I am seriously thinking "You know, we're already married. Do I HAVE to have a wedding party"

I think the question is, how many friends and/or family do you have who will be sad and/or upset if you don't, and to what extent? And to what extent do you care about that. Because I don't think the party is actually about you -- I think it's actually about everyone else, which is why they are invited!

Matt, if you want to try a really good seafood place, go to the Blue Fish in midtown (corner of Cooper & Young). Everything I've eaten there pretty much rocks. Of course, my sister owns the place, but still.

eta: Oh! And it's the sister you met when we had drinks at the Peabody that night!

All good questions, and I haven't talked about it with Dan yet. I'm just musing.

I don't think many -- if any -- of my friends would be sad. Most of the super close ones were at the courthouse shindig.

My fam was there too; not sure about Dan's. He is so laissez-faire though, I really can't suss out if he has family that truly cares, or if he would just be assuming.

Just something to think about.

Ah, ita, it sucks that you're that miserable! I feel so bad for you!

3 weeks for a restaurant to close? Wow, that's...impressive.

Oh man, ita, I want to see that plaid/polka outfit! I'm sorry the week has been so sucky. You push so hard through your medical conditions...

I think it takes spectacularly bad business planning to start a new restaurant without enough operating capital to stay open more than three weeks.

I remember a restaurant near North Station in Boston that I'm pretty sure never actually opened, even though all the renovations and redesign had been done on the space. I walked past it ever day as it was being set up, but I can't remember it ever being opened.

I do remember they were an off-shoot of a place in the 'burbs that got into BIG trouble for overserving people who later got in accidents, so maybe the fines and litigation did them both in.

Does she own The Reef that's now replaced it? I ate at Blue Fish once during the street fair (and it was yummy), but the dinner prices generally kept me away.

There was a restaurant in downtown Evanston that served breakfast cereal. I think they were open very briefly but then they were closed down because they didn't have the proper license (or maybe it was a health-code violation). They never reopened.

I saw them!! I thought about going in. It looked neat. I don't remember when that was (a business trip maybe?). But then I kinda realized there was no point in spending as much as a box of breakfast cereal on...one bowl. And i think I was probably headed somewhere else to eat.

I'm just now watching last night's GA.

Bailey made me cry.
