date
i had a date with the beautiful and talented alisa last night. grandpa had the boys. we went to dinner in mountain view. indian place called shiva's. was fine. parking was inconvenient on account of the arts festival going on on the main street. so we ambled up and down that for a few minutes before it ended. the nice lady in one of the stalls was selling hand made rock earrings and pendants. judging by the prices she liked them a lot. a few minutes later i decided i liked them a lot too. (here's a
link to her web page.) i discreetly purchased a pair for her birthday. she'll be so surprised. they are russian seraphinite. green, matching her eyes perfectly. look like they have a waterfall frozen in them. nice 3d effect. i can't wait for our next date. i think she'll have to buy a dress to match.
