Old School Rap/Hip Hop

is how you'll hear Leina describe her favorite type of music. Last weekend she was reminiscing about Da Brat. She'll toss around the acronyms ABC and BBD when describing the type of music she likes in a club if you're going to get her to dance.

Imagine her despair upon learning that she will be missing BBD, Johnny Gill, and SWV who are playing a show in Oakland this weekend! Once notified of this tragedy, Leina broke down with "I get so weak in the knees I can hardly speak" and a few more lines of that classic song.

Leina is spending the week in Detroit Rock City, the home of much great music and the first half of the title of that classic Boyz II Men song. She'll be celebrating Dominic's 1 year birthday. It is true Leina already celebrated it in Marin County a month or so ago, but she's doing it again--this time on the real birthday. She plans on bringing back Middle Eastern bread as gifts upon returning Monday.
