Carmageddon Update

So it turns out there were actually very few cars on the road over the weekend... no mass chaos, no miles-long traffic jams, just fairly empty roads.

I'm debating venturing out during the Carmageddon v2.0 next year, since it would be a great time to drive places that usually take forever to get to. I just don't know if everyone else will have the same idea...

Carmageddon

So this is the weekend that the freeway near my house shuts down, leading to what is projected to be massive amounts of traffic. I've come up with a weekend plan of stuff to do that does not require driving. (Unfortunately Harry Potter is not on the list, but maybe we'll venture out if the traffic isn't that bad).

1. Haircut at a place within walking distance -- my bangs are way too long.

2. Mani/pedi at a place within walking distance (with a groupon, of course).

3. Make paneer tikka masala (contingent on walking to the grocery store or farmers market to get bell peppers).

4. Clean -- I still haven't unpacked from my trip to SF.

5. Watch XMen.

6. Read my magazines and throw away the old ones.

7. I think that's it... hopefully I don't get bored.
