One could say that I wasted this morning away&#8230;I&#8217;d prefer to think I relaxed it away.  However you interpret it, I have a lot to do.  <\/p>\n<p>Last night I went out with some friends from school.  We started at the Irish Lion, an (obviously) Irish pub that has the <i>best<\/i> stew.  Stew is great on cold days, great comfort food.  (On a side note, I look forward to making stews and chilis and soups once I purchase a stock pot.  If you come across one for cheap, let me know!)  The Irish Lion also sells beer by the yard, that is they serve you a beer in a glass that is a yard long.  They&#8217;re hard to drink from, but fun nonetheless.  I chose a half yard, because I wasn&#8217;t into drinking an entire pitcher of beer in a single sitting.  <\/p>\n<p>We later moved on to The Upstairs Pub, which had no cover charge (always a plus).  It&#8217;s a cool bar because you can chill there, and there&#8217;s no false pretenses looming in the air.  That is, no one is overly dressed and trying to act cooler than they really are.  At the same time, it&#8217;s not a dive bar, so the people are at least a bit cool.  <\/p>\n<p>At the end of the night we jogged over to La Bamba&#8217;s&#8230;the local late-night burrito joint.  Reminded me of my old college days&#8230;how many nights did I spend in cheap-ass taco shops?  How I long for one more California burrito at Lolita&#8217;s, or a Jumbo from Roberto&#8217;s II&#8230;the Mexican food is fine here, but it&#8217;s no San Diego&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I bought a CD yesterday on a whim, and am so far *very* pleased with my purchase.  Jimmy Eat World&#8217;s &#8220;Futures&#8221; is awesome&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/tg\/detail\/-\/B0002ZMIH6\/qid=1099764455\/sr=8-1\/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl15\/002-9772282-9274415?v=glance&amp;s=music&amp;n=507846\">go get it<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In online media news, I downloaded a novel this morning, <a href=\"http:\/\/nickm.com\/implementation\/\">Implementation<\/a>.
