Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and welcome to 2007.

The apartment is pretty much done at this point. I feel kinda empty having been occupied with apartment furnishing and decor matters for so long that I don’t really know what to do with all my free time now. I find myself looking for random stuff to buy that I don’t really need to fill that void. I love how I just have that innate consumer behavior.

The biggest hurdle of moving out has been finding cheap food. Fast food’s always an option but it’s so bleh. I’ve been making a map of places to eat in the Irvine area using CommunityWalk based on personal knowledge and a couple of OC foodblogs I frequent (Monster Munching and Chubbypanda). If anyone has any recommendations I’m open to it.

I tried the carne asada fries at Taco Spot in Eagle Rock, located across from Oinkster. They paled in comparison to the ones from Alerto’s. I’ve still yet to find a decent place in LA for carne asada fries.

I made a New Year’s resolution to read at least two books a month. It should probably be more writing related, but I gotta start somewhere.

• Mysterious samurai saves Police in UK. Samurai? Sounds more like a ninja to me.

• Going to the Mattresses. I recently purchased a mattress and it felt like the biggest scam ever.
