Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Tonight Matt is playing at t local restaurant from 6 to 10. possibly he will join the other band from 10 to 12. I am eating at 6 with friends at the restaurant, not sure how I will make it to midnight.

Dinner should be very good - NYE menu isn't up on their site, but the normal dinner menu is up
Oh, I'm not supposed to drink at all because of my cholesterol meds, Laura. I'll break the doctor's orders for one glass of dessert wine to mark the occasion, but there will be no tipsiness from that, let alone a repeat of last year's rusty nail/absinthe/goldschläger liver mangling.
I'm actually driving to Racine for a super swanky dinner party tonight. In fact, I need to shower and put on clothes and leave v. soon for that party. I made crab cheesecake and shrimp phyllo cups. I was designated the fish course. Seafood works, right?
I'm at the alltel place trying to sort my billing issues. Looks like they are giving me new numbers. WTF. They gave me prepaid numbers and now they need to remedy that so I can get any sort of customer service. Feh.

Scatterbrained packing question: my quart bag in my carry-on? Zip TOP or is zipLOCK okay? Guess which ones we have at the house.
TSA says zip-top, but I'm guessing zip-lock is fine. I've used ziplock and been fine.
No problem, Jilli.
Reading menus is making me hungry.
Just be careful out there and keep watch for the wackos. That would be a daily request.
This time of year we have way more than our fair share of bad tourist drivers. I dislike any driving right now.
I'm going to a friend's party in the suburbs tonight and trying not to be bitter that he met some girl at the gym over the summer and now they are engaged.
And then going to see this guy:
to ring in the New Year.
And not drinking ALL the champagne like last year and so not being super hung over for my friends' New Year's Day brunch tomorrow.
Jilli, don't worry -- "zip-top" is just genericspeak for Ziplock. You hear it all the time on the Food Network too.
mac and I are heading over to neighborhood dinner party. I am helping the 2 kids there make 2 gingerbread houses from kits - then there will be mellow eating and sitting about. and a 5 min walk home.
