A Sneaky Soda Vignette
OK, gotta tell another little vignette.
So, last night my sister and I were at a little concert[*], at a teeny little bar/dinner/performance space in Hollywood. I had previously made dinner reservations, 'cause if you do you get to sit much closer to the stage (in a place that's already teeny, I know, but, hey, I really like to be up close).
So, anyway, we had to buy dinners and have something to drink. We were having nonalcoholic stuff, so my sister got coffee and I got my usual Diet Coke. Of course I couldn't help but bitch about being in a bar where the Diet Coke would show up in a skinny little glass and not have any refills. Duh. A boring refrain, but it always bugs me, so I have to at least bitch a little.
So, my sister said I should sneak in a flask of Diet Coke, and slip in my own refills!!! Hee hee hee, that still makes me laugh as I write this! Sneaking nonalcoholic stuff in a flask into a bar -- so perfect! :)
[*] a FAAAAABULOUS show with BOTH Jill Sobule and Julia Sweeney -- performing together! Alternating related songs and stories. Wow, so fantastic! Just found out they're gonna be performing together at TAM5 in January too -- really cool!
