Double Dinner: Went to Hapa Izakaya and then Benkei Ramen with Steve, Alex, Dez and John. I even spilled a big cup of tea on Steve. His pants were almost all wet, but I didn’t get his crotch this time.
PHOTOS! PHOTOS!
I am so glad the week is over. I have been developing this flu/cold for days, and I can’t wait to cough and blow my nose freely at home. Lots of wonton have already been wrapped. I gotta recover before I get the flu shot.

I went to Oakridge for some grocery just now and everything looked normal there. Lots of happy shoppers. I bet most of them were not aware of what happened this afternoon.

Last year, I went to Atlanta to attend "The Big Nerd Ranch" boot camp. I missed it a lot. I look forward to another trip in which I get to learn a lot, relax and meet some awesome people.
Don Norman fans, check out his lecture on Service Design. I bet he is going to quote the Disney ride lineups again in his next book.
I remember someone at the conference mentioned Don Norman is a grumpy old guy. I think being picky is a must-have personality for usability designers. You can’t call yourself a chef, if your taste buds are dead.

I haven’t. It has been a pretty rough month and now I have a scratchy throat.

I went to Seattle for an usability conference and bought a copy of Vista from the employee store. I spent 10 minutes trying to figure out how to open the DVD box, and I just could not figure it out. I googled for "How to open vista box" and sure enough, there is a page of official instructions on MSDN.
I imagine Apple has already created an ad to make fun of the Vista packaging, but there are not enough people buying the retail version, so no one would get the joke even if they air it.
