Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

Brunch and Bach

Breaking News - I totally overdid it this weekend. I called in sick to Angie last weekend for the New Order v. Duran Duran dance off at the Black Cat so when I should have done the same today I couldn't.

A friend of hers from undergrad is in a touring musical group and they were here in DC today performing Bach and Vivaldi. We got there right on time after meeting for brunch. Turns out we should have got there early. Who knew a free concert at the National Academy of Sciences on a Sunday afternoon would fill up? We hung out in the foyer with the 50 other people who underestimated the city's love of classical movements and concertos. They were piping the music so we could at least listen to her friend sing his solo.
We met up with him later and she was able to say hi and catch up.

It was a great afternoon with one of my favorite friends and I am paying for it now. So sleepy and run down....and the damn Sopranos made me cry.
