Family and family
Happy Birthday Judy!!! Well yesterday, actually, but we got home at a wopping 9:30, and that's past our bed time. David took us all out to the fancy eatery Lex (formerly Aesop's bagels!) and as always, both Dan and I ate more delicious oil and fat than we're accustomed to in our monk-like daily living. We ordered appetizers of clams and cheese-fries (fancy cheese fries, it was a fancy restaurant!) and I ate gnochi pesto, and also all of Dan's brocollini because he said "I can't eat vegetables when I'm eating a steak soaked in bacon!!!" And them some yummy cake that Dan made. And also the drinks. Ha ha, Lent! You lose!!!
When we got home, Rascal was so happy to see us that he didn't want to leave our side and snuggled up right between us in the bed. (He thinks he's people!) I said to Dan, "I know we might have wanted to do OTHER THINGS in the bed this evening, but I don't want to move him now that he's all snuggly like this."
Dan: "It's a hard decisions. I mean, I want to seize any opportunity..."
Leah: "Which is more rare: both of us having sexual desire at the same time, or the dog cuddling at the head of the bed?"
Dan: "Well, he is really cute."
In conclusion, Happy Birthday Judy! It may take you a while to get grand kids out of us, but we've almost taught the dog to drink out of a sippy cup! We have to fill it with runoff from the tuna fish can, but you get used to the smell quickly.
