So Much Raw Fish!

Rich and I went out for my birthday dinner tonight and yes, as promised, we finally got the 36 piece sushi boat! I don't even know what all the different types of fish were, but there were definitely slabs of salmon, tuna, mutsu (swordfish), eel, octopus, and cooked crab and shrimp (which I didn't eat cuz I don't like how it's prepared). There were also slabs of two other kinds of mystery fish, but all of them were good. There were also an assortment of rolls, including some really good ones with spicy tuna. Besides the sushi, we got crab rangoons as usual and I had a small bowl of miso soup. It was an expensive evening, but I think it was worth it-- especially cuz who the hell knows when I'll get a chance to have it again!

Admittedly, my whole digestive system is still not doing well, but I'm not going to blame it on the raw fish. It could be, but everything's just been messed up for a few days now, so it could be anything. I'm so used to it by now. . .

I don't know what else to say right now. I was gonna write about the research seminar thing I attended and spoke at, but I might just do that in the scandalous notebook instead, as a more permanent way of recording my thoughts.

I completely forgot until earlier this evening that "Kevin's" party is after work tomorrow. I don't know what I'm doing regarding that, I guess it will depend how I'm feeling tomorrow. I was gonna go with Chris, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea. He's had to sleep over at the past few Brooks "outings" cuz he tends to get significantly past the tipsy stage, and I'm not sure I want to deal with that. :p So chances are I'll just be coming back here after work, and maybe I will have a pumpkin ale or two while I read Heidegger or play Katamari. My exciting life, hehe.
