Why does Styx have such ‘tude about technology? In one line they’re saying ” Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto / For doing the jobs that nobody wants to / And thank you very much, Mr. Roboto / For helping me escape just when I needed to” and the next thing you know they’re saying “The problem’s plain to see / Too much technology.”

Doesn’t sound like such a problem to me, Mr. Styx.

I am delighted about the sushi place that opened right downstairs from my office.  I’m not supposed to eat raw fish while preg (although that’s suspect—Japanese women do it at all the time and Japanese people are better than us in most ways).  Fortunately, the place has some non-raw options beyond boring California rolls.  My current favorite is the shrimp tempura roll.  Their miso soup is also really good and only $1 USD.  I look forward to a post-pregnancy visit when I can stuff my face with sashimi.  Yum yum.

It looks like it’s going to be a gorgeous weekend, which is nice because my parents are having their annual Labor Day weekend patio party.  My dad, who is a homebrewer, provides interesting beers for the occasion.  I plan to smell them.  I think it’s rained the last couple of years, which put a damper on attendance and joviality.

I have a date tonight, dinner and drinks (artisanal root beer for me, I’m guessing) with this cute guy.  I’ll dish about it tomorrow.
