    Century egg

    For lunch today we had mapo tofu, rice noodles, pork floss, and century eggs. I’d never eaten a century egg before. It looked horrible. But everybody else was taking them, so I decided to be brave. My colleague Nic said that they just taste like normal hardboiled eggs. So I closed my eyes and tried it. And he’s right! It just tasted like a normal egg, albeit one with a slightly weird texture. But man, they look unnatural. I kind of can’t stop thinking about it.

    @JennaPrice Did you get any volunteers for the app job yet? I’ve just mentioned it to my colleague @nicwinton, who has contacts as well.

    @JennaPrice How many attendees will be it? If it’s < 200, you can use this for free! https://t.co/lUb5mY091W

    @JennaPrice Ooh! @eventboardapp could be good, and your first event is free! http://t.co/DPe0kw1qQj

    I had The Smiths stuck in my head on loop ALL DAY. I can’t get rid of it. Is this a sign of mental illness? Is T.Swift the solution?

    Re that last RT: “Goth Winklevoss” is hilarious and I love it.
