I'd Write More Often

But really there just isn't that much to keep you guys updated on right now.  We are just working away at our project.  Our first review meeting is next Tuesday though, which will get here quickly I'm sure.

I did manage to ride my bike to and from campus on Monday, as the sun was out all day and literally no clouds in the sky.  It was a good ride, but I didn't bring enough for lunch or snacking, and wound up having to make a stop for some food and drink on the ride back home.  The route I took made it about 18 miles round trip I think.  Ironically though, I left the house about 30 minutes after I would've had to for the bus, and I passed the bus leaving campus as I was getting there! I averaged about 11 mph, the off-road tires make it hard to maintain much more speed.

Sainsbury's finally had scallops left on Sunday, which I'd had a hard time finding for some reason.  So I made a salad with them, using some other vegetables and some sauteed scotch bonnet pepper.  I used a bit too much of the pepper though (they have the same heat rating as habanero's - didn't realize this when I purchased them) and wound up having to cut some of the heat with blue cheese dressing.  Still a good dinner though.  I used the second portion of them last night sauteed with some tomatoes, mushrooms and peppers and served them over rice.  Came out pretty good, but I think I put in a little too much salt - either in the tomato mix or the rice.

That's kinda my update for now, been trying to organize some things in the room a little to make packing and moving easier too, not sure how much that will help though.

  1. oh, totally forgot to mention this - because of the clear sky Monday night, I got to see the International Space Station with Discovery trailing behind it fly by! Was reminded that I forgot because I just saw the NASA video of the landing a few minutes ago.
