I Love My New Belt

I'm taking motivation from [livejournal.com profile] sabotabby and showing you what I'm wearing! To go out for birthday dinner, I'm wearing clothes I really like but that don't feel quite right for school here. Here's the belt I thrifted yesterday; I love it! I need more like this if I can find them.

And now back to reading Suzanne Mettler's The Submerged State: How Invisible Government Policies Undermine American Democracy.

Birthday Dinner was Awesome!

I had a great dinner with [livejournal.com profile] restoman at Firudo. I thought for a minute I'd over-ordered sushi and was going to have to pay extra, but I managed. I like the restaurant a lot, and their wasabi was really good. I may take Danae there rather than to Sakanaya (the conveyor belt place), which is fun, but possibly not quite as good, more dinery, less relaxing and low-key, and in fact, more expensive. They have deserts to please a variety of people, too; from green-tea ice cream to tempura bananas (and even tempura oreos). It was a good birthday dinner with good company. I may make a sushi person out of Glen yet!

While I was out, my dad posted this picture of he and my brothers on our way to New York City for the week in August of 2009. If I remember correctly, they picked me up as I was getting out of work in downtown Chicago and we left from there. I'm not sure why else I'd be all dressed up. That's my brother James in the back left, and Timothy who's in the front row looking like he's ready to throw down. I miss them, and I hope we get to another trip like that sometime, hopefully with my mother. I certainly do look different these days!
