What we've been up to

Last week some of Jason's friends got tickets to the Knicks vs Mavericks game. Luckily, one of their flights got delayed so I got to go in his place. Just me Jason and two of his law school buddies (I'm known in the law school crowd as "the wife").
The game wasn't that exciting and are seats weren't that great but going to a Knicks game is a whole new experience. First of all (as Kelli previously blogged) the fans booed the contestants who were trying to win prizes during the time-outs, and I don't mean a simple boo, it's the whole stadium booing the guy who is air balling every shot. My favorite, of course, is the celebrity sightings. Celebrities can be seen every night of the week at the garden, unlike Jazz games, when the only time a celebrity can be seen is during the finals. There was the regular Spike Lee, and several others that aren't cool enough to be named (I didn't know them, so they can't be that cool) but the favorite of the night was Natalie Portman, they showed her on the jumbo-tron while playing the sound track to Star Wars. Even though are seats were high we had our trusty binoculars to help us spot the stars.
This weekend we went to Jason's favorite pizza place and then to a crazy little restaurant called Max Brenner: Chocolate by the bald man, where everything is chocolate. When you walk in the first thing that comes to mind is Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Okay, there's no chocolate river, but there's plenty of chocolate. So we shared the fondue for two, which includes a grill to toast the marshmallows, and by the end we were ready for bed. It's so fun, each week we hear about these fun little hot spots and then we have to run out and try them.
Other than eating we've been hard at work and school. Some don't believe that Jason's office is the floor so I've posted a picture to prove it. He's began the finals madness, and this is where he will stay until the middle of May (that's kind of catchy). Notice he has to have his papers spread over half of the apartment. Believe my I try to straighten them but it doesn't work.
While Jason's hard at work I've started a little project of my own. I'm attempting to make a quilt all by myself, without my mother's guidance. The one thing I love about piecing a quilt is first picking out all the fabrics and then watching them change as you piece it all together. You have one idea of how it's going to look and then it turns into something completely different. Let's just hope this turns out good. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
