Le Cafe Michi, good sushi

Yesterday at work, girl_handsacrossamericahethos did not bring her lunch, and she wanted to head out for something to eat. I was just going to have my protein shake, (I was doing so well with them ), but I told her that I could go for Indian, or Japanese (I should not have said that smile_embaressed, and she jumped at the opening ). She said that she knows of a really good sushi place in Scarborough ( east part of Toronto ) called Le Cafe Michi, and it has a really good chirashi bowl. I had some doubts about that statement, I have not had a good chirashi bowl, since "Sushi House" (you will have to ask girl_handsacrossamericahethos about that place). So three of us from work went out to this place. The other co-worker that came with us, lived in Japan for a number of years, and speaks fluent Japanese. He has also said that he has not found a good Sushi restaurant in Toronto, since he has moved to Canada. I told him that Vancouver and Toronto, have the best sushi, outside of Japan, and girl_handsacrossamericahethos had told him about some good places he should try out, however he has not had the time to try them out yet. So this was the first time that he was going to try one of hethos suggestions.

Well all I can say is thank you girl_handsacrossamericahethos, the chirashi bowl was so good. If you like Japanese food you have to try this place. the only thing is that it was a little pricy; $28 for the chhirashi bowl, and the service for us was a bit slow (we got back after 2pm smile_embaressed). Also our other co-worker that was with us, said that it was so good too. We all ordered the same thing.

What to do?

God, I’m finding it so hard to concentrate today, it is now becoming a big problem for me. I need to find something (some method, or some drug ) that will help me focus on one task at a time. I tried an antidepressant last year sometime, but I could not live with the side effects. Has anyone out there had this problem, and has found a way to deal with it? I doing this quick entry, just because I can’t focus on the work that I should be doing, or maybe it’s because I’m a bit under the weather today. Oh well back to work.

On another note, I have stopped using “Slim Fast”; I’m now trying a new meal replacement shake, called Myoplex Original. It dose not taste as good as Slim Fast however it is better for you. Also I have hit 175lbs. now I just have to keep myself under that for my upcoming cruise (witch will be hard).

Finally got into CORA’S for breakfast

We have been trying to find new restaurants in Markham for a long time, so when we saw a new restaurant opening up, we could not wait. The first time we want to go there, it was not open yet; the second time, we found out the place closes at 3pm, it was 3:30pm, well the place is call CORA’S breakfast-lunch. The third time, we went was this Saturday, and the lineup was out the door, I guess there are a lot of other people that want a new type of restaurant in Markham; I did not want to wait. Sunday we got up and got there for 8am, and this time we got in, but there were a lot of people there already. They are famous for their crepes and fruit plates, and was it worth the wait? I would say so, it was good, but it was a bit costly.

The year went by so fast, and also slow, but over all it was a good year.
• Friends got married
• Dan and I found ourselves on TV, We were on the show the Biggest Loser

• Brother got engaged
• Had a lot of big family get-togethers (really nice).
• Got back into playing poker.
• Started to read comic books again, and I hope it will spark my interest in art soon

The work year was not so good, however, there now have been some changes at work, and I hope things will now get better. One of my New Years resolutions will be to work harder in and outside of work, with any task I’m giving.

Ok now for some other New Year resolutions.
• The main thing I need to do is get organized; organized will all aspects of my life. I just don’t know were to start, or how, but that is my main goal.
• Save more money, and try not to spend so much at lunch.
• Continue with the Gym, and try to push myself harder. (Need to lose 30lbs)
• Do more reading, and less TV watching. (lol, I hope)
• Try and do a blog entry at least 3 times a week.
Hmm.. .there is not much more I want to change. I’m happy with my life right now, and looking forward to 2007. Just sad that this is the end of my time off work, I have to go back in tomorrow, as do most of us.

Now I’m going to go and play my new Naruto video game. “Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2” I’m loving this game, and I want the new ones that are out in Japan.

oh one last thing, my internet speed went up, still not good, but better.
