On Friday, I got to have lunch with Maria. It was awesome, as most Bo' reunions are. I wicked appreciate people like Maria, or JAB, in my life, who are just a little bit ahead of me and give me a taste of what's to come.
On Friday, I also got to have dinner with a bunch of crazies. Ever since I left W-ford and the Bo', I have had fewer and fewer vegetarian friends, to the point that at our dinner on Friday, we had beef and two kinds of chicken. Even the salad had salmon in it. Jo, however, was still hanging out with vegetarians and brought one into our midst (a union man, Mainer, and the only person to be born in Wiscasset in 1983-- we pretty much could have been best friends had he not been a vegetarian). In a frenzy, Katy dispatched Kevin to Shaw's to pick up something vegetarian, pasta perhaps. Kevin did not pick pasta. He picked up stuffed cabbage. Because that was the first vegetarian entree that came to mind. He also thought it satisfied our orange-theme criteria for the night. The red sauce did not. It also didn't satisfy the vegetarian requirement. In fact, beef was the first ingredient. Though "beef" might be being generous. The cabbage roll did not look like recognizable food. It only reminded us of very bad things, things that garner protesters outside the Brigham every Thursday.
A final tally of the day:
Maria: +50
Kevin: -200
Shaws: +$5.99
Vegetarian: Hungry
Unions: -15
Roe v Wade: -22
