olympics

the olympics have been great to watch. however, i can't wait until they are over so that i can finally get back to focusing on work and studying. if the tv is on i just get pulled into whatever sport if on! no matter if i even know what the sport is about! nbc does a great job of making anything seems exciting. especially the clips right before the event with the dramatic music. i think they could make a game of tic-tac-toe seem like a battle for world domination!

happy valentine's day!

happy valentine's day to all! today, josephine and i went to classics at the intercontinental for dinner. it was a very nice dinner. probably the best french cousine i've had in cleveland. the squab that josephine ordered was really good, but my sea bass left a bit to be desired. the seared tuna was excellent and so was the duck liver. and of course the dessert was really good! josephine ordered the mona lisa which was a tangerine puree rapped in chocolate mouse and covered in chocolate and topped with almond spoom. my dessert was better! i had a mocha parfait infused with 14 yr old scotch. so good!! i would definitely recommend it! of course i had to trick josephine into going. i told her that i was cooking and that i wanted her to dress up. she actually fell for it! she deserves to be treated like a princess! she's the best wife in the world!!
