Thought I did good and had Ricky's bday gift in the bag early this year, which is not until July. Well, just this week he talked about buying flight lessons....SOOOO.....before I lost credit in this awesome idea, I had to give him his gift. And yes, he loved it! So Happy Friggin' Birthday Ricky! :-)

A perfect warm, sunny day to drive the convertible with the top down! Love this weather! 

And so does Dakota...took her to the dog park, where she ran and played ball for a good...10 mins! yeah...10 mins and she was pooped. Looks like we need to exercise this chick a little more! She had no interest in the other dogs, all she wanted was the ball!

Cooked dinner at home...and then a conversation on life and career began, and we thought....this conversation needs to be over a cocktail. So....E-bar we went! That life conversation got more detailed, interesting and soooo awesome! :-) I am now moving to London!

Tried a new restaurant today with my coworker, Hilary. It' a Mediterranean affair (as said on their website) in Potrero Hilled called Pera. I highly recommend trying this place out. I ordered Pera Talas Boregi, which is grilled smoked chicken breast rolled in a phillo dough with vegetables. Served over coconut curry sauce, garnished with green apple and currants.  Yeah.....basically just delicious!

Mom hosted a Sunday family lunch with Corn Beef and Cabbage! My sweet, sweet, funny little cousin Analisa here. Her parents dropped her off because they told her they had to go to Costco, and she asks "Cost....co?????" Apparently, she is not a fan. So she was able to spend time with the cousins.

Thursday, March 17, 2011 ~~~~~ St. Patty's Day!!!

This was an eventful evening...prior to today, I did not want to go out, just wanted to stay in and enjoy St. Patty's at home. Then work went, 5 o'clock came, and all I wanted was some green beer! By 9, able to finally get out and hit the town! At a brewery for a total of about 5 mins....that came and went FAST, and so Ricky and I found ourselves at Friday's. Finally got a glass of beer...but not green beer...Friday's is not a very Irish-spirited restaurant!

PHEW!!!! After a long Saturday going back and forth from BMW Fremont to Firestone and back to BMW Fremont, finally got my car back today with no problems!! It started with just wanting a simple oil change and ended up being a complete oil leak disaster that good ol' Firestone caused with my last oil change. And to make it even better....because of the rude customer service I received earlier in the week at BMW Fremont they only charged me for parts...so a normal $450 oil change only cost me $118!!! Thank you Mr. General Manager and Ricky! :-)

Earlier in the day had a fun lunch with Barry and Janie, then in the evening Ricky and I went to the Warriors vs Timberwolves game. Warriors win...whoo hooo!!! Club level access, VIP Valet Parking (which just means, free parking and park yourself) and access to the Courtside Club Lounge.After the game, went to the lounge and saw the groupies trying to get all the basketball players numbers.

Spent the evening deciding how I am going to spend my winnings once I hit the 172 million dollar lotto!!!! Build my wine bar....by a few houses, give my family a portion (we'll discuss amounts on Tuesday), build the largest walk-in closet imaginable, hire a personal stylist to re-do my entire wardrobe.... oh the possibilities are endless....

Being that today is not only Fat Tuesday but also my dear friend Erica's birthday, I felt it necessary to indulge in happy hour. Met Ricky at Sino's on Santana Row. Although we could not celebrate with Erica, we did have a cocktail in her honor! Cheers Erica...Happy Birthday!
