Yesterday was Katherine Maslyn's birthday. She and her housemate Amelia Lin invited Brohaus over to Girlhouse for board games. Much fun was had - we (Robby, Chuan, Dustin, Jeffrey, Arun, and myself) listened to Simon and Garfunkel's best hits album on a real working turntable, looked at Dustin's ridiculous Starcraft2 team page, went into Mountain View for bubble tea (and ran into Kat Busch while we were there), played a new board game called 7 Wonders (Amelia won), ate cake, and generally just sat around chatting for a while about all manner of things until 1am.

Tonight, we plan to go to a meetup on rationality and human biases organized by followers of Less Wrong, a blog written by the same person who wrote of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, which is both absolutely hilarious and wildly informative. Hopefully the meetup will be similar.
