Evenings are nice

(OK, you can all relax now. I have decided what to wear for Halloween.)


Last night, I had another one of those relaxing, pleasant evenings. The roomate(s) and I had a delicious dinner of pasta and white wine and then we retired to the couch for a competitive game of Scrabble (which is built into the new coffee table), while listening to the new Ray Charles CD - the movie soundtrack.

And Friday night was another fun outing in the city. We went to explore the evening life of the Marina. (I love driving trough the Broadway tunnel!) There were lots of posh shops of course, and I was beside myself with glee to discover the Paper Source store! We popped in for a quick look just before they closed. We had dinner sitting at the counter at Johnny Rocket's. Andrew refused to use the ketchup becuase the waitress had made a smiley face with it in the tray. After dinner we took a quick lap through Pottery Barn and peered through the windows of one of those old 1950's style middle schools on our slow stroll back to the car. 'Twas lovely.

On Saturday, I lingered at the apartment as long as I dared, not wanting to face the fact that my vacation in the city was over. I watched Identity, which was pretty good with all the plot twists, and I made three trips to pack all my stuff in the car. And finally I left. Later that night I watched Mean Girls over at my parents house. It was funnier than your usual teen movie, but not as original as I expected it to be.
