Here is a video of Roscoe working on his circus dog tricks. Days when I’m at home all day, I have to find ways to entertain myself. Consider this my entertainment.

Packing is the worst.
I’m going away for the long weekend (yay!) for my friend Elizabeth’s bachelorette party (double yay!) but packing a carry-on for a weekend where I’m not sure exactly what we’re doing is HARD. Packing (smartly and concisely) is the worst.

Jeff and I were supposed to grill up some elk tenderloins that Meg brought me back from Wyoming. She had told us to wrap them in bacon first because they’re so lean. We were so excited that we were planning a big meal out of it. I have red potatoes roasting in the oven and bought broccoli to steam. Then I realized I forgot to buy bacon. Oops. We can’t waste the delicious elk...

Lao Wang
I’m getting dumplings tonight. Not just dumplings, but some of the BEST dumplings in the world. I’m salivating just thinking about the dumplings.
My BFF Meg is meeting me at this tiny place called Lao Wang that is dumplings paradise. It’s impossibly inconvenient to get to, is located in a Korean strip center between a nail salon and a dispensary, and the entire restaurant is...

and then we’re going to see local pop-funk band Bop Skizzum play at Moe’s BBQ.
I’m excited. I hope everyone has very safe and fun evenings, whatever you may do to celebrate the...

Things that make me happy about Austin tonight:
1) Driving by the Zilker Tree in my neighborhood. It’s an Austin tradition that I love SO much.
2) UT won the bowl game which means the UT tower is bright orange tonight. Another fun thing to drive by and admire. (P.S.- Hook ‘em Horns!!)
3) Getting to spend some quality time with Elizabeth and Carson. I’ll get to see these two tomorrow also but it was nice getting to...

Seriously though...
Denver really needs to get on the ball with the whole private karaoke room situation. It is one thing that the city is seriously lacking.
In other news, I had a friggin’ blast tonight and really remembered why I miss my Austin friends so much. They’re the greatest people, and private karaoke rooms are always a good time.

Crowdsourcing
I got a new MacBookPro for Xmas and I need to transfer all of my files and programs (Microsoft Office Suite, Photoshop, etc) over. Is it possible to go to the Mac store and have them transfer all of it over for you or do I have to reinstall all of my applications from CD and files from my external hard drive?
(ETA: My old computer is a MacBook too.)
