Question of the night

Went out for a fantastic meal at Clio after the exhibit hall closed. I’ll dish about it all later. But first: do you know the story of how your parents met?

See, over dinner, we discovered that all 4 women in attendance knew how their parents met, while all 3 guys didn’t know. We started asking busboys, and the only one who did know how his parents met seemed kinda fruity.

SO: do you know how your parents met, exactly?

Monday Morning Montaigne: Of taking a break

No Monday Morning Montaigne this week, dear readers. While I did start reading Book Two of the essays this weekend, and found the first three — Of the inconsistency of our actions, Of drunkenness, and A custom of the island of Cea — quite engaging and worth rambling about, I didn’t have time to do so. I didn’t get into a writing mood during the train ride up to Boston yesterday, and the loud 3-second buzz that occurs every 3-4 minutes in my hotel room has left me a frazzled wreck.

Really, the fact that I’ve put these sentences together is something of an accomplishment.
