this and that

Veronica picked up this t-shirt from city sports when we were last in boston. it seemed quite appropriate...though the never return thing is stretching it a bit. the front of the shirt has an image of a palm tree on a tiny stretch of island. i like it and so does V.

we went to the original Taco Tuesday last night over at the Cabarete East condo complex. we had not gone for a long time and only when it was held back over at Coastal Cottages. the complex looks good and the restaurant turned out quite nice as well. we saw Rob & Sandy, the developers of the complex and who also live there. they moved down here from Seattle a few years ago. they're very nice people and i'm happy for them that they did so well with that development. they have been kicking back since the project finished up and will be traveling. good for them!

Juan returned from his trip to Greenland this past weekend. we saw him yesterday and caught him up on our clients and latest endeavors. we talked some red sox yankees together as well. it's fun that he is a red sox fan and so anti-yankees. he recently got himself set up with satellite TV so that he could watch all the sox games - he really is into it. he also has a high definition TV and keeps saying that he'll invite us over to watch a game. that would be fun to do! i also have never seen anything in high definition and am curious how it looks, as people rave about it.

the cleaning lady just left. she's always complaining about having a cold - must be from going in and out of air conditioned condos all day. well, today she said that all was well, so that was a welcome change. she's actually very nice as opposed to the extremely unfriendly one that we had at Windchimes - Francia. man, she was one grumpy individual. amazingly you really do not meet many grumpy or unhappy dominicans. they truly are a happy set of people - always smiling, laughing, and having fun. it's great to see and makes you lighten up too.
