The week in review
So today Ive been pretty emotional. Im not sure why, but perhaps it was knowing as I was leaving for work that Josh wouldn’t be there when I got home. Ive teared up over a newspaper article about an art display that’s going on downtown which has a ceramic star for every military person who has been killed in Iraq. The idea is that people can take a star and leave it anywhere they choose. Im thinking about taking one to Rochester on my visit but not sure where I would want to place it so that it doesn’t get discarded and will serve the purpose that the display was intended to serve. Any suggestions?
So emotional yes. How do I sum up a great week with Josh except to say its been packed full of togetherness and quality time. To start with, he is now certified in shiatsu which is fantastic and he is 1/3 of his way through the course.
From his certification to his grandmothers house, to photo's, Embarcadero Center, shopping in China Town, The Container Store, Ross Ross Ross, Marshals, Barnes & Noble, and last nights adventure to Shalimar and Bed Bath & Beyond. Im sure Ive left many things out but you get the idea on what the weeks been like. Lots of shopping which I love, however cant afford much. I did manage to find a coat at the Ross here in SF which I believe will be *almost* warm enough for Rochester and plenty warm for SF. Its not a leather. :-(
Shalimar was fantastic. Josh has eaten there a couple of times in the past and now introduced me to it. They consider the type of food Pakistani and Indian which amuses me. The place reminded me of a Nick Tahoes type place with really good food. Of course minus the direlects and strays that wander in on occasion. The place looked in appearance like Nicks, and was in the middle of the ghetto (or at least what I would consider ghetto). Its definitely not the best neighborhood but yet people still come for the food. Interesting aye?
Getting home from work was a bit odd. I kept feeling like Josh was still going to be here. Even with seeing all his stuff gone, I still wanted to think that he was hiding in the closet and just going to jump out at any moment. I knew it wouldnt be the case but still couldnt help but think perhaps there was a chance.
I didnt really do much of anything this evening. Talked to Jason for a bit, talked to my sister for a bit, and got a hold of my friend Jay from Rochester who is in town for a few days looking at apartments. He should be moving here in December which will be cool. I am going to meet up with him for a drink or two at the Pilsner in a bit.
Until later, I bid you all farewell
