I am Sushi Monster.

For my birthday, we needed to be at the URMC Strong Memorial Hospital. After which we headed to California Rollin' for some birthday... well, rolls.
It was fantastic. Had too much fun eating maki(s) with NotSoTwistedNeo.
We then drove to Syracuse to start our 'early' weekend.
We have Civil War on Saturday.

FYI, my husband calls me Sushi Monster.
