I wish my origami skills were up to making a katamari, but I don't think they are. Any thoughts crafty friends? http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=128 I had a bad cold for a couple weeks right after the wedding, and I've got another bad cold again. The Internet tells me that lack of sleep increases the chance of catching a cold. Maybe I need to start getting to bed at 10:30 instead of somewhere ... http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=120 Since it's a lazy Saturday in which the only productive things I have done so far are learning how to french braid my hair, buy a chocolate bar from the corner store across the street from my apartment and get a chai latte and muffin from cafe 504 across ... http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=115 I've been switching between worrying and panicking.

Instead I ended up trying to write a ruby gem. I have a lot of stuff going on these days, the constant wedding planning, ... http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=77 To Vancouver next weekend. It's been a really long time since I've been back there. I remember dragging Jeremy down Robson St. on Friday nights, when it was usually raining heavily, trying to get into Gyoza King, then generally failing and heading over to Hon's. I think I'll attempt ... http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=76 I met with Brenda on Friday post-work for wedding related discussions. It went well and I headed home around 8 pm. About 4 blocks from home on my last leg of walking around the lake, I looked across the street and saw three guys running quickly into an apartment ... http://erica.urbantroglodyte.net/?p=75 So there was a riot in downtown Oakland on Wednesday. I was walking home around 8:30 that night by myself after hanging out with knitting friends after work.
