55/366 | BBQ

This is our favorite BBQ joint. I love sitting near the kitchen.

54/366 | Hairy Everything

Somebody in our apartment has decided that the winter is never going to come this year, and started shedding. Sticky lint rollers, we need you!

53/366 | A Shed Full of Evil

We always wondered what this huge shed was for. It’s standing in the middle of a city park, right next to a baseball field. Today, we figured it out. It houses the whole winter worth of ice-melting salt. You know, that evil stuff that burns my dog’s paws. The warm water that it has been probably means the shed is very very full. Ick. I’m not going near it!

51/366 | Just In Case

If something bad ever happens to this apartment building in our absence, I hope, with all my heart, this sticker on the window will save my dog’s life.

50/366 | Brunch

Another unseasonably warm day. We brunch-ed with friends at a local Irish bar that we love, 5 minutes walking distance from our home. I had poached eggs. P had Irish Breakfast.

49/366 | Beer Summit

This DJ Booth is definitely my favorite.

This is the bar where Sgt James Crowley and Prof. Henry Louis Gates Jr met for beers after the wrongful arrest incident, to make nice.^[1]

This is also the bar where P and I met up for our first alone time over beers 4.5 years ago, to get to know each other. It was such a failed first date, so I don’t romanticize this place that way. But it’s a bar we both love nevertheless.

48/366 | Get Back In There Buddy

When our dog senses we are leaving without him, he often hovers around the front door and jumps out as soon as it opens. Thankfully, it’s only to the foyer and interior stairs that he can run out to. From the top of the first set of steps, he turns around to look at us. He ignores our plea to get back in the apartment.

He is the master of guilt trips. He makes me want to stay home all day long.

47/366 | Let’s Get Electric

My workplace installed electric car chargers in the parking garage. They said more are coming as needed. Very cool! I don’t even have a EV and I’m excited.

46/366 | Postal Package

Picked up a package from abroad at the post office. I ordered this thing so long ago that I didn’t remember what it was until I opened it.

45/366 | Surprise

I had a busy day at work, and came home to this. Oh and a tail-wagging Shiba Inu. Happy Valentine’s Day!

44/366 | Groupon Day

I had Groupon lunch and Groupon dinner. This is because we found out that some Groupons were expiring in a few days.

The pizza you see here is P’s special (Spinach, Garlic, Ricotta, Feta, Prosciutto). He orders this whichever pizza places he goes.

43/366 | Cookie

P went to get coffee and sandwiches. Came back with all that, plus this cookie for me.
