this is a post about mike

There you go, Mike. Happy? Earlier today we went to Tartine for some sandwiches and coffee. After a failed attempt to get soft serve ice cream at Bi-Rite, we took the J downtown so Mike could buy a pair of Oliver Peoples sunglasses at Barney's. I'm on a shopping ban until I finish cleaning out my closet so I forced myself to stay away from the 60% off shoe section... hardest thing ever. Around this time I usually save up enough money for a special shoe purchase (a couple months ago it was that pair of Miu Miu clogs) but I can't really do that at the moment since I'm in the process of starting a new part of my life after graduating. After Barney's we ended up at Bastille where I watched Brent buy a Flippa K shirt and oversized red sweater. If you're in the city and haven't been there yet you should check it out, they have a pretty good selection of Fjallraven backpacks. I almost bought a mini kanken in my favorite shade of bright green but ughhhhhhhhh. Maybe I'll go back later.

Well I guess this wasn't really about Mike but hey, isn't that picture enough? We like to go to Taco Bell together and when he's playing World of Warcraft he'll buy me a burrito from Papalote if I go pick it up for us. Sometimes we get into fights about who gets to spend time with Brent but in the end we always make up...

I was at Tartine today too, but passed on waiting in line because it was nearly two blocks long! And I also walked by Bastille and thought it looked cute. Too bad I didn't see you :)

If you don't mind me saying this--pardon me if you do--Mike is kinda a cutie. Great shot with the coffee cup.

And sandwiches and coffee...mmm. My mouth is watering right now.

ahh World Of Warcraft ... my brother, step-father and fiancé all play horde.
I love your posts, but they taunt me now I'm on a new healthy eating plan to lose the baby weight I gained last year.

haha, for the horde.
i would probably end this with my toon name and server but i'm kind of ashamed at both my lack of gear and server (instead of just being ashamed of my server)

Tartine is so awesome. I've only been once, but their banana walnut bread was to die for. I want to try their savory food!
