I was really bummed about Ricky- he was kinda cute and goofy, but I don't appreciate two-faced jerks who almost get me killed. I guess it worked out in the end though. My aquarium date went well with the 5 boys the Donna so kindly let me borrow! (Donni, Sal, Vic, Cesare, and Vinny) Wonderful lads all of them. We took so many cute pictures and I shared them with the Donna (she's gonna frame the funny one of the boys with the sharks) and they hung out a little longer after so I could demonstrate rope tying! I got all dressed up for my tutorial too, I think they were really excited to learn and caught on quick! It was a really fun night and I'm looking forward to working with them again. 

I got to do some work for the Donna Lavaz recently! Caesar contacted me (poor boy had such a bad cold- I made sure to fix him right up once I got there) and said she needed me to make a delivery. Never would have thought buying a ton of cheese would be my task but hey! I won't complain. Beecher's cheese is the fucking bomb. Anyway, they sent me a sample to try and it was super yummy, so once I made my way over I made sure to get a ton as well as a couple seasonal extras (I'm sure Donna Lavaz likes cozy seasonal stuff? She seems like the type that would make a killer dish with it). Had them text me when the order was complete while I kept an eye on the backroom. It was oddly quiet and I only saw one person exit, but figured getting a better vantage point would be more helpful than waiting around inside. Good thing last contract helped me perfect my climbing! Getting on the roof from the alley was no problem, and going in through the hatch seemed a bit easier than I expected it to be- but I suppose I arrived at the right time. I grabbed the box, hopped in Christine with my huge cheese order and made my way to San Fran (made a stop during my motel stay to pick up fresh ingredients for the miso soup I promised).

Caesar brought me up to the Donna when I got there, who was so happy to see me! Made me feel so warm and fuzzy. She said I did a great job for a first timer, though I did forget to put the tarp back up when I left so I'll have to remember that for next time. She made the best pasta ai formaggi I have had and probably ever will have in my life and I got to play with the boys again during the week! This new job stuff is turning out really well, I'm very grateful for this newfound family.
