every day's a new dumb adventure
Making new pals at the deli
After an evening at 826 (my young reporter is writing about animals with prosthetics) I made my way home and searched for dinner along the way. I ended up being lured into bi-rite where I had dessert first. Actually I had one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten: bi-rite vanilla ice cream (complete with vanilla bean specks) drizzled with blood orange olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt. It was like a grassy dreamsicle and was heavenly. I didn't really want to ruin that flavor profile, but knew I needed something more substantial. I ended up stopping at rossi's deli (one of my neighborhood faves) and grabbing a turkey sandwich. While there my new pal said he'd read my palm. I told him sure and he said that it said I was going to have a turkey sandwich soon. Gee, how'd he do that?

That's that (happy bday leslie!)
This evening my pal Leslie parked herself at 15 romolo for birthday
drinks. I was going to go straight afterwork but was gross from the
gym (that makes I three times this week folks). Luckily Leslie planned
on being there from six to midnight, so there was time. And in a
surprising twist, even Randall agreed that going later was better than
earlier. So we joined her and the rest of the folks on the 10pm shift
(hey Marc!) for super great crafted drinks. Seriously the folks at 15
romolo made some cracking delicious drinks. That or they stepped up
their game just for Leslie.
While there I also ordered a that's that. It's romolo's version of an
it's it (homemade oatmeal cookie sandwich with Humphrey slocombe
walnut ice cream all dipped in chocolate). It was all that, but sadly
there were raisins in there and that ruined it for me. Leslie however,
she likes raisins in her cookies so I assume they knew that and left
them in just for her.
Happy bday Leslie!

i'm not above funeral crashing.
this evening my beginning improv class reached a graduation point, which meant we put on a show. it was a bit ridiculous. we'd only been practicing for five weeks, but it was fun. in fact it was way more fun than i anticipated, and not as painful as i thought it would be either. if you're wondering why i didn't remind you about the show, let's just say that i was worried it was going to be a flop.
but it wasn't. or at least it didn't feel like it. the folks that were there laughed, and for the most part it was a har har time. thanks for melissa, nicole, dk, and meegan who came out to point and mock. randall too, even if he did get in trouble for being on his iphone.
and for those of you who wish you were there, here you go. this is a wild lines game where we interact in a scene (in this case a funeral), but randomly have to say these lines we pull from our pockets. the lines are tweets our instructor put down for us, we had no idea what they were going to be.
On a top secret mission
Today dk wanted to know if I could escort her to the ferry buikding at lunch. She was on a mission to buy cute lil' sweets for miss katie sugz's birthday tea party.
After debating for too long on food choices, we finally made our way back, mission accomplished.
Ps. I was cool enough to join on the mission but not cool enough to be invited to the cute party. I see how it goes.
Pps. Sorry miette but those rose flower old lady perfume flavored meringues are terrible. That did not however, stop me from making everyone else try them.
Ppps. Tonight anneh and i are going to prove that two olds equals young. See you at bottom of the hill for jens!
does this look like a reject?
this morning a little wrapped cookie on a stick was waiting for me on my desk. i didn't know who it was from, but when i found out i felt like a fool. of course it was from angelica. she is the queen of cute things and thoughtful gifts.
she is also the queen of letting you know of a good bargain. so it should come as no surprise that as soon as i told her thanks, she told me that it was one of the "rejects." you know, no offense. not that i would have taken any. besides it tasted great, i didn't get a hint of reject at all.
ps. thanks for the dinner samshrew!
randall wanted me to name this post "TGIF"
i told him no, but then i couldn't really argue it. i mean i really was thankful that it was friday. i'm spent.
*insert witty paragraph about having lunch with april & annie (congrats on the new job apes!), cupcakes at work, the last beer o'clock of 2008, holiday shopping and half naked mannequins, an uneventful taxi ride home, and how i am looking forward to sleeping in here *
