I got my act together, had some breakfast, and soon after my dad called looking for a ride home from Sassarini School.  I jumped in the Cressida, and headed out to pick him up.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than coming home, we decided to go out and do some shopping.  I found some good omiyage for my teachers and students, and a couple of books on the Japanese language that look interesting. <\/p>\n<p>For lunch my dad and I went to Rubio&#8217;s in the Santa Rosa Plaza.  I was planning on hitting a Rubio&#8217;s in San Diego, but my schedule looks to be so tight that I figured I&#8217;d take care of it now.  We both had fish tacos, and I also had a shrimp burrito.  I&#8217;m going to gain so much weight on this trip.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"images\/lg_IMG_5170.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=0 src=\"images\/sm_IMG_5170.jpg\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>In the evening my dad and I went to the Degliantoni&#8217;s, for the monthly poker night.  Matt Atkinson was there &#8211; I hadn&#8217;t seen him yet this trip and it was nice to say hello.  We got to hear about Bob Weller&#8217;s trip to Italy, and he had even brought back some great wines for us to try.  We had burritos for dinner (delicious!) and played poker for a couple of hours.<\/p>\n<p>The games were pretty good &#8211; most of them I had played before.  My dad helped me out with the details of some of the games that I didn&#8217;t remember.  These guys play so often that they know the games by heart, and they are throwing around poker terms all the time.  I ended up losing five bucks on the night, but it could have been a lot worse &#8211; I won a couple of hands near the end otherwise I&#8217;d be almost ten bucks in the hole.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"images\/lg_IMG_5173.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=0 src=\"images\/sm_IMG_5173.jpg\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>We played outside on the patio, and the weather was perfect for an outdoor poker night.  Too much fun.  Afterwards my dad and I just walked back home, and hit the hay soon after.  Tomorrow I&#8217;m hoping to go visit Mark at his new job in the Sonoma Valley Art Museum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I woke up at home with the house empty &#8211; everyone had gone to work.
