a quickie blog...

don't rush for a cigarette afterwards though. i have yet to reach the Kama Sutra levels of blogging...

i just wanna see how much i can blog in about ten or fifteen minutes. say, isn't that how long it takes most guys for certain things? you know what i mean...

a recap of the last two days:

didn't make the time to go to Taste on monday. went to Home Depot and got some paint stuff (lois has a huge 1926 boiler in her basement that's easier and cheaper to keep than risk asbestos removal), a really pretty dark purple mum, no waste wild bird food, and some other assorted goods that would just have your eyes rolling or drooping.

nothing really exciting though. that night, we made some burgers and veggies. lois was really craving the veggies because the trip to texas was pretty much devoid of the veggie variety that we ingest here. i know i feel clogged sometimes on texas trips ;)

yesterday was good and bad... for the good, i got to hang out with my friend, Cindy (the one with the Tom Hanks story). she showed up in her new Toyota Corolla and let me drive it while we went for lunch, visited a mutual friend, and went grocery shopping.

lunch was at Heidi's Brooklyn Deli, which just opened a fourth location about a half mile from Lolis' house. really high quality deli meat! i had the Ressler's Reuben, which has pastrami instead of the typical corned beef. mmmm. there's nothing like a good pastrami sandwich. well, rare roast beef is a fave of mine too... one small note though, skip the coleslaw and potato salad...not very good...get chips with yer sandwich.

hanging out with cindy was great fun, as usual. unfortunately, the day was shitty too. i had spaced the fact that the street sweeper comes by the first tuesday of every month between April and November. and on lolis' street, you get ticketed if you're parked on the west side on street sweepin' day. so, guess who decided to throw $20 out the window...yep. that's me, the guy banging his head against his steering wheel... it just sucks because on my street, there's no penalty if you're parked when the street sweeper comes by. argh.

well, my ten minutes are up. did you hafta turn the music up really loud? must NOT fall ASLEEP reading this blogpile...
