Chris Novoa's Most Shallow Depths

7Nov/07Off

My Birthday 2007 – new music stuff!

PF Changs, new Rode NT1-A, and new Line 6 Tone Port UX2... Also, some new face scrub and aftershave balm from Origins (more on the face care later). Amazingly, nothing new for Otto.

On my birthday, devin took andrea and me to eat at PF Changs, it was a toss up between there and Los Cucos - Andrea being the coin and PF Changs being tails. I have this strange obsession with their chopsticks, which are not like normal chopsticks where one end is tapered and enlarges on the other end. These are tapered on both ends and somewhat flat in the middle. They are very well balanced and simply different - here you see the obsession with such a simple object set. So I kept a pair.

The bill came out above $100 food was excellent as usual, with getting my usual Chang's Spicy Chicken, Chow Mein (without meat this time) and my favorite, the Nutty Uncle alcoholic beverage (strawberry, coconut, almond liqueur, and an unspecified rum) - Andrea tried a tofu ordeal in which the tofu had a very disturbing texture, but good taste (on the outside - no taste inside)... Devin, the usual - something completely different. It was a fun evening, and now you know what we stuffed ourselves.

Devin’s Birthday

So, Devin turned 27 yesterday, and we did nothing for his birthday, damn financial ineptitude. It just amazes me how everyone's getting old... I mean, it's nothing special right, everyone ages and moves on, but memories of 6 years ago and more are still so fresh, and yet so much like a dream. Just makes me think of how fast time flies.

All my girl-friends are in the baby business now, most have babies and the ones who don't are planning for it very soon. Scary transition, that, but it's pretty exciting.
