- Today was the first day of my weekend so it’s traditionally errand day. Went to get a weekly lunch with J (at Moa, our fave Korean spot). I had my usual kalbi lunch special. I don’t know what it is about short ribs that makes them so delicious to me. Though I would like to say that the bit of meat around the bone is my favorite bit. That slight chew and slight fat and all the flavor factor just hits right.
- Then it was off to Oriental Food Market, where I can get my fix of Filipino food. I’m not a great cook, so I rely on Filipino aunties for this hit of nostalgia.
- Then Target, which, I know that there’s an active boycott but I also work at a corporation owned by Amazon and I’m not quitting any time soon because I like money, so I don’t think I could participate in a boycott in good faith.
- I started playing Genshin Impact in earnest today, got as far as the first confrontation with Stormterror. But I already can see the appeal in the diverse cast of characters. Not enough for me to want to cosplay them yet, but it’s getting close.
- There was a sharp jolt of an earthquake at around 7:45pm today. Just as I was still working on this post! Around 4 on the Richter scale apparently.
- J made corned beef and cabbage in the instant pot (in honor of St. Patrick’s Day), and unfortunately the meat was a little too tough. I think it didn’t run as long as it should have.
- My Hitori Gotoh (main character from the anime Bocchi the Rock) figure came in the mail today! I was concerned that there would be an additional tariff or tax because I was importing it directly from a Japanese store, but there was nothing extra to be paid.
- And that’s my day…so far lol
