Hey is that our waiter..
2003-01-10

Hmmm, I though quitting drinking was supposed to make me feel better, not worse. Then why do I have a hang over this morning? Oh yeah the damn migrane... It is kind of like a dull pounding today. It fuzzes the mind. On the way to my usual coffee on the way in I some how managed to take the wrong exit and ended up at the state prison. Gee I hope that isn't an omen...

I crashed out upon arrival at home yesterday after self administering a good dose of potent drugs. Better living through chemistry. By the time M.E. got home, I was at least fuctional, so we headed out for dinner and the boat show.

The new restaurant was beautiful. It took these people two years to build it so I guess it should be. The food was wonderful but the service was the most screwed up I've ever seen. We had two hosts, three waitresses and two guys which sort of floated around and did things undefined. We moved seats once, the place was half empty and they sat us on this aisle between the bar and the dining room that had more traffic than route 95. Whats up with that? I'm sure it will settle down, eventually....

The boat show was as expected, lame. We did managed to score free parking and free tickets and since we weren't drinking, the only cost was the two for $15 dollar sunglasses that M.E. insisted we buy (after trying on every pair, UGH!!!). They had only 5 sailboats over 33 feet and we only went on three of them. No I did not buy one.

We managed to bump into the woman who has financed my last 4 boats and she is going to look at the numbers to see if it makes sense to re-fi. Talked to a guy about re-upholstering the cushions in the main cabin, and ran into Neil, Johnny the chin, Mo and Johnny O. O was working the show and is the one who got us the free tickets. I also mwt my plumber and the little weasel from my last company who drove it into the ground. We did not chit chat.

We got home by 8:30 and arrived just in time to find puppy eating my new glasses. He scratched one lens and ate one ear piece, He is officially on my shit list and knows it. He kept trying to kiss up all night, but I am not easily swayed. Well... Ok I am but I have to at least look tough right? Sigh...

Tonight is the special "surprise" birthday party for M.E., Neil and Claudette at the club that they are making me throw. I picked up a big cake and a card, and also got year three of the Sopranos on sale for M.E. Tomorrow for her official birthday she wants to go to the indian casino for high stakes bingo. Hmm, can you die from migranes? One can only hope.....
