Sorry to those I haven't written or called back.

Friday night we hit the Chapter House for a coupla beers then headed to a french bistro called Dijon. It was 9pm and they asked if we had reservations. Hello??? This is fucking Ithaca. So we went off to ZaZa's Cucina and they were equally packed, but had a table for three. We realized later that it was Ithaca College commencement weekend. The service was poor, but the papardelle and mushrooms was amazing (K - like Mappamondo). We then went bowling, and I kicked everyone's ass the second game.

On Saturday Dan and I went to a town called Watkins Glen to walk the gorge trail. This town sits on Seneca Lake. It was a nice walk, but had tons of stairs. At some point I thought I would collapse. We had a lovely drive throught Central/Western New York covering WG as well as Corning and Elmira. There is no shortage of mobile homes.

We hit a TJ Maxx in Elmira (yes, we're addicted) to buy rugs for our new apartment. We hit the jackpot and walked out with three beautiful hand woven rugs - one for the bedroom, one for me office and one for the library. We also walked out with two Cross pens, two Calloway golf polos, 1 black t-shirt, 1 turquoise t-shirt, 1navy blue absolutley adorable dress, 1 new pet bed, 1 package of Ralph Lauren undershirts, 1 pair of men's Rockport flip flops, 1 White Gardenia pillar candle, and a nike swimsuit in gray.

Sunday I woke up with aches and pains from the walk and major congestion. Allergies. I popped a Tavist and some tension headached Exedrin and wound up sleeping for most of the day. I thought someone had slipped me a mickey. Turns out the Tavist does cause drowsiness.

Yesterday was Dan's 30th birthday. I cut out of work a bit early and we ran some errands together. We hit Kyushu for sushi with Rick and Emily and had a cake from Purity for dessert. It was a nice evening.

I'm trying to stay awake today. Signing off.
