Puppy Time!

Bill and I found a Shiba Inu puppy this weekend! We'll be able to pick him up in about 2 weeks. This will be my first puppy and I am SO EXCITED! Now we have to think of a name. Here's the little guy at 3 weeks.
Here he is at 6 weeks.

Whole Wheat Strangers

My favorite American supermarket is by far Trader Joe's. I shop there at least once a week and the closest location to me is situated in West Hollywood in a somewhat Russian neighborhood. It's generally crowded and often people are jockeying for aisle space and curiously, for the food as well...although I've never seen an item out of stock. It's a lively crowd and generally people are pretty nice. Often when I go on my own, I meet a new market buddy. Here are my favorites.

A few weeks ago, while contemplating the tomato sauce, I heard someone say, "Why do you walk around like you're scared?" Not realizing the man was speaking to me, I ignored the question but then felt a tap on my shoulder. It was one half of what turned out to be a very nice gay couple. The man continued, "Why do you slouch like that? It looks ugly." We exchanged a couple of sentences and then they proceeded to help me pick out their favorite tomato sauce and other grocery items.

Yesterday, while standing in the check-out line, the very good looking boy/man in front of me turned around and let me know that he went to Berkeley. I was confused and looked down to see if I was possibly wearing some UCLA gear that might have prompted the man to volunteer that information. Politely I replied with my collegiate credentials and then he proceeded to tell me that he was on the college golf team.
Me: Oh, OK. You look like an athlete
Him: Yeah, I was the fullback.
Me: In golf?
Him: Well... yeah... or in the other sport.
