Kim and I had a lovely dinner together. We talked and told stories. She winced at the woman behind me who was chewing with her mouth open and smacking her lips. I even hear she was sucking the food off her fingers. Disgusting.
We finally drank the wine that I got from a colleague for christmas. It was well worth the wait.
I know Kim is thinking of ways around the TV ban, but I am loving the quality time. I finally got a blog up and running on our site and I am actually updating it frequently (thus this post). I figured out how to get MySQL set up on the site, too!
I’m hoping for a rousing game of backgammon to complete the night, but it is looking like the NYT crosswords will win out.
1/6 of the way through the month…we can do this!

You are kind…we actually drank the “replacement” of the bottle of wine you got for Christmas. I seem to remember the holy hell I received for drinking the original (by accident) while you were in Chicago. It was a lovely dinner. If we do this every night, I’ll make it through (but, we’ll have to delay retirement for a year $$$)
Hysterical!
