It's been a long day and I'm really tired so here's a really quick summary of the first day of my 36th year…– woken up at 8:30am by Pace bringing me in a gift bag. Turns out to be Beatles pyjama pants and a Beatles t-shirt. Sweet! (Although realizing that getting woken up at 8:30am […]
A pretty fun Ask MetaFilter question asks what are the most strange yet enjoyable food and flavour combinations you know?
