After spending the past 6 months getting my bearings at a new gig, and _really_ getting into it, I find myself at a place neither here nor there. I think the lack of posts is symptomatic of this general malaise. In any case, here are a few morsels for the mouth of the willing:

• I’m not a coder anymore (was I really ever one?), but that doesn’t mean I can’t be a coder voyeur:
• http://www.hanselman.com/blog/
• http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/
• Spore, spore, spore… 
• It is almost that time of year again: Research season
• Ippudo NY costs $13 per bowl. That just ain’t right.
• Curry-ya is open. I had a plate of chicken curry almost exactly in the same location where I got my hair cut for about 4 years. (Curry-ya now occupies the former location of the excellent Hair Kuwayama)
• Chikalicious is still bumpin’, but the Dessert Club gets most of my attention these days. Tonight was:
• Red velvet cupcake
• S’mores cupcake
• Strawberry cheesecake (in the light style I prefer)
