Once again, we started the day with the breakfast of champions, oreos & orange soda...a tribute to my late grandmother. (Matt is NOT naked in the picture, but he was enjoying his breakfast in bed)
After the very nutritious breakfast, of which I got a temporary sugar-high, we checked out Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley. It was a pretty cool place with tons of shops & some cute puppies. Then, we went into downtown San Francisco to take a cable car ride to Fisherman's Wharf to have some lunch-dinner. It was a really cool ride, quite an experience. We had lunch-dinner at Scoma's which was INCREDIBLE. We even got free dessert bc we are newlyweds. The waiter's comment to Matt (when I paid with MY debit card was) "Good start, buddy." Little did he know, I already took Matt's money to put into my account! Ha! Also, while we were there I had a "blonde" moment. We saw a little pigeon outside the window limping down the dock (the second limping bird of the day) & Matt realized it was missing a foot. It was like a bird pirate with a peg-leg. In a moment of absent-mindedness I asked Matt if the poor little things foot would grow back. As if it were some kind of reptile or something?!? Duh, Kirsten. Duh.
The cable-car line was huge, so we walked a little ways, mind you it was up about a mile distance on a 40 degree incline. No joke, it was tough. We then hopped on the cable car for our ride back.
After a very smooth day, Matt decided to throw away/lose the parking ticket, so we proceeded to back up the line to leave the parking garage & Matt freaked out, as he does when minor shit happens. He dug the receipt out of a trashcan (while I sat in the car) & the kind Asian man understood my husband's stupidity. :) I love him.
We called it an early night, grabbed a movie at Blockbuster & I got a book at Barnes & Noble, bc we all know I can't stay awake to watch movies.

Kirsten,
Only you and me would ask such a question about the pigeon. Dad often says, somethings I say, scare him.
Matt,
You should get used to some crazy comments from us Sitko women, if you already have not....
Ahoy matey! It is I the peg-leg pigeon! I was attacked by a cat and got away minus my foot but I was sad, like Kirsten, to find out that it wouldn't regenerate.
