Don't you love holidays that you have no idea what they are about, but they involve drinking? Yes, I have reached that fateful point in the evening, the "I love you, man" stage of the evening. I think I had as close to the perfect evening as I could have had tonight. Perfection would have also involved sex, but the evening was pretty damned good...
I had dinner with friends who made me laugh so hard my stomach hurt, and I ended up with hiccups so loud that I made one of the girls go into the coffee shop to get me sugar to make the hiccups go away (which worked, by the way). We talked food, alcohol, travel, art, music and possible future vacation plans for my friend's 40th birthday bash (8 day cruise to Mexico) over great Mexican food. Then we went and had gelato. Mmmmmm. Then we went to the bookstore where I spent insane amounts of money on hardbound books that I bet I won't get around to reading in the next 3 months - but even if I don't, I really enjoyed the bookstore high. On this historic 05/05/05, I just wanted to say that I'm blessed with many wonderful friends, and that the next time I'm feeling sorry for myself, either point me back to this post, or slap me upside the head, or both.
