The glamour: Macaroni with Hebrew National knockworst (they're thicker than the hotdogs, but that's the only difference I'm aware of), faux parsley-pesto, and parmesan cheese. Oh, and ice cream.

Lots of book-plotting today

I just need to figure out some more with the werewolf and the therapist, and then I think I've got most of the major plot points. We'll find out as I'm writing it exactly how many people die.

I am an incredibly huge dork

I spent something like an hour (oh, probably longer) trying to identify a stretch of freeway used for the freeway chase scene in Matrix Reloaded, based on one of the signs that had three streets marked on it: Whipple, Woodside, and Marsh Rd. You'll find that sign in Redwood City, on the Bayshore Freeway, also known as CA-101.

I am SUCH a HUGE dork.

And there's another sign with Paterson Pass and Cumberland Rd on it that I tried to look up as well, but haven't had as much luck. There's a Cumberland Rd in Burlingame near the same freeway, but it's a surface street, neither it nor Patterson Pass Rd (Livermore, CA) seem to hook up to their respective freeways.

Why did I do this? Because I'm a dork whose seen all three movies many, many times.
