Mid-week Update
A few things happend over the past few days which I want to remember. Last Friday there was a work event, which started at 3 but my team wasn't able to get out of the office until 5, which was a bummer, but at least we went. When we got there, the rest of the guests (mostly people from Vidal, an agency that my boss used to work at so she knew a lot of people) were finishing up their meals, but our host was very graceful and got us a table and asked the wiater to bring out more meals. Before the food came though, we had some pretty awesome guacamole and split a delicious pitcher of pomegranete margartia between the three of us. Appetizers were good, and for my entree I had the stuffed pork loin. We also ordered a pitcher of avocado margartia, which wasn't as good as I'd heard about. For dessert, there was flan and something else but I totally forgot what it was.
It was about 6:45 by that time and I was properly red in the cheeks, but a small group of us decided to do a shot of Patron. And then we did a second shot.
Thankfully, the rep had arranged a bus to transport us back to Manhattan (the restaurant was in Brooklyn), and we got off super close to my house. Needless to say, I went to sleep early that night.
Last night, there was another event, where we got to see a pre-screening of El Cantante. The movie was okay, but the soundtrack is going to be awesome.
And this morning Entertainment Weekly did a presentation at work. It was really cool, and they pulled out all the stops--they had their president and even one of their editors at the presentation, and food too. My co-worker asked the rep to be put on the comp list, and I was tempted to be put on too, but I think that the address had to be a business address.
