Restaurant: Natachee's Supper N' Punch

3622 Main Street
Houston, TX 77002

Last week, wonder woman and i were texting back and forth all day. As I continued texting with her even when i got home from work, i thot about asking her if she wanted to go eat. But then, the tired in me set in and all i really wanted to do was pick up some to-go so that we could eat while watching tv. I honestly feel like at times big poppa and i are an anomaly. Everybody we know are readers and barely watch tv. Big poppa and I? Complete opposite of that. Well. At least we have each other to be different with. Haha. Okay back to my story. So we decide to pick up food at the newly renovated Luby's by our hood. As we are waiting for our food, I see this familiar asian girl snaking through the dine-in line. I'm sure you know where this is going. I go over to wonder woman to say wassup! Great minds right? Happy late birthday by the way friend. Many months ago, as the TNOX trio planned their quarterly dinner date, guess what the two great minds both purchased? Dining coupons to Natachee's Supper N' Punch. We used her coupon. The food there was so unsignificant that i watched day by day as my own coupon was nearing it's expiration date. I just let it expire. The food was THAT underwhelming that i didn't care to go back. The only reason why i would go back is cos kids eat free and their food comes out in these cool old school lunch boxes.

Musik Mundi: Martin Solveig feat Dragonette

Martin Solveig feat Dragonette
Album: Hello Single (2010)
Song: Hello

This weekend, I got my second any bite in just a week. And then first thing monday morning I got stuck having to listen this Chris March look alike IT guy tell me his whole life story. I stood there for forty minutes. At first i felt sorry for the guy. Then parts of his story started creeping me out. Like goosebumps. Hair standing on end. I hope i don't have a stalker on my hands. Then i started getting kinda annoyed that he thot his life was so interesting that i wanted to stand there and listen for FORTY minutes?!? He kept cracking himself up and his laugh was horribly loud and not endearing at all. I just stared at him not laughing back. I'm too nice but not really. Does that make sense? I needed to listen to something that would make me feel less grouchy. This song works. Did not know it was Dragonette singing on this song until baby sistar kept asking me to get the song for her. Changing topics. Convo regarding my future activity:

me: so guess who is going to the Jay-Z concert

middle sistar: you listen to hip hop?

me: i know like one song

middle sister: what? empire state of mind?

me: haha ... that's right!

Trippin': Washington D.C. - Lincoln Memorial

The Lincoln Memorial is a really amazing building. It's structures like this that make me wish Houston had more notable landmarks. Even the Gandhi statue in the museum district is a bit disappointing. True story. Big poppa and I were walking around the garden next to the museum of natural science here in houston. We had some time to kill before this IMAX movie that i wanted to watch started. As we were sitting at one of the benches, i noticed that there were a lot of indian families everywhere. Like enough for me to wonder why there were so many indian families around. So then big poppa and i get up and take a stroll and we see this statue up ahead. We get closer and it's Gandhi. And i'm like oooohhhhhh. Makes sense now.

Restaurant: Aka Sushi

2390 West Alabama St
Houston, TX 77098

Oh what glorious weather we've been having! Too bad I've wasted it by staying indoors instead of getting my lazy butt into outdoorsy active mode. I love the breeze but can't help but think that it must not be helping to stop these wild fires. Anyhoo. Is it safe to say that sushi is sushi? Maybe not always. It's normal to think that sushi should be cheaper. But since the human species seem to have problems with over-fishing, maybe it's better that sushi is more expensive. Make it less accessible. I'm not really going anywhere with this except for the fact that i've only eaten at aka during their happy hour times, whether regular or reverse. Shame on me? I guess the food here is good. Sushi is sushi. I like their chicken wings! Haha. Some things will never change. The happy hour drinks i ordered were super watered down. I wouldn't order drinks again. I heard that they make them a bit stiffer if you order straight from the bar.

Here's two texts from mascara which totally made my day:

1st text: I finally had the guts to watch THE COVE. It's so sad and made me not want to take mylinh to seaworld.

2nd text: I also just watched TAPPED and i'm banning bottled water as well.
