These are the two that I’d get for Jules and I if I had an iPod… anyone want to get me one? Anyone? *silence*

“I’m an Open Source kind of girl.” (Young woman at Ramada Inn on Market Street, overheard by Rick Kleffel.)

“I don’t care if someone has M.D. after their name. OK, so she’s a neurosurgeon. But is she hot?” (Man to his parents, overheard at AT&T Park by The Chronicle’s Heather Knight.)

“I’ve been faking orgasms for a year; the least you can do is fake listening to me.” (Woman to man, overheard at the Drunken Fish Restaurant in Oakland by Victor Miller.)

“How could he not know that pretty girls do not eat dessert? . Then he ate ice cream in front of me. I am so not going out with him ever again.” (Young woman in financial district office, overheard by co-worker.)

“She dumped me for the Lord.” (Man at Starbucks near the Tower Market in San Francisco, overheard by Frank Evans.)

The SF Chronicle article full of evesdropping goodness.

As Jules mentioned we went over to B-Ma’s new place and had hot pot and played Settlers of Catan. We played the 6 player expanded edition. It played out about the same as the 4 player version except you can built after every turn, which makes for some pretty fast gameplay. You can get resources and build on every turn. Craziness. Needless to say, Jules and I lost. I think we came in 5th and 6th. Haha.

On Sunday I played Arcana Evolved with a little group. It’s like Dungeons and Dragons. There was much die rolling, axe wielding and beer drinking. Pretty fun but it went pretty slow this time. We played for 5 days in the game and killed 9 goblins on the last day. That took about 7 or 8 hours. Woo hoo!

Tom brought his corgi puppy to play with another puppy there. So cute.

So this weekend has been fairly full of odds and ends.

I finished watching Little Miss Sunshine with mike, and really enjoyed that movie. [SPOILER]Though I have to say that the superfreak dance sequence made me cringe. It’s really hard watching a ten year old do a stripper dance. And the little beauty pageant hopefuls…. are really, really creepy. I’m glad I was spared these rituals growing up. I don’t think I could live down the bright blue makeup. Oh wait, they did that to us in my Chinese Dance school. Doh.

We also went on a costco excursion. And I just received my costco rebate from American Express. 108$ baby! Which means that I spent way, way too much money. Hey, what if I charged my mortgage to AMEX? Ah, the possibilities….

On Saturday night, Ben Ma invited us out to hot pot. I haven’t had good hot pot in a really long time, so it was pretty delicious. I noticed a distinctive lack of shrimps (really essential for flavoring the soup stock well IMO) due to an invitee’s shrimp allergy, but it was still tasty. And there were pea shoots. Mmmm… pea shoots…

And we played Settlers—- DOH!!!

My post will now abruptly end due to Mike usurping my blog contents and the picture! (okay, so I suppose the picture was his to begin with). I published my post halfway through because I’ve accidently deleted them before while writing. At which point I noticed that Mike had just posted a new entry entitled, “Rainy Weekend” compared to my “Weekend”. And what does he talk about??? NOoooo… my hot pot… my settles. Traitor! Heh, not really. I guess that’s what happens when we do the same things. But Hah! I have something he did not do. I had a concert at Lake Merrit United Methodist Church (beautiful new venue overlooking the lake) and we had a full house! Which was most excellent. Our next concert is entitled Diva’s Revenge II, at Davies Symphony Hall, bringing back your favorite broadway hits and opera numbers in their full splendor. Should be a most excellently fun concert, and I can’t wait. April 30th, 7 pm. More details to come.
