happy birthday, roger

Roger Nguyen
Tonight we all celebrated Roger’s birthday at PF Chang’s in Long Beach. As always, the sauce preparation was a little over the top…I love how the server is trying to explain to me what Chinese mustard is…but nevertheless, the food was delicious. It’s always good times hanging out with my buddies and family. We decided we missed it. We’re going to attempt to bring by the OCEB and have dinner together once a month. In honor of this, above is the picture of the original OCEB at Roger’s birthdays. More pictures here.

Tonight Mike & I watched Wicked at the Pantages for a second time. It was just as good as the first time, if not better. The cast was excellent (and so were our seats)!

Elphaba & Galinda were very strong…they were both amazing. Once again we were disappointed in Fiyero…but oh well. Can’t win them all!

Completely recommend this show to everybody! I do not know anybody who has seen this who doesn’t absolutely love it!

no pictures from this event (it’s not allowed!)

coolest dog in the world

Mickey (1997-2007)

mickey boy

We will never forget our friend, our brother.

The little puppy who believed that the world was his chew toy; the smelly dog who made us feel safe and secure every night. Having you leave us was one of the hardest events we have had to bear, but we know that you are in a better place and we will always keep you in our hearts.

We will miss you.

A tribute to Mickey.
