sticky rice

So here are a few of the random things I did today:

Found the collections of fragments in the Classics library and enjoyed it immensely.

Read some German, and learned that you can put prepositions after their nouns, as in "Der Thematik nach lebte S. wohl nicht vor Augustus." (literally: the theme according to lived S. comfortably not before Augustus; i.e. Based on the theme, S. probably did not live before Augustus.) Go Deutsch!

Found out that everybody and their brother goes grocery shopping on Saturday mornings.

Saw R2D2 in the guise of a mailbox. Y'know, the blue ones...that look like R2D2. This one was not blue. It was gray and black, and whatever other colors R2D2 has.

Got my hands excessively greasy in attempting to clean my bike chain, and determined that I should replace it, because some of the links are just not happy.

Stood in front of the mirror after practicing horn and buzzed my lips to make them stop hurting...and then buzzed them some more because it was fun. I never realized before the full range of sounds a person can achieve just by buzzing their lips. You should try it. But maybe not in front of a mirror, because you'll look really silly.

Saw a hummer with those rims that spin around after the car has stopped, and a license plate cover that said: Got sticky rice?

Put off my homework making this list.
