happy birthday matt marsh

yoga this morning was exactly what my body needed - it helped me feel more restored and grounded. and yay, sara & connie joined us too. sara is super flexible and it was so easy for her to flow into bird of paradise and slide into her splits.

tonight was all about celebrating matt's birthday, hosted by his wife and my wonderful friend michelle. the party highlights for me:

sitting next to the birthday boy, of course

dinner at crustacean

lavender mojitos

an's famous roasted dungeness crab

hanging with steph & jake

the fact that the restaurant was packed downstairs because music peeps were pre-partying for the BET Awards (to air tomorrow night) 

Cee-Lo was in the house 

the weirdest part of the evening was when we began to sit around the table and the woman next to me asked  if my better half was joining, and all i could muster up was a polite no. i mean, what was i going to say? uh, no, actually my husband shot himself in the head this past january. i didn't want to kill my mojito buzz.
