St. Patrick's day ++

later in the morning i went for a stroll around the compound then out onto the main road. at a recommendation from antony cox's wife sally, i checked out a nearby spa. today was the day when i decided to get a leg waxing. it was a first and probably the last time i'll be doing that. i'd rather go thru childbirth than that pain. and all i kept thinking about was that funny email where she was doing it to herself and i kept smiling thru the pain and i was only having the legs done! it was cheap 16USD.
bought a mini quiche lorraine for lunch. watched "rightous kill" denero pachino dvd. dad came home early to hang out with me and we went to town and went to diamond dept store (like nieman marcus or nordstroms) with real gucci, ferragamo, etc. also went to electronic store where he was looking for some outdoor speakers for his stereo system. to have music out on the front patio now, he just opens the doors but it would be nice to control the sound. we headed back and stopped at Riverside Cafe for an early supper ... about 6p. i had the most wonderful meatloaf. seriously the meatloaf was awesome. dad had caesar salad with chicken. the Riverside Cafe ranks up there as one of my favorite spots ... it's actually in a condo highrise complex with lots of families and an occasional dog. the cafe is next to the pool but separate enough that you dont have to see all shapes and sizes in their bathing costumes! Sitting at the outdoor tables is a great option to watch the river traffic and river hyacinth floating by. river traffic is mostly barges with containers on them or some barges with piles of stuff (sand?). so peaceful.
oh, i wore beige slax and greenish linen blouse. looking forward to Wednesday as each day is a new adventure.
