2015.02.10 – Workish

I stayed home today so I could take Lauren to the dentist. She had to take a sedative so she needed a driver. I picked her up at work and drove her over. I was hoping the office had WiFi access so I could do some work but they only had a secure connection and didn’t share. Luckily I got a great signal from a nearby fast food place. Thanks Burgerville! I put on my headphones and got to work writing more tests.

Before I knew it Lauren was done. She was a bit numb and really hungry. They said she could eat whenever she felt like it so I took her downtown to DC Vegetarian, her favorite food cart. She wanted a coffee from Stumptown too and there was no line at Voodoo Doughnut so naturally we hit all three places. She was so touristy! Say what you will about their doughnuts being meh but their vegan apple fritters are pretty damned good.

We headed home with our spoils and shared them with the family. I worked from home the rest of the day but stopped right at 17:00 since it was dinner night and we were having lasagne. It’s pretty labor intensive even though we don’t pre-cook the noodles. This also makes it take longer to cook so we had to get it in the oven at a decent hour.

Dinner was awesome! It was the six of us, Jordan’s friend, Tianna, John, Spencer, Alice and Jason. I worked for a little bit more after everyone had gone for the night but didn’t get very far. It’s hard enough to think clearly when I’m not tired.

Today I learned that I can make vegan Florentines.
