then went home to watch some dogs on nova. i took an enjoyable sangria enduced nap, and woke up in time to watch the end of the biggest loser, which brian had to explain to me in detail. who knew.

today was another great day. packing car. cleaning car windows (i've been longing for this for days!) running errands: getting a new phone (the old one had some problems and they kindly replaced it hassle free, i love sprint), dropping some clothes off at out of the closet, and doing some inspirational browsing at the shops in south pasadena. the best part of the day, however, was my leisurely sleep in! i decided to just stay curled up in the warm bed until 11:30, watching the sun and blue sky and trees out the window. it was great, especially since this is my last day before hitting the eastbound road.

who loves driving? i do!
blogging may be sparse for the next days, but that doesn't really matter since no one reads this blog anyhow.
