A good friend, Zeke from the "Far East" - Bay that is ...Martinez or Lafayette or some other exotic locale, is celebrating a birthday. One of the reasons to patronize the Warehouse last weekend was to celebrate this monumental event. The servers, two beautiful women, brought out cake singing Happy Birthday and then proceeded to give Zeke a Boob job with two over stuffed stockings...one does not go to the Warehouse for a classy evening! Regardless, I forgot that I had these photos on my phone and I'm immortalizing him on this blog in honor of his Birthday. You're welcome Birthday boy!
And from the "World's Greatest Staff" desk, the teachers at my school have a Fantastic Friday luncheon every Friday. Last friday, I was late to the luncheon due to many Friday meetings back to back and a day rushed from 7AM to 7PM. Upon entering, the teachers had decorated the entire room with gnomes...for those of you who don't know, the teachers continuously give me gnomes as a sort of an inside joke. What wonderfully kind and terribly warm people. Not only do these inspiring individuals work with some really needy kids, but they still have a place in their heart to continuously keep a smile on my face!
Last night? A trip over to the South 'Ninse for a generous evening of wine and food at Foggerty Winery (in the town of Woodside).
A beautiful winery with a view of the entire south finger of the bay. The event supported a clinic in rural Kenya, and was heavily attended by medical professionals (don't worry friends, I refrained from asking for medical advice while there, I'm not sure my hypochondriac partner can say the same thing but I'm guessing he was on his best behavior).
Our host was Ryan, a charming forked tongued demon quick to wit but with true compassion for his Kenyan compadres. Feel free to check out the website of the Tiba Foundation: http://tibafoundation.org/index
Rusty and Matt (Ryan's partner) discussing the plight of Kenyans in rural Africa...oh, and of course, Rupaul's Drag Race.
We had a fantastic evening meeting wonderful people, drinking fine wine and bidding on African art (come by and see it...quite beautiful). Thanks Ryan and Matt for the terrific experience.
And finally, a photo montage of my true love!

I did not disclose my medical ailments to any of the doctors, but I DID almost have to smack someone who wanted my art work! Luckily, after two separate swaps, everyone was happy and satisfied with their purchases.
