Today (okay, well, since its now the a.m., yesterday) was my honey's birthday. We both took the day off, slept in, made french toast, took a long walk around our neighborhood under a beautiful blue sky, and went to all the places he loves to go to. Comic books, shiny things, fish tacos -- they were all had in abundance. So nice to spend a whole day together without pesky interruptions (like work!) and worries like chores or bills.

So many many Tauruses! And birthdays on the same day even. My man's coworker, his coworker's girlfriend's roommate, our old friend Joseph: all of their birthdays are on May 11. Why so many Tauruses? My theory swirls around all those summer weddings. Our friend Alison also swears by New Year's drunkenness as the reason for so many September babies. Makes sense to me.

We just got back from going out with friends in San Francisco to celebrate the Casual-T in a more social arena. We had the most delectable Indian food at Dosa. Did you know India made great wines? Me neither. We had Sula Vineyards chenin blanc -- probably the best accompaniment for the spicy flavors of Southern Indian cuisine ever. Highly recommended.
