Too Busy to Blog!

Thursday the 10th we were able to have dinner with Bud, the guy who got Lance started in radio.  Bud knows I’m really warming up to sushi, so he took us to Mikuni.  Although I ordered something pretty tame, he insisted I try the Japanese Mafia roll, which was great!  I know it had some orange fish eggs, scallop sauce and tuna, but it was so delicious that I didn’t care.  However, the most entertaining moment of the evening came when Bud insisted that Lance try a piece of the deep-fried California roll.  Lance will probably do things for Bud that he won’t even do for me because Bud is SOOOOOOOOO nice!  (what am I saying about myself???)  He looked like he was going to die, but he ate it so quickly that one might think he actually enjoyed it. 

The next day we were on our way to So. Cal.  Saturday morning my parents took us to Grandma’s for breakfast.  Let me tell you, I probably could have gone without food for the rest of the day!  We tried to work some of it off at Downtown Disney, where Lance was able to buy his Moroccan Mud shampoo bars and the girls were able to get a hairwrap.  After that, we went to Anne Marie and Don’s place, where my girls tried their best to flirt with their son, Ben.  Well, actually, Allyn proved more interested in Ben’s toys than Ben himself!   More eating followed the next day as we headed over to Melanie and Rob’s.  Her parents, John and Georgia, caught up with mine, and once more Allyn was more interested in Noah’s toys than Noah himself.   Today, Monday, the girls and I took Lance to Ontario Int’l Airport, and then swung by the old home for a quick picture.  Let me first say that when I owned the place, it was much cuter!  There were a couple more trees, some pretty hedges, and flower pots on the stairs!  Alas, despite its faults, you must always retain a soft spot in your heart for your first home, even if you can’t afford it any longer!  I think if we ever moved back to So Cal we would live in a box!  After I snapped the photo, we quickly headed to Victoria Gardens.  “Outdoor Mall” does not do this place justice.  It is like a shopping city within Rancho Cucamonga!  Fortunately, I hadn’t taken the girls’ swimsuits and towels out of the car, so they were able to frolic in the fountain at the center of shopping city.  Now, we have napped, and are ready for Tuesday at Lego Land!
