Dinner at teh neighbors
holyoutlaw and juliebata invited Denys and me over for dinner, so we walked to the center of the universe yesterday evening, critiquing the neighborhood along the way. (The traffic calming devices on 36th have not calmed the traffic. The old Fremont News space has been taken over by Sonic Boom's vinyl section. The old Empty Space Theater space is still empty.) Luke and Julie's apartment was neat as a pin, showing no sign of the truckloads of stuff we helped to move in there whenever it was we did that. Luke's upcoming photography show was stowed mostly in the bedroom, wrapped in plain brown paper.
Dinner was a lovely green salad with cranberries and blue cheese, followed by tasty chicken tikki masala, and then, to really distend the carpet python, a delicious extra-chocolatey chocolate cake from Simply Desserts. I'm still digesting twelve hours later! Julie showed us strange musical videos with singing badgers and mushrooms, lions and tigers (and one dead zebra) in Kenya, and that anime girl twirling a leek that Luke linked to recently. We looked at Alaska-cruise travel brochures and scary pictures of Julie wearing polyester as a child. (There are no photos that I know of showing me in my powder blue leisure suit in 1977.) A wonderful dinner, and great audio-visual aids and yikkety-yak. Denys and I could barely roll up the hill afterwards.
Thanks, neighbors!
