What a beautiful day! It's breezy, sunny, blue sky and little white puffy clouds... the house is vacuumed and the turtle tank is clean, and the cat has been given treats and is currently splattered in a sunbeam. K has gone to his place to set up the grill. All is right with the world. Well, my world, anyway.

I have dubbed K a petherder extraordinaire. To amuse him and the cat, I let the turtles explore the kitchen floor while I cleaned their tank this morning; K was diligent in keeping them out from under the stove, nudging them in other directions with his feet. He was also very good at keeping the cat away from the basement door when I had to go downstairs. "Be intimidating," I told him.

"I am intimidating," he said, and proceeded to make high beeping sounds as he shooed the cat under the table.

We took our mothers to see My Fair Lady at Wolf Trap on Saturday; both of them really like that particular musical. Great production -- gorgeous voices of course, energetic performance, very pretty sets. Bit obvious that a bunch of the dancers were former Rockettes, but that's not always a bad thing.

After the show we decided to have dinner out at the Todai in Fairfax. Excellent sushi buffet, something like $25 for all-you-can-eat of vast amounts of sushi, sashimi salads, seafood cooked and raw, teriyaki barbecues and tempura, plus this huge fruit/dessert bar. I'm still stuffed, 24 hours later.

Along the way, we kept an eye out for someplace relatively reasonable to fill up the minivan. At one point K drove past an Exxon on Chain Bridge Road. "$2.96 per gallon," he said. "That's expensive."

Barely ten seconds later: "Wait! That's under $3! That's cheap!"

Really, it's hard to keep up with events these days.
