Function Brain Not

Kenny came over on Sunday. Twas lots of fun. We went to Fort Point/Crissy Field--where I saw my cove of comfort being turned into a tourist attraction, in the worst way possible. There was illegal crabbing, mounds of people, a hot dog stand (granted they were turkey dogs)--there was even a freakin' café/bookstore! I loved it there because it used to be dilapidated, falling apart, not a paved road in site. How quickly things change over a year. Soon, they'll be charging for parking.

But I digress...We walked around and then went back up to the car, which we all thought we'd nearly die by the time we got back up the stairs. And I drove Kenny and A.J. to the Lucas Arts campus. We noticed that the Exploritorium had a lot of scaffolding up and wondered what was happening. Continuing that thought, we contemplated getting everyone together to do a BBQ at Crissy Field and then adventure into Exploritorium. All were great ideas which may have to be taken up.

We parked and made our way down Chestnut--but, I lie. It was Francisco. We didn't want to get caught up in any sort of human traffic jams. We walked and talked about just about everything until we got up to Fuzio where we proceeded to dine. A.J. and I had the Firecracker Pork Fusilli while Kenny had the Chicken Sausage Penne. We debated if it was pronounced "Pen" or "Penny". I still can't figure out Italian. (By the way, it's Pen-nay like Renee!) We continued to talk about a certain school hiring certain professors to teach a certain program which they may or may not have worked in that certain industry... It was funny. Comical even.

Once we were done with it all, we walked back to the car and I drove to Andronico's, which is the best indie small-chain super market ever. Still extremely expensive but the organic whole milk is worth it, not to mention the two 8 oz. salmon steaks for $9 for both! Yipee! But still cheaper than snow crab *shudder* ~(= 3=)~ After Kenny bought some Honey and Sweet Cream ice cream, we went back home. A.J. proceeded by playing Metal Gear Solid 4 for Kenny's enjoyment as he gobbled his pint of ice cream.

Overall, it was the first weekend where I did something outside that was not related to previous arrangements or family things in a long, long time.
