Celebrating the Ladydoc Last Night

Posted on by Markman

Last night we went out to celebrate LD’s birthday at a place called Black and Blue Steak and Crab. Since the establishment was participating in restaurant week we decided to go there, plus I like to try new places. Although the food was very good, it’s not really our vibe, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. When we got home I presented LD with some gifts that I got my little swimmer. A book by Katie Ledecky and some really cool looking smart AR goggles which have a heads up display in the eyepiece so you can see all kinds of stats as you are swimming – pretty futuristic looking, hopefully they’ll work well for her.

Happy Birthday LadyDoc!

Today, I celebrate you with all my heart… my friend, my love, my one-and-only. The smile that
brightens my day, the hand that feels so right in mine. We just fit together. You’ve brought so
much happiness and love to this life we share, and you’re with me everywhere I go… always on my mind, always in my heart.

That’s why I want to make your birthday as incredibly happy as all those days you’ve made
for me. So let me put my arms around you. Let me celebrate you with all my heart.. my friend, my love, my one-and-only.

It may be your birthday, but somehow, I lucked out with the best gift of all (you!)

Finding Colorful Turkeys in Town

Posted on by Markman

Went into Brookline today to go check out some of the turkey sculptures! After finding some of them we went to Legal Seafoods and I bought LD lunch as part of this thing I’m doing for her birthday month which is everyday I do a little something, could be big, could be small, like yesterday’s corn muffin. Sort of like an Advent Calendar of the Ladydoc! Haha! We made use of the restaurant participating in Boston Restaurant Week so that was cool. After that we got some vegan ice cream and a place next door called Van Leeuwen. I ended up getting a hot chocolate while LD got some delicious vegan ice cream flavored treats.

Seeing John Cusack Live and In Person!

Posted on by Markman

As one of my xmas gifts, LD got us tickets to see John Cusack down at the Emerson Colonial in Boston. Never actually been inside that theater before although I must of passed it tons of times. There was a showing of his movie High Fidelity and he was going to talk about it after the screening. Of course my all time favorite Cusack movies are Serendipity, Say Anything, and my All-time favorite, Better Off Dead.

Was thinking it might be cool to try this beginner’s pottery wheel (one time) workshop, either with just us or maybe another one of our couples friends. Anyone out there game? Speaking of games….

Gametime: Dungeons of Deadrock (demo). Pretty cool little game. Also Part 2!
