Peoples who are planning on going to the GM tonight:

(If everything goes according to plan, i'll be there or in the neighborhood around 7:30. Unless we get in super early (hello iPass!) and decide to go to the hotel first.)

Dan, do you want to ride with us?
Is anyone else coming? Wanna know if we should get there early to get a booth or not...

― Calico (calico), Friday, 16 February 2007 22:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Kevmang I don't think I'm going to make it to you-know-where. Come to the GM tonight!

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Friday, 16 February 2007 22:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm back.

OK, so Jenny's professor said that she wondered if it was an economically viable place to rebuild since it was such a poor place to begin with and it was a drain on the country's resources even before the disaster.

I made the argument that it was culturally a very important place, and home to thousands of people, to which she responded that it's too bad it had to happen, but culture doesn't pay the bills.

I like the chicken. And the shrimp cake.

I'm starving.

Jesse just called me from the Green Mill, annoyed that no one else was there yet.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Saturday, 17 February 2007 02:09 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm not going.

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Saturday, 17 February 2007 02:14 (seventeen years ago) link

you don't go to the green mill at 8:00 unless you're in for the long haul, yo.

ok, so, Jordan's band gives me severe permagrin. There is no way to leave a show with a brass band like that and not feel happy. I said to someone else tonight: you can arrive at almost any other kind of show -- rock, Broadway, puppetry, what have you -- in a sour mood, and leave in pretty much the same mood if you really set your mind to it. Not so with this music. Brass bands force the happy out of you, like leeches. I am a believer in brass.

― Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone (kenan), Saturday, 17 February 2007 08:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Ok, not like leeches at all. I take back the leeches. Leeches are decidedly not happy things. I'm going to go practice my similes now. But I still love Jordan and his band.

Other other woman that was on Check, Please! (not the violinist from Chicago) was A-nnoying.

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Saturday, 17 February 2007 15:55 (seventeen years ago) link

WHY AM I UP SO EARLY?? No matter, I will drink all the espresso.

― Laurel (Laurel), Saturday, 17 February 2007 16:00 (seventeen years ago) link

That's almost a haiku.

― Metrosexual Healing (crunkleJ), Saturday, 17 February 2007 16:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Like I am almost a Japanese poet?

― Laurel (Laurel), Saturday, 17 February 2007 16:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Alright, roommate has officially skipped out on me.

Agreed.

E was great, though. And she's right on about L. Mitchell's. I just ate there this morning, even, and it's fine but it's nothing freaking special. Just an omelette, people, nothing to see here.
