Dinner

It's Saturday and it will be a Shannon day for us.  Will pick her up around 5 and bring her for her usual overnight.  We will do the usual, eat the usual and watch the usual.  This routine really makes her happy.  Her old people friends will be thrilled to see her and listen to her tales. 

So, went to dinner with Katey last evening.  She and I rarely go out alone and chat.  We reminisced about her life and where it is headed and laughed about the unfortunate traits I gave her namely a lack of grace and the ability to be overwhelmed by our emotions.  We both took stock in her mother's concrete thinking that profoundly affects us both in positive ways. We both ate waaaaay  too much as it is easy to do with food you really like.  The venue was Mexican eats at El Patio in town which has recently reopened.  The food was fast and tasty with the servers running in the aisles.  If you are from around Berkley, give them a try.

Jordy Mott is one of my apartment buddies and is of an old NYC family dating back to the 1700's.  Mott Street in Chinatown is named after his family.  He is pleasant and chatty full of stories to regale us with.  He fell prey to what happens to many of us recently, kissing the concrete from un even sidewalks.  I too am in this club as mentioned many times before.

He is sporting a new black eye and a new story about a jealous husband.  But is hale and hearty after the incident at 82. His granddaughter is a bronze medalist swimmer from the last Olympics.  

This tome is becoming a chronicle of my life's events with some intermittent commentary on current events.  Actually it's kind of fun, so I will keep it up.

Don't get your toupee blown off today, supposed to have 40 mph winds in the afternoon.

all for now

stay safe
