I think I’m blah about blogging. It’s the heat.
Oz and Mrs. Oz are in Italy, but the thinned crowd at Paseo goes on (and on) to dinners. About a half dozen of us went to the new Prohibition Grill at the gold dome bank and it was a mixed review with the Bookemdano wanting the 5-0h to clamp down on the Reuben he couldn’t eat. It’s a pleasant enough place for a drink and I like the staff and it’s good to see some old friends there.
I have an extremely high regard for Ernesto Sanchez, but I wasn’t thrilled with his work at JRB on First Friday. Too brown, he wrote idiotically.
tonight, Sugar Free All Stars opened for Congratulations from Denton, TX, at Sauced!, but there were very few souls there to be (wind)blown away.
I’ve been keeping busy at the office and had an honest-to-goodness evidentiary hearing before a judge this morning. Got most of what I wanted for my client and stood up to a woman atty who has been trying to bully and goad me. She got much more conciliatory after the hearing, I may say.
Mostly, I’ve been reading blogs because other people’s lives seem more interesting than mine at the moment. I’m rivited by the idea of “abstinence panties” and my grand-nephew’s 3 month photos and the continuing drama of messy homes.
I noticed James Carville said he, too, thought Al Gore should be asked by Obama to take the Veep spot. I also hope for other names, like maybe Bill Gates, Stephen Jobs or Bloomberg of NYC. A lot of people are writing about Joe Biden, but I can’t see two plagiarists on the Dem ticket.
Hillary might get the Veep nod just by default. Everyone else seems diminished by her presence on the stage.
Saw a really really terrifficc movie: The Fall. Little indie film at Quail Springs. Just beautiful to watch. Very very imaginative tableaus, quite colorful and obviously influenced by Kirusawa. A child actor that charmed me. I very highly recommend this movie to anyone not insisting on gratuitous nudity or car chases or things that blow up.
One of the Sauced! cyclists took a 40-foot fall after being hit by a car. No insurance of course. Drop some coin into one of the jars around, if you please. The guy was in surgery today — maxilofacial to repair his face and the 36 skull fractures.
Opened Mom’s pool last weekend and The Gary says his will open next weekend or so. It’s that time of year. There have been some awesome gatherings around Gary’s pool in past summers and I’m looking forward to more this year.
MindOverMary indicates there’s an OKC trip in our future. C’mon, honey! We can’t wait to have you home for awhile. The guys are already lining up to kiss your … face.
Just wanted you to know I actually have a life and I’m pretty much too busy living it to have time for blogging. Good times.
Blogblah
P.S. I note with disgust that Lyric has chosen “The Sound of Music” for this summer season.
