Work was busy this week, but it was my own doing. I wasn’t in the mood to be bored so I kept bugging my boss for more piles of work. What an oddball I am.<\/p>\n

Speaking of work, a woman recommended BirkenstockCentral.com’s Bargain Page<\/a> a little while back and I ended up buying some sandals<\/a> from there:<\/p>\n

\"Birks\"<\/center><\/p>\n

I am in love with these shoes. I was never much of a sandal person because so many pairs I’ve owned were uncomfortable. But these, oh these are amazing, I don’t even feel like I’m wearing them! The first day I wore them to work the women in the office were all excited (this was also the day I came back from vacation when I had my pedicure). The woman who suggested the website even gave me a sterling silver toe ring to celebrate my feet freedom, what a sweetie! They’re totally ruining me ;)<\/p>\n

Also speaking of work… being able to listen to podcasts at work has been fantastic. I’ve really been getting into the Speaking of Faith<\/a> podcast (thanks for the recommendation ! And thanks to all who gave recommendations, they’ll keep me busy for a while). The whole podcast thing is quite a revolution in information being pumped into my brain, I once again keep up with current stuff just by listening while I’m puttering away with work and it makes the day go by so much faster!<\/p>\n

Friday night Michael and I headed up to Ortino’s Northside, where I enjoyed a bottle of Delirum Tremens (oh how I love that pink elephant covered belgian brew) and a delicious burger with mushrooms and swiss. The weather played nice and we were able to eat out on the porch at the restaurant and enjoy the evening.<\/p>\n

Today was just a chill out day. It was 2PM before I knew it and took a nice long bath. Yesterday I went to Whole Foods<\/a> in North Wales to pick up some fish for the dish Michael is making tonight: Mixed Grill of Mussels, Clams, and Shrimp<\/a> (without the chorizo, and with fresh green onions from my garden in place of shallots). I’m really looking forward to it, we picked up a bottle of Sterling Chardonnay<\/a> to go with it and some nice, crusty sesame bread – yum!<\/p>\n

And my tiger lilies bloomed:<\/p>\n
