Day 329: Soy Sauce Food 4 Less Fail

 

November 25th, 2011Today, the most hilarious thing happened at Food4less, but first here’s a summary of my day. I woke up, had some Pho for breakfast and relaxed in the living room for a bit. Bee-John picked me up so that we could go to another Tofu House in Cerritos. It really wasn’t that great. For starters, the outside of the restaurant had a “B” rating. Now, I don’t think I’ve ever eaten at a B-rated estabishment before. Shrug. The meat wasn’t that good, and the soup was lacking vegetables within it as the one in La Jolla has. SAD FACE! We went to BeeJohn’s place afterwards to deliver leftovers, where Bee-John’s mom pestered him to fix some weird blender mechanism. Bee-John went ahead to his dad’s auto-shop to deliver the said mechanism, where he got into a distracting conversation with his Uncle in Farsi for 30 minutes. I stood there awkwardly until his uncle the businessman gave me his card for Pearl Dentistry. Shrug. We went to wander Target for a bit before going to Volcano Tea afterwards where I snapped my delicious picture of the day. I went home, eventually ate dinner, watched a ton of How I Met Your Mother, read a ton of random online things, and read some Atlas Shrugged. Hopefully I do something more exciting tomorrow before I leave.

Here’s the funny story: My mom, dad, and sister took me to Food4Less. While there I got some stuff, which included Soy Sauce. I put it on the cart, but the bottle was too thin, and subsequently fell through the crack and crashed on the floor right when we were about to check out. The bottle burst, bounced up, splashed Soy Sauce all over my mom’s clothes, and her eyes, and made the cashier laugh. I ran desperately to get another bottle to ultimately save the day (after damaging it to begin with).

“The Mousetrap,” a murder-mystery written by the novelist and playwright Agatha Christie, opens at the Ambassadors Theatre in London. The crowd-pleasing whodunit would go on to become the longest continuously running play in history, with more than 10 million people to date attending its more than 20,000 performances in London’s West End. When “The Mousetrap” premiered in 1952, Winston Churchill was British prime minister, Joseph Stalin was Soviet ruler, and Dwight D. Eisenhower was president-elect. Christie, already a hugely successful English mystery novelist, originally wrote the drama for Queen Mary, wife of the late King George V. Initially called “Three Blind Mice,” it debuted as a 30-minute radio play on the queen’s 80th birthday in 1947. Christie later extended the play and renamed it “The Mousetrap”—a reference to the play-within-a-play performed in William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.” ERM WHAT.

The latest star to be taking tentative steps to jump out of television is Glee’s Lea Michele. She’s landed a part in the Pretty Woman director Garry Marshall’s ensemble drama New Year’s Eve. Marshall’s romantic drama takes place in New York at the end of the year, when resolutions are being made and love is being lost and found. The cast includes Robert De Niro, Ashton Kutcher, Hilary Swank, Katherine Heigl, Sarah Jessica Parker and Zac Efron. The joke going around is that this is the movie that has every celebrity in the world appearing. YAY. GLEE!
