The party at Anjelo and Regina's was a lot of fun. It started out a little tense for some of us, because one of Dave's past acquaintances was sitting on the couch. I felt a little awkward, but in the end we were fine. Anjelo's family was super friendly and gracious. Dave made this amazing vegan turkey, or "quail" dish that was a big hit. Regina's sweet marshmallow potato also rocked the party. Everyone had a great time meeting each other and enjoyed the food. We also played a boardgame called Apples to Apples, that started out a little slow but won everyone over once we all "got" the game.
Today I slept in 'til 10:30, was kind of happy about that. Woke up and booked the tickets to Seattle. Checked work emails and answered a few. It was a slow start. The gym was not busy at all. Came back and made myself some salad. Caretas and Eduardo gave me some steak and sausage right off their grill. So I ate some more :) Met up with Sylvia and gave her her present. She was screaming in joy when she saw the camera case. That was a good sign. We went to the mall, which was not very smart. There were so many people! The lines were just crazy. At the same time, it was good to see that people are shopping and spending to save America's economy! After that we went to see my dad's friend so I could get pineapple cakes from him. Could I pack any more driving into this evening? We had dinner with Dave and Jose at Hong Yei, again a great time. Then I took Sylvia back to where she parked her car, all the way back in Rowland Heights. Finally came back home after 10PM. Lots of driving today it seemed! Still, a wonderful day to spend with friends and have laughs with each other.
