Yummy crib.

We had dinner with old friends the other night. At a wonderful restaurant in D.C. — Kinkead’s. I’ve known Pam since high school — we have a lot of history. Here she is with her husband.
Another, more artisitic view of the couple. I kind of like the swirlies. I think this must have been after the martini. Not sure, actually.
He’s looking a little….well? Silly? But look below – this is how we look to them!
Dinner was fantastic. They treated – evidently dinner cost about the same as the proceeds from the baby furniture we’d lent them to use for their little guys…..
But this guy? Py. His name is Py. He was our server. (Why doesn’t anyone say waiter anymore???) And Py is the asshole who served me regular coffee instead of decaf. Can I prove it? No, I can’t. But I slept about ZERO minutes that night. Even with my Rx to help me sleep. Thanks a lot Py. If I had your phone number (or your address), I’d find a way to thank you personally.
Okay – true confession. This is why I rarely order coffee after a meal. OrI ask the waiter about 15 times if it is really decaf. Give me caffeine after about noon and I’m royally ******, well, you know. A far cry from my college days when a pot of coffee had about the same effect as a glass of water.
Wendy, this is why I have started to ask WAITERS to pour the coffee AT the table for me. I also ask to have my bottled water delivered to the table unopened. They hate me, but, hey! I’m the customer and I suppose I am always right. Just ask my kids!

truth is, decaf has caffeine. And so if you’re sensitive to it…good luck!
(I have done some great blog-writing after having “decaf”!!)
I know, I know! But Cruisin, my Rx is always enough to overpower decaf…(just not caf!)… but I’ve learned my lesson!
Wendy and Andrew — what fun to see you and what a yummy dinner! thanks again for giving us all your kids’ stuff so we could sell it and share the proceeds with you and Bob Kinkhead! (coincidentally, when Kent and I downloaded we both thought the service was a little weak for a $$$$ restaurant — i.e., garlicmashedpotato chasers –and now, well, the decafdebacle just confirms it.) at least the the company was five-star! I hope by now you have caught up on your sleep and can find time to talk to DRM and ask them to please grow faster so everything doesn’t get so worn out – Seth and Eli (honorary Scherers since so many of their things are thusly marked) really need some new clothes! Love you guys XoXo – p
Hey thanks Pam! It was a great time
