Weather: still sucking. I’m SICK of rain. I’ll take the pollen at this point.
5th Anniversary: excellent meal at Cafe Lily. We started with mussels in creme sauce, Nick had salmon w/ mango and cherry salsa and I had grilled lamb tenderloin with moroccan spices. We had a big slab of flourless bittersweet chocolate cake with hazelnuts and raspberry sauce for dessert and Chef Anthony sent us over some very expensive Late Harvest Zinfandel to go with it – gratis. Thanks, Anthony and the meal was awesome! :-)
Pets: Poor Stormy. She has lost SO MANY pets since I’ve known her. Her cat went missing yesterday and they found him today as they were walking around their neighborhood looking for him. Apparently a neighbor’s dog killed Minion and the neighbor kindly put him out with the trash despite the frelling COLLAR AND TAGS on him. Fucking asshole ghetto dwellers. I’m so bummed about it. He was a sweet cat and this is her second eaten by a goddam dog. I really don’t like dogs much. This also makes me think that’s what happened to Bernie: some stupid pit bull killed her and the owners just put her out with the trash. Fucking NICE people in the ‘hood, lemme tell you. It’s upsetting that people could be so frelling dispassionate. I’ll tell you one thing, if I ever found out who was responsible for Bernadette’s demise, they’d have a bullet in them – person OR dog. Maybe both. But probably just the dog. Let them have a bit of their own medicine.
And finally, to try to lift the mood (although I’m not in a very good one), a shout out to our parallel universe counterparts in Seattle: packratcomic.com. This girl is a female Nick – just look at the drawing and the humour!! Also: their 5 year anniversary was ALSO April 1st. Same as US! WEIRD!
Now, I’m tired from being upset today and I need sleep. Hopefully tomorrow will be dry with some SUN. Frell.
