Post-brunch vodka
Since returning from Brazil, blender usage has increased by 10000%
Time for a giant boiling pot of crawfish!
Harvesting chard by flashlight.
The late night coding is having an effect on my early morning coding.
I think this whole going to the gym everyday thing might just work out!
Today’s worm chow: coffee grounds and strawberry greens.
Took wilted beet greens out of the trash, cut them into little pieces, and fed them to the worm farm.
Brunch at Cissi’s features guitar duo playing Super Mario Bros theme!
So much worm juice!!
Party features man playing atari as instrument
Beat the computer at pong!!
Taking a bike ride to dinner, then to a house party where PEEL is playing!
Woke up to find Katie watching Battlestar. Fell asleep watching classic Star Trek.
Drinking vodka and lime.
Off to the gym to do something other than yoga. I am going to be so buff!
Front door open, nice breeze, already been up for 2 hours, time to get some work done.

Very pleased to find frozen acai berries at Whole Foods. Sure, they come in lame “smoothee bars,” but it’s pure and unsweetened. #juiced
Number of times the word “billion” appears on the New York Times homepage: 7
Back in Texas. Obrigado, Brazil! I will miss your juices and your beaches and your bundas!
Here’s a video of me feeding a family of monkeys! http://flickr.com/photos/benbrown/3284277423/
Just got back from samba in a tiny shack on the beach! Orange, honey and cinnamon cachaca shots!
Giant frog on the ceiling!!!
A family of tiny monkeys just visited our house! Each one visited me and took a little piece of banana from my hand!
I surfed today! I am so proud of myself.
The one downside of our stay here in Floripa: my entire body is a massive sunburn covered in mosquito bites.
Just uploaded some videos of Florianopolis. http://flickr.com/photos/benbrown
Drank a seriously ridiculous amount of Russian vodka and cachaça last night, but I’m the first one up and ready to go!
Using Skype from the other side of the world… to listen to hold music!
House crashing a giant modern house in the rainforest overlooking the lake, hoping to use the Wifi for a Skype call.
Walked through the forest, across the dunes, to the beach. Swam in the ocean. Drank vodka. Swam some more.
Something outside our hotel is making a “SQUEEE! SQUEEE!” sound - either a confused tropical night bird, or a very, very large mosquito.
Goooooood morning Brazil! Oh wait, it’s noon.
It’s 3am in Brazil and we just got back from a house party where they played nothing but 80s hits from the US.
Wow, Brazilian currency really keeps it real! REAL! Get it? REAL!
