This was a busy weekend for me! Almost like my normal life used to be...
Friday night, Anne and I went out to see Stephen Marley & Zap Mama at Emo's. Stephen Marley was as I had expected. Zap Mama, however, blew me away! They're from Belgium and they played so many styles of music with incredible female harmonies. From funk, hip-hop, reggae, rock, African music, latin and all very tightly executed.
Check them out: Zap Mama
Saturday night I did a wedding out in Buda at Kali-Kate with DJ Ted and it was great. Ceremony was flawless and Ted's humor on the mic really made for a nice evening.
Today was a huge day for me. Had a great morning at church. I volunteered to help out at Sacred Shelf, which is our awesome bookstore. I am excited to begin training and learn more about all the great books, CDs and things we sell, plus getting to know more of our members. I will be there on Thursdays from 10-2pm.
I went out with some friends to Mongolian BBQ and I got a plate of food and was able to eat about half of it. It was so tasty! Onions, tofu, veggies, and even iced tea!
After that I went home and took a nap and then went to see Anne & Kalaiah. We hung out and Anne cooked a real nice meal with an awesome smokey seitan that was tasty! She also made a soup which I had two bowls of. Very tasty!
Interesting that my sense of smell has become much more sensitive since I've gone through this. Food is tasting great and I am truly savoring it.

RJ, I'm so glad that you are finding some normalcy again. And especially happy that your senses are still serving you well. Keep feeding the body and mind. I will miss your Thursday shifts since I am struggling through my last year of clinical practice. I have some really great patients so far this semester and I hope I can help to keep them in good health!
One Love,
Diane
PS Zap Mama is really cool -I never knew they were Belgian! I'm trying to score some tickets to Wynton Marsalis for tomorrow night (tho I SHOULD be studying instead). ;)
