This week I went out to dinner with my pals Eliza, Kristin, and Ernesto (plus his sister, visiting from Los Angeles). We ate at Asti to see The International Tubadores (otherwise known as my pals Chris, Jonathan and Lisa), and had a fantastic time. The food was great - I had a nice seafood risotto (I was craving seafood!) with shrimp, clams, and mussels, then a pear sorbet (with champagne poured on top!) for dessert. We all loved the band - of course, I've seen them play many, many times at lots of parties, but it's even more fun seeing them perform in public. Going out to eat with friends is such a wonderful thing to do - I need to do it more often!

This weekend I watched some anime for the first time in a long while. Truthfully, I was a little burnt out on Japanese since I was studying so hard, so the last thing I wanted to watch was more Japanese. Now that class is over, it's fun to watch (and listen) all over again! I laughed out loud, drank Kirin Ichiban, enjoyed the cute anime girls, and felt like I was welcoming home an old friend. I'm back on the anime wagon, fellow otaku!
My potted magnolia tree has buds all over it, just waiting to look beautiful - I can't wait for them to open! The suspense is killing me!Labels: bands, pals, photos
