Dinner with the guys
Aug. 2nd, 2006 07:33 amAfter work, Derek (
_decibel_), our resident thespian and Green Lantern-enthusiast, called and asked if I wanted to meet the visiting Bo (
demcub) and Sean (
fedex_cub) for dinner at Universal Grill (our former Mary's).
So after being hit up by one of Cincinnati's finest panhandlers for $4 so he could get some fix-a-flat to fix his car which had his kids in it in 95 degree heat (he needs to get his facts straight before asking, Fix-a-Flat costs at least $8 -- I refused by the way), I met up with Derek, Bo, Sean, Brian (
cincycub) and Chris (and we need to get you an LJ handsome) for a nice early dinner. Good company, good food, and good conversation, dinner doesn't get any better than that. And the waiter was pretty cute too....
I hit the hay kinda early, the week has been full of late nights and early mornings. I'm still a bit of the zombie this morning. Thank heavens for sweet caffeine, elixir of life...
And now a meme copied from

I'm loving "Miss Twinkleton's School for Sensitive Boys" by the Cincinnati Men's Chorus these last few days.
