Weekend updates

Last Saturday the usual, BBQ with friends: Erika & her family and chi Nga and her daughters- Thi and Thao, then Robin, Thuy, and Jaynie stopped by later, where we sat in my backyard drinking, eating and laughing. We moved indoors to watch Aprils Shower. Completely satisfying. On Sunday, after picking up Ethan and Vincent, we drove into the city to watch the Giants vs the Cinn Reds play. We arrived after the first inning and the score was already 6-0, Giants losing. It was not meant to be, but we had a grand time despite the loss. E and V were allowed to run the bases after the game; they also received complimentary wooden bats. For pre-dinner snack we went to Ghiradelli square for a hot fudge sundae before heading back to Mtn View for dinner.

This week at work is GMP followed by a dinner date with Jaynie. I wonder if we are dating or just hanging out as friends. I can't tell with her. I love her wit and sense of humor, but its hard reading her. If we were dating we would kiss goodnite, but we hug and thats the extent of it. Not sure what to make of it. Girls are soooo complicated. anyhoo I started my own facebook page, complete with pix and videos. I now officially have three friends on it: one is from high school, someone I had a total crush on, which really never went away:) Jaynie is on there, the blonde girl; Mandy is my Chinese friend/Sans friend more than mine and finally Denise, blonde turned dark, wife of Dakota.

This weekend planning on finishing some house projects, like the door, re-do corner of the yard, and plant brocoli. On Sat nite we (Robin, Thuy, my sister and her bf) are going up to Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, and Sunday to Napa Valley for biking, auction, and wine tasting. Sounds like a fun filled weekend!

My lil dotsie


My lil dotsie when he was about 8weeks old. Now he is turning 2 years old. What a character he is. We play hide-n-seek, fetch, tug-a-war, chase, and bite my hands. Although he hasn't learn any new tricks he does understand, "check the window." I am trying to train him to stop barking randomly and actually look outside to see if anyone is there before he barks. This tactic works better than spraying water at the poor dog. He understands that when he checks the window and sees no one he stops barking; i also call him a "dork" and pats his head. Now he sits at the window like a cat, patrolling the neighborhood. He still barks but much more sensibly.
