November

November has always been my least favourite month of the year. It rains, it gets cold and it gets darker and darker every day.

Last weekend we went for sushi at Shabusen (Burrard and Robson) with people from Luke's work (and their significant others). We walked downtown. So nice to get out of the house when it's not raining. I must say I was not impressed. We had the Korean Bbq/Sushi All You Can Eat. I didn't think the sushi was very good - I don't like sushi places that use a lot of mayo, and I think this place did. There also just wasn't very much selection as far as rolls were concerned. I wasn't too thrilled with the Korean Bbq either... you have to cook your own food! If I wanted to cook my own food I could have stayed at home. Luke did most of the cooking, he did a good job, and it was tasty, don't get me wrong, it was just weird to have bowls of raw meat on the table alongside our sushi. After dinner we walked home and had an early night.

Anyway... Saturday didn't do much, I went to a friend's house from work and we had lots of different drinks. I brought Amaretto and Sour Mix to make Amaretto Sours and they were very tasty. I also made some very good Molasses Cookies. Played with her German Shepherd puppy and played Taboo. Luke had dinner with Larry and Catherine and played some Mario Dance Party.

Sunday morning I went to yoga and then we scooted all the way to New West to play Carcasonne with Kimb and Greg. Little Lysander is soooo cute (4.5 months old).

I stayed home from work this morning. My back has been incredibly stiff for the past two weeks. It's been really painful and Luke has had a hard time working on the knots. I finally have a massage appointment tomorrow. This morning though, I woke up with a terrible headache. I've never had a migraine before, but pain that starts in you neck/upper back and radiates up to the base of your skull? It wasn't the type of headache I've ever had before. I think I probably just slept funny cause a few hours with my microwave hot bag loosened my neck up enough so that I could relax without pain. Not to mention some ibuprofen every little while.

I went to yoga tonight and it was great. I might try to go to the early class (6:45am) on Friday... I never get to go because of work but this week is a holiday!

Back to work tomorrow, massage appointment at 3. :)
