Being that I've had generally good experiences meeting celebrities and/or people I idolize, I was kind of disappointed to find out that Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock) was kind of a butt.

I actually got myself to go kickboxing today. It hurts. I'm sore. And I looked so gross leaving the gym. Yet, somehow, I feel great. I should do this more often.

Why did it take me so long to start listening to the Magnetic Fields? Bought their most recent album on a whim and I think I'm in love.

April Fool's. I know it happens every year, but I fall for something every year. I never fail to fall for at least the first few items on the EFF's April Fools newsletter. I also kind of want the fake thing that Google comes up with every year. This year was some Google multitask feature.

Arms are also sore because of an hour of playing Just Dance 3 yesterday.

Time for gardening with Chris.

If you donate at least $30 to Mozilla right now, you get a shirt. I've been a big Mozilla fan since 2004, not just because I like their browser, but also because of the ideology behind the organization. It's just taken me forever to do something about it. I guess now I have a t-shirt to show how much of a fan I am. Yay!

Finished the programming midterm around ten last night. I guess it was partially my fault for not checking, but a reminder even on Saturday evening would have made me start it a tad bit earlier. So dumb. On the other hand, in that panic induced programming fest, I realized that I've retained a lot more knowledge about programming than I thought I had.

I've got a lot of things going on these days. For some reason, the fact that I don't have an actual legal job means that I think I can pile on endless other activities. They are all doubt fun and rewarding, but they keep me so busy. I don't think I got to bed before 2 at all last week. Trying to change that this week, but who knows if that'll happen. Well tonight instead of working on the proposal I'm supposed to write up, I sent out a really cool job app, did my second round of author edits, fixed up privacy law blog post that's going up in the am and did some work on a pro bono case that I've taken on. Actually, you know what? I actually got stuff done with this proposal as well. I guess I'm just awesome like that. Maybe.

Hm. Apparently I have a programming midterm due at midnight tonight. ...Way to drop a ball.

Earthquakes are hosting a 5k/10k. Might give me an actual goal to train for with my running. And the proceeds go to charity. Even better.

It's annoying that I can spit out random blog posts like this one at the drop of a hat, but the blog post that I've been working on re: privacy the last few days hasn't made as much progress as I would like.

I've been trying to make myself cook more these days. Every week Mia and I have a cooking night. Last week we made Thai red curry with coconut rice. Tonight, I made a healthy carbonara dish. Definitely not as good as the real thing, but it didn't come out too bad. And I have lunch tomorrow.
