Best weekend in a while. Felt... normal. Like normal used to be.

just saw transformers (the REAL one) on the big screen. AWESOME.

Adegra

"This is a nice respite from chain hell in the immediate downtown area of Silver Spring. The food is nice...the only disappointment I had was a very bland yet remarkably greasy flatbread. I'm a big fan of both the sweet potato fries and the eggplant fries - good stuff. The wine selection is quite good...I'm hardly an expert on the subject, but I've never had a bad bottle here. Prices by the glass and bottle are reasonable, and they have a special on Saturday nights - $35 for two entrees, an appetizer, and a bottle wine.

I'm slightly sad, however, because I haven't seen (or heard) my favorite Adega employee in quite some time. He is (or was) their official Number Calling Guy and had an absolute perfect carnival barker voice. It was shocking to see such a diminutive guy (five foot six, at best) bust out such an authoritative bellow. Now they have those stupid vibrating thingies to let you know when your food's ready. Damn you, cruel technology. Another step closer to the robot takeover. We're all doomed."


Review from Yelp.com.

(I'm 5'4", for the record.)

Just had my first arab food since being home. Falafel, arabic music.. I found myself missing it. Weird.

just bought my first ever radiohead albums. seriously. first trip to cd exchange since return: success!

Goodbye, Les. :(

Last call isn't what it used to be. Now to finish up a sermon for tomorrow.

I mentioned a singing gorilla telegram in an email, and now Gmail will only show me advertisements for singing telegrams. Where's a butler with a gun when you need him?

Anyone else remember 8stops7?

@johndellaporta Also watching Angel, for the first time. Then off to Quarry!
