Lunch at Il Fornaio, Palo Alto. I enjoyed a marvelous lunch with Wilma this afternoon. It was unseasonably crisp and cold in Palo Alto, but we were tucked away inside and enjoyed Italian 'comfort food', with a little splurge on some drinks to toast to what's up next. I had a Bellini (peach juice & white wine blend).

I met Paul at Standford shopping mall and did a little pre-trip gift shopping. (Yes, I'm off to Japan next week!)

I also had some fun with my new roommate -- my iRobot Roomba. What a cute creature! He took care of all those dust bunnies under the bed while I was reading a book... wow!
