I visited a tea factory today. Besides being lots of fun, I also got to purchase some excellent Orange pekoe!

Some relatives are visiting from the States later this month, which has allowed me to order a whole bunch of seeds that I'm planning to play around with!
I'm dubious about how successful some of the less heat-tolerant varieties will end up being, but let's worry about that when the time comes.

A close friend and I have an established tradition: Every birthday, one of us travels to the other's city. We then spend 2 days eating amazing food, shopping for absurd art, buying books, and generally just having a blast together.
It's her birthday tomorrow, so I'm on a bus :)

Yesterday, I got a whisper from a Druid thanking me for an in-game item that I hadn't sent them.
It turned out to be a case of mistaken identity, but they mentioned that someone had mailed them an in-game drink for their birthday, so I was sure to wish them.
Today, I got this in the mail ;_;

The National Disaster Management Authority just sent this warning out throughout the region.
While I'm located in a safe area, the videos coming from other parts of the twin cities is horrible.
