We're going to Boston for my birthday!!!

My birthday's in June, but we're going to Boston in August, because that's when the Indian and playing the Redsox. Sooo. Hotel room with a private hot tub, dinner at Ming Tsai's restaurant Blue Ginger, possibly a day in new york, and an Indians game at Fenway. Awesomeness.

Also, Dave's restaurant drama is over for now... they finally got approval from the historical commission, so the contracters start on Monday and his bar should open in six weeks (although, since dealoing with contractors, they're thinking more like eight). And that means we should get the FREE apartment in the middle of DOWNTOWN with an amazing kitchen which includes THREE ovens and FOURTEEN burners on two stoves.

Pretty much life is awesome.

Somebody called me the other day from a blocked number while I was at work and I went "a blocked number.. fuck it. Maybe if they leave a voicemail I'll pay them some attention". But alas, no voicemail. And they called back a few seconds later. So I was like.. fuck it. And I answered, and was serenaded with "the times they are a changing...". And Tracy said it wasn't her. And I'm confused.

Happy Valentine's Day!! Dave's sick, so instead of him cooking me my V-day dinner, I'm cooking him chicken soup :)

It's officially the day before valentine's day (i think?) and.. well.. I don't care. And since Dave can't drive anywhere, I know that he hasn't done anything and he doesn't care. What a strange, strange thing. I guess it was different last year 'cause we were three hours apart and now that we live together, it doesn't matter. But then again, last year was a) and amazing amazing dinner and b) an amazing dinner eaten on the floor watching Nascar. So maybe it's okay that we're not doing anything because, I mean, who could possibly improve upon Nascar? Ur... I mean it's okay because EVERY day is Valentine's day in our apartment o' love. Heh.

In other news.. I'm bored. Not that I ever hav friends anyway, but takin off a semester the same time as moving is a silly move because... well.. there's no school to meet people at. My best friend is LindeR. She's from Florida and she's like 60 and she's my favorite person.

Bittersweet news about the weather... I had to scrape off my car this morning. But on the other hand, it's December 15th and the first time this season that I've had to do that. That's pretty awesome. I also turned in my notice at work today, so I'm officially a-quitting. Yay. And besides that.. um... I brined some pork. Ew/yay?

I don't know that I've made mention of Dave's restaurant adventures on Livejournal, so.. a quick recap. He was working for this awesome chef-man named Philip for this awesome asian-fusion restaurant named shangri la. But then the not-so-awesome investors pulled out and had to pay off philip, who owned 20%. So now Philip has 4 1/2 million dollars, most of which is going into a new restaurant. So Dave's helping him out with this new place and yay. It's going to be a restaurant/bar/something else (there are three store-fronts and they're not yet sure what's happening with the third)

So Dave and I were talking one night and decided that the bar should totally be named the frozen monkey. And that the signature drink should be a frozen banana drink, preferably with coconut on top. So Dave told Philip that he'd run the bar instead of running the prep kitchen (he got his choice)

So today Dave went to this independent restaurant owners and chefs of asheville thing today, and is now the official chef de cuisine of the frozen monkey bar and grille. His description was "so this dude gets drafted and moves to like costa rica to get out of it, and this is what he would open". so caribbean hippy/jam band except for yuppies. and all their burgers will be kobe beef and they're seafood burgers with in-season sauces and shit like that.
