SPORTS!!! And Halloweek!

The other day I found cat ears from a Halloween costume of four years past. And I've been wearing them since! I feel like I'd like to wear them every day.. not just during the week of Halloween.. and I especially like wearing them at work. =)

Anyway, tonight I watched the Sharks game with Alex and it went into overtime AND THEN IT WENT INTO A SHOOT OUT!!! And we won in the 6th round!!! YEAH! It was so f'ing exciting that I seriously couldn't breathe. And during the breaks we switched back to the Warriors game, which was also a pretty good game - except the Warriors lost by 1 in the end. Oy vey! But I got to see Jackson score a few points - my fave! That was three hours of professional sporting goodness. WOOT.

Crustacean & Costumes

Tonight I had one of the BEST DINNERS EVER! Julian and I were browsing Urban Spoon (LOL) and came across CRUSTACEAN! We both had heard lots about the place, so we decided to go. The food was so delicious... we had Crab Puffs, Grilled Calamari, Roasted Crab, and Saigon Beef. Everything was good, even the garlic rice and Bellini Martinis! I don't usually eat crab because it requires so much effort, but this was worth it. And the bibs DEFINITELY came in handy! I can't believe we both hadn't been before, it was such a treat! We noticed that the famous neon crab sign above the elevator was dying =( and we reminisced seeing that sign as children... we're getting old. We actually did a lot of reminiscing over dinner, and I had a really awesome time catching up. The service was great, and it was much more dressy than I had anticipated - luckily we were well-dressed. Good food, good service, and great company. I had so much fun! This is now one of my fave restaurants, and I rarely LOVE restaurants.

Later on at night I was summoned for the brainstorming of Halloween costumes, and when I got downstairs Dom & B were wearing some ridiculous children-sized duck and fireman Walmart costumes - IT WAS HILARIOUS!!! I've decided to be a sailor for Halloween, and together with V (and some others hopefully) we can do the Village People theme.

Mr. Arai, Butterfly & Ivy Madness

Love this song:

Yesterday, the last descendant of the Arai family came by to visit our shop!! He is definitely a celebrity in the motorcycle industry - Arai being a top helmet producer, and the only which is still family-owned. Cool!

At night I went to Butterfly with V and Dom for Corinna's birthday. When we got there, the line was being held because they had "hit capacity". They distributed flyers for another party nearby, and I suspect it was a cunning ploy to draw support for their secondary event. We got in 30 minutes later. Corinna had a really good time, as did we.

Today I went to eat egg noodles with Dom & B in TL, and then V and I went shopping for FOUR HOURS! We were in and out of craft stores piecing together Halloween costumes. Her Indian (the feather kind) costume will be great. I, on the other hand, am struggling with my Poison Ivy costume because my plans have been foiled by the limited capabilities of fabric dye. My long green gloves and a kelly green corset are out the window! I'm out of ideas.
