Happy Steak and BJ Day!
March 14th is Steak and BJ Day!



Show your man the love, appreciation and affection he deserves today! Cook him up a nice steak and give him head that he'll never forget! We really are relatively easy to please. I don't have a woman in my life right now so I may just go get me a steak. Have a happy time today all you couples out there!

Horrible Start
God I feel so depressed today. I'm inconsolable. I feel like I'm going to throw up. I can't focus. I can't sleep. Days like this are so shitty. I can't think of anything that will help me right now. And you, dear reader, have had your time wasted by reading my gripe which you don't care about. Sorry, but sometimes writing helps.

Wedding Fun
Yesterday I went to yet another friend's wedding in Rochester. Every time I go to a wedding I can't help but wonder about the divorce rate in the USA. I don't ever want to see any of my friends go through the painful process involved with it. Some couples you know for sure are going to make it, and yesterday's couple is in that category. I've never seen a couple so into each other and so happy before! Not everyone has it in them to make that kind of commitment work but I believe in them 110% and then some. They are two of the greatest people I know.

The reception was at the Casa Larga Vineyards. I'd never been there before but I thought it was great for a fairly small gathering. I'm not really a wine person...I can't think of any wine that I would drink before I would drink a Guinness or Boddington's but I bought a bottle of their Lilac Hill variety. It's a white wine that is fairly sweet (2.4% sugar content, compared with practically none for a Chardonnay) and it has a very distinct flavor. I've never tasted anything quite like it. I like it more than any Sauvignon Blanc I've tried. Of course I can't drink much alcohol anymore but I had a couple of glasses at the reception. It was really good....I recommend it highly but I don't know if Premier or Gates Circle carries it.

After the wedding (e:Joshua) and I went to a cafe I know in Rochester called Java's. It's right next to the Eastman Theater. I think Java's is so much better than Spot. Instead of having all of those huge tables they have a bunch of smaller tables which lends itself much more to private, intimate conversation. The lighting is better as well because you don't feel like you have a bunch of spotlights assaulting your senses. If you are in Rochacha sometime I recommend it.

One thing I read in their City Paper (Artvoice minus the extremism) really caught my eye. There is a "national" group which was founded in NYC called "Drinking Liberally". There are chapters all over the country. Basically the club members meet up for happy hour every week. Progressives can meet and have a nice social gathering without the horrible thought of having non-Progressives in their presence. Is there a chapter in Buffalo? If not, why doesn't someone start one? I think something like that would be perfect for Elmwood residents.
