  1. Furthermore, my chief complaint regarding podcasts is that frequently, specifically with stories, the people doing the readings are subpar.
  2. However, I discovered lots of content available in audio that isn't available in writing. Namely, lengthy, personal interviews with authors.
  3. To be clear, even though I now listen to podcasts, it doesn't mean I prefer it. I read very fast and would rather read over listen any day.
  4. I just discovered podcasts. Don't laugh at me.
  5. Last month, I spent 77.7 hours on the phone. Which is 3.2375 days. Can you tell that I'm in a long distance relationship?
  6. Just joined Foursquare. Bring it, Hong Kong.
  7. I like the heavy weight of Hong Kong coins. I also derive great pleasure from paying for a taxi ride entirely with change.
  8. John is eating his salsa with a fork.
  9. And just like a small town, the waitress can only speak basic English. Except here, she wears a badge that says "I speak basic English." Ha.
  10. Feels like we are in a small town knock-off of IHOP. Except the family behind us is speaking rapidly in Chinese.
  11. OMG, THESE ARE THE BEST BISCUITS AND GRAVY EVER. HANDS-DOWN. NO CONTEST. COME TO BEIJING FOR THE BISCUITS AND GRAVY. JUST ORDERED SECONDS.
  12. Sitting at Grandma's Kitchen in Beijing. We just ordered biscuits and gravy, waffles, scrambled eggs, and a breakfast taco. America FTW.
  13. As of this week, my longtime tailor in China is also Obama's tailor. Holy awesome.
  14. Drinking a soy latte and having a bowl of pumpkin soup at Timezone 8 in 798 District. With John!!
  15. I'm not too concerned with reading material for long train or bus rides. I enjoy looking out the window. (Planes are a different story.)
  16. My best friend in the whole world just randomly woke up in the middle of the night and called me to talk. I treasure these conversations.
  17. I am so excited to see my boyfriend tonight. I am so NOT excited about the subzero temperatures in Beijing. It's a Siberian winter there.
  18. I always miss New York at this time of year. There is nothing quite like experiencing the holiday season in the city. It's just magical.
  19. My boss has Xobni, listens to Spotify, and watches football on Justin.tv. He has an iMac at home and a jailbroken iPhone. He is teh awesome.
  20. Red Bull reeks of college. Ew.
