I have to report that our dogs behaved amazingly...
We were pleasantly shocked. Even Harold. He was sweet as can be.
Sushi tonight with Lauren and Dave.
They are coming over see our house before we go to dinner. Fingers crossed that Harry is not in a biting mood. The little old man is not generally interested in meeting new people, and he will take one of his two teeth to the ankle if necessary.
Dinner was delicious last night. Those fried...
I have been drugged and in bed since Thursday evening due to an awful reaction to my allergy shot. A very low dose, btw, as we have just started this process. So. Apparently I am highly allergic.

I just saw a commercial for "Most Eligible...
It looks like a terrible (terribly true) representation of the DB-ness that is a lot of this city ‘o mine.
My husband's family does not put the "fun" in...
Awwww...
I’m really happy for Japan. They needed a win. A little boost for their country’s morale.
Komali was delish last night. My favorite thing was the watermelon and serrano pepper cocktail. It was refreshing, and not too sweet. Like crushed fruit with a kick. We always have fun with Renee and Greg, and it was great to meet Cristine’s boyfriend. He’s nice and funny. I’m always so glad to see my friends in happy relationships.
We are watching the British Open right now (well, Matt is) and...
