Jen and I ran out on Friday night to Annondale to have dinner with the Martins. The club has a BBQ every friday night of summer and they put on a real party. So we stuffed ourselves with steak and ribs and shrimp and everything else and had a great time. We got home promptly and passed right out.

Saturday was back to the house fun. We put in a second offer on the counter we had received. We're now crossing out fingers that we get it, but we're still looking. We drove by a couple places just to keep our options open, and then called it a day. On our way home we decided to have a really early dinner at Mijaries. We were just about the only people on the patio outside. We sat down and ordered a couple Margaritas and dug into the chips. The people sitting a couple tables away were into about their 5th round, and were honestly the loudest people i've heard at any restaurant in a long time. I was laughing my ass off and enjoying their conversation. It was their grandma's birthday, and she had quite a few drinks. You could tell that one of her grandson's was gay, and his new boyfriend was not to the liking of grandma. But the granddaughter was the loudest of all. She kept yelling OH GRAM!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAM!!! OH ITS A PARTY GRAM!!! I'm dying laughing as i'm eating. A couple people are sat down at the table next to us, and before they even get around to ordering their drinks, they pop right back up, and i hear one lady in the party say something like "My God! How can they be so loud?!" They went to find a table elsewhere in the restaurant.

So Jen and I got home and i popped in a movie. Now its really really early.... only about 5, but Jen passes out, and i lay down for 2 minutes and i wake up at about midnight. The lights are all out, and Jen has moved from the couch to the bedroom.

I get back up and work for an hour or so, and then crash again. So as a result, i woke up at about 6AM today and couldn't go back to sleep.

We went over to Bob's to use the pool. We stopped by Anthony's for a couple of sandwiches and then took them over to eat on the patio. We sat in the water for a couple hours with David, and then headed back out to look at a open house. Gillian our agent was showing a house in pasadena, and we figured we'd go by and check it out. It turns out that its a beautiful little house up Allen near Dominico's. 3 bedroom, 2 bath, and a garage that's really a nice little back guest house. Well its way too much and we all know the schools in Pasadena suck.... so that settles that. If it was anywhere else i'd want to make a offer on it immediately.

We headed home after that and I've just sat around the house the rest of the day. Jen went out later to look at another house back up in La Crescenta, but its on a busy street... so again... that settles that.

We sat down to another Netflix rental... Roman Holiday. Talk about a classic old melodramatic movie! Its a fun little movie, and Jen gets embarrassed every time Gregory Peck spills a drink in it. anyway... off to work tomorrow, so i gotta get some sleep. We hopefully will get news about the house we made the offer on tomorrow.
