Columbus Day 2
Friday September 23 2005 @ 10:08 pm

Lillian slept pretty well in crib Mid-West last night and I think she’ll do allright here. I slept until 9:45am and then went downstairs to start work. I had to register some domain names, set up a poker table design and a blog. Debbie and Mom took Lillian to the Carters store to do some baby and Unlimited Designs shopping and I stayed back to get some work done. I was thinking about hitting Skyline Chili for lunch but Debbie called and offered to pick me up a burrito from Chipotle. When they returned at 1:30pm I chowed down as much as I could eat - about half - and saved the rest for later.

At 3:30pm I moved the laptop into the sun room and worked while watching the Cubs play the Astros. I was sending good vibes towards and Astros and Willy Taveras and Russ Springer who had thrown me balls the day before. Sadly Willy K-ed with the bases loaded and the Astros took a big loss.

After Dad got back from work we all went out to dinner at an Italian pasta place near Sawmill. It was called Bienvenici something. I noticed that next door was a kabob joint so I went in to grab a menu. sadly it looked like a franchise and not that great. The italian place was a order at the counter and we bring it out kind of place and Dad placed the large order. Wild mushroom ravioli for me, mushroom pasta for Debbie, cheese ravioli for mom and Jason, shrimp and scallop carbonara for Dad and angel hair for Patti. The place was very loud due to an influx of kids and infants. In fact I think the kids and infants outnumbered the adults. Our dinners came out and mine came out wrong - I poked into the ravioli shell and saw just cheese so I took it back. Mom’s was ok but it was cold. Once corrected the dinners tasted just fine.
