Last week was busy. I got through (or mostly through) all of my work. I got a bit behind on my reading and ended up waking at 3am to read until 6am. I then took a “nap” for four hours, so I suppose I could have just done the reading at 7am, but so is life.
Also went to “Japan-town” in Porter Square. There’s this one mall where all of the stores (mostly restaurants) are authentic Japanese. Nothing’s fancy – it’s the sort of thing you’d find on a street corner. Melody and I tried the ramen shop. It was alright, but I’ve had better ramen. Somewhere between styrofoam and this place in Tokyo where I ordered a dish simply because it was the only thing I could read. Whatever I ordered there was really good.
I also caught “Hot Fuzz” with Ben (from my lab) and Melody. It was everything I expected (and I had some high hopes). Most of the previews had a British theme. The preview for 28 weeks later starts well but I have a feeling it’s going to devolve into yet another zombie movie. I’ll probably see it regardless. I really liked the first one, and not just because it featured a zombie priest.

I also found a pint of “Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream” in the Central Square 7-11. It was my last attempt after visiting every convenience and grocery store in most of Cambridge. And it was gooooood.
At last an excuse to eat 100% fatty ice cream
Media center messed up? Messed up twice?
I will let Godwell know!
[...] in my calendar, but my phone and computer will audibly alert me so that I get there early. I once went to almost every store in Cambridge to get a pint of Colbert’s Americone Dream. I’m not going to describe what I sucker my mother into making when I come home to visit and [...]
