Body Worlds

WOW. That exhibit is way cool. WAY cool.

I learned where the nerves to the-big-toe-and-the-next-two-toes and the-pinky-toe-and-its-neighbor diverge. Well, I think I got it, anyway. (Some of these specimens aren't in perfect condition any more. I suspect the nervous system is particularly fragile.) The anatomy textbook I snuck a good long look at in my doctor's office couldn't explain that one to me. That alone was worth the price of admission.

And yes, I did take a good long look at the horse. :)

I was utterly unprepared for the enormously long line, the parking lots within several city blocks all being full, and just generally the annoyingness of trying to drive in a city. I remember now why I avoid cities.

I was very pleased to go with iridium, who is just as geeked-out about this sort of thing as I am. (Arguably way more.) iridium, it was great to spend the afternoon and evening with you! And plymouth, it was great to get to see you for dinner!

Yummy dinner at a place called, I think, Skewed Asqew. Very dry couscous; everything else tasty.

My scooter is wonderful. I could found a new religion based on this level of wonderfulness. I could hear angel choirs singing, it was that good.

I'm-a-gonna spend a bunch of time digesting that new mental tidbit on where those foot nerves go. :)

Sleep time now.

The eatery in question is Asqew Grill (http://www.asqewgrill.com/). Looks like it's a mini-chain with locations in SF and Emeryville.

And it was fabulous to see you and iridium too...

Asqew! Thanks. (Edited.)
