Besides taking today off of the scholarly project/thesis, I worked on a few projects around the house, went on a long walk with T and the pups on the greenway, and watched "The Social Network." T and I also tried out the new Iraqi restaurant in town. I had the chicken and rice entrée. The chicken was excellent, but the rice was very... different. So nothing against the cuisine, just don't know if it was for me. I'd maybe rate it a B- (for me of course) for food-related reasons - the menu was really small (start-up restaurant so I understand), but I'd don't know what I'd order if I went again. I don't particularly care for gyros (their primary focus) and all the other entrées had the rice and/or lamb, so my options are very, severely limited... Guess you'll have to try it and make your own opinion. I'd probably give it one more go.

Another exciting first for today - got to shower in our new shower downstairs! It was such a change from the 3x3 upstairs! Hurray!
