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!

Spring has arrived. It's bitter sweet for me. While I love the sun....my nose and eyes do not like those things.......up there! Made a doctor's appointment to get tested next week on those nerd things called...allergies. Come back next week when I am on no meds...Marie might come out!

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!

Tax refund came in...so we went crazy!!! Went out shopping tonight with the intention of buying the Xbox Kinect, but then we realized we are not gamers and that the games themselves are way too pricey. SOOOOOO........we bought a chair!

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.

Very entertaining night watching these folks!  We went to a bar with some friends in Pleasanton where an 80s cover band was playing and old people getting down!

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!
