good weekend? fuck yes good weekend

[rone]

2wanda and i went to Dishdash yesterday to have lunch with the lovely madmerle and the irrepressible drieuxster.  drieux is entertaining and educational.  He also won't shut up.  The three normal people had a pleasant conversation during the silent gaps while drieux was swallowing.  Three hours later, we managed to escape by distracting him with what i assured him was a small swatch of fabric from Barry Goldwater's favorite suit, in exchange for which madmerle gave us a bottle of Smoking Loon 2005 Syrah.

That evening, we went to thib_gc's birthday party, and we picked up sandollar17 so she wouldn't have to walk there in the rain.  A fabulous time was had, and much wine was drunk; someone brought a bottle of Ravenswood 1996 Zinfandel, which i thought might be past its prime, but my fears turned out to be unfounded.  We donated our bottle of Dunnewood 1997 Charbono Port to the cause.

Kim prepared a feast today for her knitting circle; sandollar17 came, and so did amywithani and racerxmachina, and somehow palecur snuck along, so we played Magic: The Gathering with Type P decks as i looked over my shoulder in case work reared its ugly head.  And now, it's time to get to bed.

For impolite Double Header, Try mashing Gary Cooper in Ayn Rand's "FountainHead" with the fun filled excitement of Peter O'Toole in "stunt Man"...

Ah yes, I still haven't quite recuperated from that one...

Is Not Just Job, Is Adventure....

Think of it as Being All The You Can Be - and that with a chance to be a greater War Hero than the rest of the fighting 101st Keyboardists...
