Really!

So, I was too worn out last night to post, but here's what I did.

I hung around my dad's office reading and cleaning his desk. Finished Black Sun Rising and made it a good way through Maskerade, a Terry Pratchett book I had never finished. Then went to aerial, then dance, got a burn on my leg. It's ugly. Changed in the bathroom of my gym and went to.... The Visual Effects Society Festival Opening!

That was fun, I met the president of the society when I had fruit gook on my hands. We only stayed for about an hour, but there was free food and really expensive ordurves (Spell?) and a good Jazz band. They had a fabulous keyboard, and the alto sax player also played flute and clarinet.

Instruments were beautiful, had a great tap dancer who drummed. Anyway. After the hour was up, we went to Musso & Franks, an awesome resturant down in Hollywood with real waiters. I had been reading the menu and my napkin was still on the table, we when he came by to give us our drinks (the waiter was this ancient Italian -or something- man, and I got Diet Coke in a tiny glass bottle!) he actually put the napkin in my lap. The salad I got was huge, it came in a plate and on a bowl, and he managed to give the orders wrong to everyone at the table. We waited until he walked away and changed them. But Orson Welles used to eat there, which isn't saying much, and Hemmingway and Faulkner drank at the bar also. Charlie Chaplin was a regular!

And none of this was on the menu, I looked it up, here.

I highly suggest going to this place, it's very "Wow, you've worked here forever!" Almost like that restuarant the family in the Mafia movies own. Which slightly scares me. I think it's been around since 1919.

Okay, going home on Saturday. I have this great new Arabic pop song to show you guys at home. Avi, you probably won't like it as much, but you have to listen to it.
