Making Moves, Making Plans | Mo 12/19

I woke up at 11, which neatly lined up with Adrian's lunch so we went for the wagyu pho. I don't know what I was expecting wagyu to be, but it was great beef for the most part. A few pieces had a lot of connective tissue and were tough and chewy, but overall it was good. Now I'm chilling at home finishing the last of the Mak cheesecake.

Adrian and I hung out at home for most of the day since he had to work remotely, but eventually Helen came over and we baked cookies, which was a lot of fun. They weren't anything ambitious, but it was fun to put everything together and throw it into the oven, almost like an easy arts and crafts project. Also we didn't leave the butter out to soften so we tried a few hacks to do it quickly, but then Adrian tried dropping it butter into hot water which was so cursed to see it was amazing.

Around then I spoke with Min, Emily, and Cammy about dyeing hair and the plan changed a bit. Emily has recommendations for bleaching products from her roommate, Min already bought bleaching materials but not dye, and Cammy thinks that low-hassle dyeing may be the move for us. Maybe I'll come to LAN looking fresh for the new year.

Eventually Helen went back home and we waited for Matthew to come home to eat dinner together. When we did go, we had solid Indian food and I forgot how much I love it. There's no feeling like getting more naan and rice than you think you'll need.

Back at home I wanted contact lens solution since one side of my case had way less than the other, but then I got the idea to use my mouth as a pipette and slurp the solution to transfer it to the other side, which was so unhinged it was hilarious. I didn't actually do it, but I laughed so hard at the idea that I felt my abs get tired
