Jesse, when were you here and why didn't I know about it?

I was just there for a conference for the weekend, and I couldn't escape my crazy coworkers. Here's a a question: we were staying at the Crown Plaza by the courthouse and whatever, and ended up going to dinner both nights at Italian places on Shrewsbury Street (different places). Could we have done better?

Shrewsbury Street is pretty much the place to go if you want Italian food in Worcester, unless you come to our place. There is a lot of really great food in Worcester. Surprisingly so, although I am still getting to know my way around here. There is a really wonderful Chinese restaurant right near our place. I'm sorry you couldn't get away. Do you remember the names of the restaurants you went to? Did you like the food?

I am obviously an absent-minded cocksucker, as I forgot to wish erika the happiest of birthdays.

All your Mountain Dew, clearly, are belong to me.

I drank red bull and vodka when I went clubbing a couple years ago, entirely because of Plei. I only kind of liked it. Mostly I liked it because of Plei. *g* But it sure as hell made you hyper AND drunk, which was perfect for clubbing.

Now I prefer the more sedate vodka tonic. I suspect I need a secondary drink, though.

Happy Birthday, erika!!!

It isn't some strep mutation, is it?

Nah. Just a really ugly bacteria infection.

Red Bull doesn't make me hyper. Neither does that Sobe energy drink. I got only a few sips through the Mountain Dew offering of the same genre. Too like syrup.

I consume them medicinally, when caffeine may be required to combat a migraine. And then quite often go back to sleep.

Do you remember the names of the restaurants you went to? Did you like the food?

Yeah, we went to Picolo one night, and Porto Bella (? -- right across the street) the other. They were both good. We were going to go to the seafood place along there, but it was way too pricy!

I've only ever had one mouthful of Red Bull. It tastes and smells like children's cough syrup. Blergh. I've never really found a drink that makes me hyper. I do drink many and loads of sugary drinks though. Sometimes three or four bottles of Lucozade a day. So maybe I'm immune or something at this point. Although white wine makes me very very talky for a while and then very very sleepy soon after.

I haven't been to either of those places. Anthony's (also on Shrewsbury St) has good Italian food and I like the Flying Rhino which is on Shrewsbury Street but isn't Italian food. If you need to come back here for business again, e-mail me and I can make you a list of good places to go.
