valentine's day madness


so i finally took photos of my belly. what a difference each day makes. i've been feeling pretty pregnant lately. i am still wearing regular clothes, but definitely reaching for anything loose and non-binding. it's too cold here to wear my old maternity couture, so i'm kinda struggling. it's too cold to care. also got a love package from the lagaso goldbergs filled with more maternity clothes. arigato, family!

met saya in shibuya for lunch. she just got back from hawaii, so she was all dark and happy. she indulged my desire for indian food (!!) and we ate too much at samrat. it was nice to see her. and just like that, it was time to pick joaquin up from yochien.

JG and i headed to hiroo for his dentist appt, then we took a long walk thru arisugawa park while he ate his croissant from burdigala. then finally, home. once mercy arrived to babysit, i went to meet A. in roppongi for a date at mama africa's, which was CLOSED, dammit. ended up getting persian food at aladin (intense sensory overload), then we finally went to check out midtown to hunt for good dessert. totally whatever, completely underwhelmed, and we didn't even get good dessert. but it was of course lovely to spend an evening together, alone, just for a little while.

my "little" valentine made me a beautiful card, and i gave him a red heart balloon, and a little box of see's chocolates, of course. my "big real" valentine gave me a cd he hunted for - an mc solaar album i lost many years ago that i love. what a guy. i gave him new muji pajamas made of cotton gauze, matching with me. muy romantico.
