Weekend report

Just finished reading Timeline by Michael Crichton. It was pretty entertaining. Just like reading a movie. Except it lasts longer. And it's a lot cheaper, because I read it on my Palm Vx. Reading books on the Palm has its upsides and downsides. Downsides are that there were no pictures, and I have to recharge it occasionally. Upsides are I can carry around like 5 or 6 books in my pocket. I think I'll put the movie in my Blockbuster.com queue. I'd imagine it's probably a terrible movie. I give the book a 7 out of 10.



Watched the movie Shopgirl this weekend. It was mildly interesting. It had some funny parts, but also a lot of random drawn out scenes like, panning over the Los Angeles cityscape with dramatic music going. I guess it's a comedy, but it's not one of those constant joke after joke type comedies. I give this movie a 6 out of 10.



Ate at this sushi place in downtown Mountain View, Yakko Sushi. I thought it was pretty good. They make a lot of spicy rolls, which I like, as long as they're not too extreme. Cuz you know, I gots a bit of a problem with the spice. But I guess I'm ok as long as I have plenty of green tea!
They had this one dish, it was called something like, spectactular seared sashimi orgasm. No kidding. The picture looked pretty crazy... seared slices of what looked like tuna sashimi arranged in like a flower, and some bright red and orange sauces sprinkled all over it, with some other things I can't remember. It was a bit pricey, though. I decided to skip it. Remember kids, you should never have to pay for an orgasm. I give this restaurant an 8 or 9 out of 10.

Oh yeah, and I went to this chinese place in that ranch99 plaza, you know, the chinese side of mccarthy ranch on the west side of the 237-880 interchange. And i found a worm in my food. That was pretty gross. Charles found one, too. It was white, and it had segments. Looked like some kinda insect larva. Dat no belong in heeya!
