do prosthetic limbs cost an arm and a leg?
Much of this week was spent chasing after the Woolf children + their older cousin. The older cousin (Jake), despite being 14 and in the midst of his awkward mop-top years, is apparantly a model. This is exciting for him. It is not as exciting for the people he tells repeatedly. On Wednesday, Joshua got into the liquor cabinet. Joshua is 11, but was riled on by Jake who chanted "Jack Daniels! Jack Daniels!" I of course freaked out and made Josh shut the cabinet, but not until after he whipped out a shot glass and announced, "what's this?" Flash forward: Mom comes home and starts telling me about some new restaurant and adds they have good chocolate martinis. I say "ohhhh speaking of....you should really lock your liquor cabinet." Score one for prohibition!
Oooh but speaking of chocolate martinis, I had the most delicious chocolate toffee martini last night, and I am still quite excited by it. I met up with four old Hillard friends/co-workers in the city last night. Despite the fact Elana and I were all excited about our previous plans to go to the super-healthy, sometime vegetarian restaurant Josie's, Hana took us to a cutesy little diner instead. Afterwords, we all went to Gotham City, a comedy club on the East Side. Basically, it was the four of us, a couple of high school kids, and the entire incoming class of Albert Einstein Medical School on their freshmen orientation. Hooray for the plethora of doctor jokes that followed!! All the comics were hysterical, but perhaps this might have had something to do with the aforementioned toffee martini, followed in short succession by the "big apple" martini followed in even shorter succession by...yeah no, that was it. Gotham has a cheap cover charge, and a two drink minimum. For $10 a drink, two was as drunk as I was getting.... Seriously, though....the comics were quite talented. (See headline for prosthetic limb joke.) They were all men, which of course means masturbation and sex jokes. Lots of combining of masturbation and blackout stories. "When the blackout hit, I was masturbating in the dark crying. As I always do." Or something along those lines. Ha. Men.
