It’s engagement season…
Congratulations to T&E and S&C!!! Both 11 years in the making… awww
Still, no weddings that I am going to, which those of you who have been going to tons of weddings already – yes, we’re at that age – would tell me to be thankful for. And I am, in a way, I hate having my weekend plans dictated so far in advance and depending on the group of friends, already knowing that I will have a marginally good time at best… but on the other hand, I am kind of eager for my closest friends to get married, because I would just be that happy for them…
Totally different topic: Has anyone read “The Secret Lives of the Sushi Club” (aside from the 4-5 people I lent it to)? I thought of the book last night after I finished reading “The Chocolate Lover’s Club“. (Yes. I’ve read Fight Club. I love books with the word Club in the name? Interestingly- or perhaps not- the book I wrote has a temporary title of “The FC Mystery” where FC stands for Foodie Club. I’m just kidding about loving books with the word Club in it. Chocolate Lover’s Club was a gift, and Fight Club was just an excellent book. Seriously. Much better than the movie, but made better by my having seen the movie already and using the same actors in my mental movie.) ANYWAY… you’d think The Secret Lives of the Sushi Club was, like, a chick lit, right? All fluffy and shit?
WELL IT’S NOT. It has terrorists and bombs and people dying and it just is way too serious for its title. I was pretty mad about the false advertising.
Anyway, I’ve been getting slammed at work left and right. So odd to be this busy on a gorgeous wonderful day! I slept at 1:30 am and yet, woke up happy and continued to be happy throughout the morning. I even made the earlier bus (I’ve been catching the bus that makes me 2 minutes late for work every morning for the past week… booooooo….) and went promptly to sleep in my seat, not even waking when someone sat next to me! How awesome is that?
I’m in a great mood, and I think I know why…
Look!!! I actually bothered with a halfway decent bento that isn’t just 2 items in each box.
So I figured out. It’s a vicious cycle. Go to sleep late, wake up groggy and don’t bother with making a decent bento, feel worse throughout the day knowing lunch is pretty crappy… So today I’m actually feeling good, so I think that’s really why. Fascinating!
My dinner last night – miso soup with mushrooms. Damn tasty if you ask me. It kept me full until about midnight… had I gone to sleep before that, I’d have been fine… oh well.
Can’t win them all!
Have a great Thursday everyone!

it’s good that you make lunch. i’m not so disciplined. i like being served. heehee!
re your comment: yeah, i’m not exactly in a rush but i know i can’t wait too much longer. i’m getting kind of old.
Yes, I want friends to get married soon so I can be happy for them too! haha But funny enough, I think I may just be one of the first ones to get married first…
And thanks for the books added to my “to read” list. ^_^
Yum, bento!
dude i know three ppl that got engaged this weekend. wtf… haha
now that’s an impressive bento. congrats to your friends.
Reeeaaaly? Miso (with the mushrooms) can get you full? I’m gonna have to test that theory out.
