Slower day today. Dad was cleaning the ice cream machine at work so I took my brother out to get some pho for breakfast. He had a bowl of beef pho and I had some bun bo hue, though I think they added more chili oil this time as it seemed a little spicier than normal. But it was really quite delicious. He went to Goodwill and I waited in the car and swung by the nearby Caffino Cup hole in the wall for some iced Vietnamese coffee (very very good), while my brother got a chocolate frappe / slushie. We headed back home, then at 1, I dropped him off at work, and swung by the library to check out some books. The rest of the day gets kind of goopy after that ... I did get replies from my professors about bringing my brother along, but I miscalculated his Spring break, as it was actually next week and not this week. Ay yai yai. But I think it will be fine, if he shows up for the third or fourth day of courses and not the first or second day. Didn't add to the slipbox, though I did follow up with Yung, and I also finally finally vacuumed and cleaned out my desk cabinet. A real trip down memory lane! Been using sunscreen on my hands these past couple of days ... cue obligatory sunscreen smears on my steering wheel but from the way my skin looks I'd say it's worth it. I also found $55 worth of Starbucks gift cards and potentially $200 in regular Visa Vanilla cards in my drawer -- very nice. Have to wake up early, around 7:00, tomorrow since my American politics class starts at 8:30. Weather was a little chilly today but the sunlight is gaining more "density", it is becoming brighter.
