Been a while

Haven't updated the blog in a while due to circumstance. My friend's laptop was stolen and I lent her mine. I can't seem to access the blog editor from my work laptop : ( Also my work laptop does not surf off my neighbor's wireless as well as mine does. Anyway, not too much going on right now. Decided Birkham yoga is just too warm unless it's really cold outside. So I found another studio but haven't been yet. There is a massage school just 3 blocks down from where I work. I went there today during lunch for a discounted student massage. It was pretty good. Since it is affordable, close, and I'm saving money carpooling, I'll try weekly/bi-monthly massages for a while. We'll see if that helps stress/mood/muscle tension.

I've been carpooling daily on the commute home. My company has a mailing list for people who want to carpool to San Francisco to save on the $4 bridge toll. That's $20 per week saved, Yeah! Plus it's kind of fun to watch the flurry of emails starting at 3pm for rides & riders. It's sort of like whack the groundhog game. You try to snap up riders fast, haha. Yesterday I even traded my riders : ) As you can see this is actually a bright spot in my work day..... And this week we started a morning carpool with people who live on my route in. $2 per person per morning ride adds up $$ Plus we all get to work earlier : ) I've met people in different parts of the company too. A couple of the girls are a little crazy in a fun & interesting way. Makes for a fun/fast commute.

Stopped in a Russian bakery yesterday and had some cheese piroski. It was interesting. I want to try a potato one next. I also want to try this Egyptian place on my street. Supposedly it's the only Egyptian restaurant in the city.
