I slept in pretty late this morning and it was great. Very much needed.

Around one o'clock I went to meet my brother for lunch. We were going to go to a new Asian place but he found out they were closed today so we decided to go to Chipotle. I got there first and the line was past the door and we would have been spending his entire lunch break waiting in line, so we decided to walk over to Jimmy Johns. We talked about his new job, which he seems to be liking but it is his first day, and we talked about school. He is taking seventeen credit hours plus eight hours of firefighting stuff, so that is way too much. I'm good with just the six I'm taking. We probably spent most of the time talking about video games, which is pretty much par for the course because we normally only talk about video games. But it was a good lunch. I don't ever really hang out with my brother and that should change.

After lunch I went over to the old house and spent the rest of my afternoon watching YouTube videos and clicking around the internet. I looked a little bit at school stuff but really I just wanted a day off from that. I miss having constant access to the internet but it is beneficial to my textbook reading. The internet is nice but it is incredibly distracting.

I went home for dinner and watched the original pilot episode of Seinfeld. It is surprising how similar it was to what the show ended up being. So often the pilot looks like an entirely different show but they managed to maintain the same feel with this one. After dinner my mom and I went to put gas in the pickup before returning it to her friend. Then I did some laundry and crocheted a little bit before heading back to the old house to write this and watch some more YouTube videos. I made it below 450 videos on my Watch Later list but it will easily go over 500 as the week progresses. I will never catch up.

I am also currently downloading Portal and Portal 2 to my laptop because earlier today I had the urge to play them. My choice was solidified when I turned on the college radio station and there was a video game music show on that was playing a song from Portal. So now I am waiting for those to finish downloading before I head back to the new house.

This coming week, more MAP testing. No thank you. I also need to work on grad school stuff, hopefully finalize stuff for the small group project and get a start on that. My fingers are crossed for a productive week.
