Props to the cousin, who in addition to last night's discovery of this great cheap ($3 for chicken, rice, and sodas) chinese place on 8th Ave, invited me to a party tonight. Of course, it starts so late that I'd get home at 2am just if I showed my face and left. Sadly, I'm no longer the young man who could pull a 3 hour nap and power through the next morning, so I had to beg off. Which I'm rather sad about, as I sit and think about it, as I really could use an opportunity to have some fun for a change. Maybe even meet a girl (oh, who am I kidding about that, I'll just nurse my drink all night and then dance very badly but be too drunk to care). On the plus side, as my afternoon gig got cancelled, I had a chance to catch Mass at St. Patrick's. Got the heads up that Smudge Day is this Wednesday, which is good to know. Now to find me some punchkies, or whatever the hell Polich people call those jelly donut type things.
