Provence

Oh, but the food at Provence was fantastic, we all had the hanger steak and potatoes/pomme frites.

D'Raymonds
Linda and family were in town to bring Katie to RPI. Such a smart girl! So we went to our regular place - It's always good, love the signature fried dough but didn't think the veal parm was that good...I am squeamish about veal anyway, so that's the last time for me. Was so great to see my BFF, and wow, she is so skinny now. I wouldn't consider that surgery, and I'm not a candidate anyway, but, what a difference it made for her.

Last Day at Camp
It's been an interesting summer. Some great times and some not so great times.
One thing I know is that I will not miss this rooster going off every morning at sunrise.

Last Night at the Lobster - Stewart O'Nan

I liked it well enough for a few hours. I don't think it has much that will stick with me though.
That Old Cape Magic - Richard Russo

well, if I wanted that, I'd get audio books-right???
Richard Russo is the best at characters - they are rich and layered and real. I liked this book, a re-evaluation of where you are in life, but everything pales when compared to Bridge of Sighs.

Winter's Bone at the Spectrum
C and I saw 'Winter's Bone' at the Spectrum. Jennifer Lawrence is definitely the actress to watch, and this really was a gritty movie. Yes, it was as good as the reviews said. But people: if you are having a coughing problem, please stay home.

omg kill me now OR bad date with the Hess guy

I'll be back in town on Friday. Want to go see the Figgs? OK, he says he would "Love" that. I even sent youtube links of the figgs....sure, love it! 2 days before, he says George Thoroughgood is at the Egg, wanna do that instead. (uhhh, no.) but I say, sure, that'd be ok too. At the time I was thinking it wasn't a big deal. (HELLO?) So Friday comes, I meet him, we have a beer. He doesn't want to go to the Egg either, he's tired. well...We're downtown, it's First Friday art night....so let's do that instead. Walk around Center Square, go to some galleries on Lark Street. Maybe he'll buy a painting for his new apartment that he just moved into that day. $400. Pretentious? Whatever. We have a glass of delicious Pinot Noir at Elda's. Say goodnight, nice to meet you. bye.
The entire time he talked about his ex-wife...they are best friends (oh, did I already mention that???) and they talk on the phone every day. He lived in a hotel for a year (?) and she still does his laundry. Hey, who am I to judge that? But no attraction, he is a little super white conservative guy...not for me.
And I ended up pissed that I missed the Figgs. There's my lesson. Do my own thing and be happy.
