Non-Labor day weekend...

Mia i love those boots! So, friday, went to an amazing haitian dance class and then out to see a great Afro--funk/soul/classic rock band called ORogone. (i think that's how you spell it--they're gonna play at Bumpershoot, so Mia, you should go check 'm) I was out with two other brown curly haired ladies, so dancing was super fun with lots of hair flying around.

Saturday there was a master dance teacher in town teaching west african. He is always very diva-esk and moody with the drummers if they mess up even once! Tony and I went home and cleaned the house instead of going to the second class....that is a new bonding activity of ours :)
Finally got a big jute rug too, so poor pooka doesn't have to walk so tiff on the slippery pergo floor. Ouch!

Saturday night we went to Age's (pronounced o-ah) for a house warming/potluck. Poor guy, he is 83 and had to move out of the house he lived in for 15 years with all his stuff and couldn'tfind a new house for like two months, so he was couch surfing. But now he and two other drummers got a great place, and we raged dununs until around 10:30 and hung out with friends and barbecued. I love playing drums!

So sunday, we slept in, went out for breakfast at this little place with the best pancakes in the world (i don't even like pancakes!, but these are great) and took pooka to the beach, where practically every family from San Jose with a kid under 5 was for the day. So cute! all these little kids, mostly latino and vietnamese, running around like the circus. I laughed alot. When people see pooka, they just get the biggest smile on their face, because she smiles at them. It is the funniest thing to watch.....what a flirt!

So, today, i was going to go buy a bed off craigslist, but then realized i need to rent a small uhaul to get it, and.....yeah, um, it's Labor day , remember Brie? So, no Uhaul. No bed either. At least not until tomorrow. Other than that, started a Detox for this week, and hung out reading/studying, and sunbathing on the deck with pooka.

XOXOXOX
