Things To Do This Week.

Bring Me Two Pina Coladas.

Apple had its big “event” last week, where, best we could tell, it announced a bunch of new products that look and function just like its existing products at a huge jump in price. Still, because it's Apple, they earned plenty of attention from the news.

What people haven't been talking enough about is the fact that taco emojis are finally coming to iPhone when the iOS 9.1 update is released later this year. Even better? Unicorn and middle finger emojis will also be included in the update. And a burrito, too.

But there's still a little bit of a wait left until you can let people know how you really feel without using any actual words. And because we wholeheartedly subscribe to the Watched Pot Never Boils theory, we'd recommend taking our lead and finding a bunch of things to keep you nice and distracted in the meantime.

To that end, we've got your next seven days covered.
