I woke up to a comfortably warm room this morning. wahoooo!!! Dave is awesome! I think I can pack away the space heater and the rediculous number of layers we've been using. Jonathan is still asleep...at 10am.

We've got a playdate with Aylin today @ 3. Iris, has to bail out because she didn't have the car. And Sharon came as we were leaving. We hightailed it home at 3:45.

Cathy came here tonight to watch Jonathan while Dave and I had a nice dinner in the city with one of his co-workers. I ran Cathy through the house and had to bolt to the train. Poor Jonathan wailed when he saw me leave, but he apparently settled down pretty quickly. It's Restaurant Week, so we're getting a deal at a steak house near Dave's office. I got a whole new outfit -- black/white/gray dress, black cardigan, silver bracelets, and killer red shoes. I was so stylin'! Especially since I have my fashionable gray coat too. I took the train in, then walked a couple of blocks (past the famous Macy's) to Dave's office. I actually passed the restaurant. Dinner was really nice. I had the house salad, salmon with mushroom sauce, and choco 'mousse' (which was really cake). Dave had (what's the raw meat appetizer called?), ribs, and the Key lime pie (I sampled it). Sean and Rachel were really nice; they're from Michigan! It was nice to go out and have a relaxed, grown-up conversation. We made it back to the train station with about 10 minutes to spare. The night at home seemed to go really well.
