Today was pretty low-key, for a Friday. We had dinner with T, an old friend who is at loose ends while his girlfriend is working nights. I learned that it's not possible to overeat Chinese food. It doesn't matter how much you pack in your face, because you truly will be hungry again in a couple of hours. Is it completely free of calories or vitamins or fiber or anything that indicates you have eaten? Afterwards we went to see "Sum of All Fears." I usually hate these politico-thrillers but the combination of Ben Affleck and Morgan Freeman was compelling. This is a spooky spooky movie and it will give me nightmares; maybe not tonight, but soon. What I wouldn't give right now for a Care Bears or Strawberry Shortcake marathon.
Yikes.
Yikes.
