4:59 p.m. Put on a Best

5:14 p.m. Watched the 7 Minutes of Terror video and noted
that it was only 5 minutes long.
5:19 p.m. Spent 20
minutes thinking about what happened to the missing 2 minutes. Got a headache.
5:59 p.m. Poured myself a
tumblr of rd wine.
5:25 p.m. Calculated my
age in Martian years (687 Earth Days=1 Martian Year) Damn, I’m still older than
Julie.
6:00 p.m. Downloaded one too
many Mission to Mars videos and was forced to clear my cache…which is French for money...right?
6:14 p.m. Stared at the
word “habitability” so long that it caused my pupils to simultaneously dilate
and cross.
7:14 p.m. Searched for Mars
Curiosity on Twitter but ended up on a Men are from Mars support group site.
7:42 p.m. Checked the
time app on my new Kickstarter-funded hi-tech, wi-fi watch. Still have a little time before landing.

Wondered what grows locally in Mars.
8:14 p.m. Decided
to bro down and crush some code.*
(* I have no idea what
that line means)
9:00 p.m. Pre-ordered a
Berlitz language CD on how to speak Martian. Narrated by Gilbert Gottfried

10:15 p.m. Decided,
instead, to create an algorithm that would determine which Olympic gold medal
athletes will end up on Dances with the Stars.
10:30 p.m. Watched the
landing while listening to music on Spotify and not posting it on Facebook.
10:31 p.m. Texted Julie: OMG
WTF we should write a blog about this epic event.
10:45 p.m. Fell asleep
and dreamed that Ronald Mcdonald and The Kentucky Fried Chicken Colonel got
married at a Chick Fil A. Woke up in a
cold vegan sweat.
