Weird things: So Gmail has those ads at the bottom of email messages that pick up keywords and tries to target ads. For all the comments on the rat pics, I keep getting ads for rat exterminators. Erm, yeah. Not so much.

And I got more instant Indian food from Safeway (I'm still so amused! My Safeway has instant Indian food! So cool!), which I can cook with my instant rice. Hee, I'm so lazy in the kitchen. And we used the boy's nifty Stanford coupons to get a free entree at the Indian restaurant nearby. I was so nice and didn't order palak paneer, even though I love palak paneer (mmmm spinach), because the boy is strange and doesn't like it =(. But I got some instant palak paneer for myself.

Then we went to the bookstore -- it's now becoming a habit to go every Thursday or so, because that's when the New This Week carts get restocked. It's nice being a former employee and knowing all this stuff. And! I found a signed copy of Jonathan Strange!! Ok, so I already have a copy. But I got it anyway, even though I already have one. It was signed! And I got my discount, heh. I think it depends on the cashier. Not that I'm complaining. Got Anna of Byzantium and Imagined Communities as well. My stack of non-fiction is quite alarming now.

And! My company is offering discounted tickets to the Dickens Christmas Fair in San Francisco! And double_helix and Alex are going! And dressing up! OMG SO COOL! Lalala, dressing up! So, er, does anyone know any good thrift shops around South Bay/Peninsula in which I could pick up assorted Victorian-looking things?
