it's almost spring, get outta the house!

i woke up this morning to the realization that it's already march.

what the eff?!? where did january and february go!!!

it was beautiful outside today, and for lunch josh and i ventured to second street in long beach to take in our fave artichoke pizza at olives!

and as we stood at the counter, taking in all the delicious-looking edibles, we saw the strangest looking thing.

what the hell is prosciutto di parma???

according to wikipedia and italianmade.com, it's basically a superspecial type of ham that's all imported and sliced superthin and crap. i'm not a superfoody but i will tell you i was pretty surprised to hear it was just ham. like i thought there was cheese around it. is that white stuff fat then?

so after lunch, i took our dog jimmy on a walk so he could enjoy the beautiful day, too - glad i was able to snap a pic of this "soon" sign! i don't know why people put huge signs in random places, but i love it. what does it mean? is this vacant lot gonna turn into something soon? is the end of the world coming soon? is Soon running for mayor? the world may never know!

so off we went on our walk, and lemme tell you this dog was superjazzed about it...

so jazzed he pooped almost immediately!!! uh i have to tell you the only reason i took this pic was to give josh a good laugh - we're always pointing out pooping dogs at the dog beach and talking about doing a coffee table photography book featuring just that, called that dog's pooping...

the funny thing is i saw our realtor drive by really shortly after that, and i kinda think he may have seen me take this pic and i kinda think he may think i'm sick now...

jimmy's favorite walk ever is when we take him on this long 3.5 mile circle around downtown long beach, with a major stretch of it on the beach path along ocean blvd.

it really is one of those things that just makes him super smiley!

it was just a really fun outsidey kind of day!

and now i'm windin down with a couple of wine coolers and some sunday night tv - i aint gonna lie to you when i say i wish L word would hurry up and kill off jenny schecter already!
