Since the last post:
- Got a PhD (end product was pretty good, everything leading up to that point was painful, i mean "memorable")
- Baked lots of bread
- Got a fancy new DSLR Nikon camera + 18-200 lens
- Porchfest, one of my all-time favorite events
- Read Steinbeck's Cannery Row, an absolute classic -- describing the undescribed (the little things, the emotions of the marginalized), ignoring the indescribable (deaths in one sentence or less)
- Baked home-made pretzels -- amazing
- Went to the opening of (Le)Bronwyn in Union Sq -- pretzels, spaetle, sausages, beer
- Barry McGee at the ICA
- First ever trip to the Super 88 in Allston + dim sum
- Fantastic tofu bao baos at Doowee & Rice
- Saw "Great Gatsby" -- decent, overproduced
- Generally basked in the sun
And now, I've just arrived in Moore, Oklahoma, 36 hours after another massive F5 hit the town -- the last was in 1999 and was the strongest tornado ever recorded (250 mph). Preliminary estimates for this one are at 200-210 mph.
