So...I'm running on barely over five hours sleep. It was important that I drop into a just-divorced friend's holiday open house last night, and I'm glad I did it, but that kept me up way later than is desirable on the night before a matinee. But hey. Sometimes that's what we do.
This evening after the show my lovely housemates and I will partake of a birthday dinner at our one and only favorite Chinese jernt here in town. It's the last remaining "real" sit-down Chinese restaurant in the area. Kristi's family went there for many years, and when we walk in we get the best treatment. Sadly, most of the business is takeout, and I don't believe I've ever enjoyed a nice crowd in there. Not that I go at the right times. But the food and service are marvelous and it's always a wonderful throwback to a better past which was populated with such wonderful Chinese places.
