Lu Lu

Last night Jeannie and I went out to dinner to celebrate our anniversary, and I can't help but be amazed that, despite the fact that we had a $100 gift certificate, we still ended up spending more on dinner than we normally do when we go out. How do people afford dinners like this? Yes, the food was good, and we had wine and dessert and a "microsalad" (which means very very tiny salad for $11.00), but I still can't believe that there are people who regularly spend that much on a dinner. Well, it was fun, and I'm glad we did it. I'm also glad we had the gift certificate.

Yesterday was a pretty damned good day. Worked on music all morning, and ended up with a rough draft of a song that now just needs lyrics. It's got a melody line and chorus already, so I really just need to come up with verses. What's this song about? I like the music, it's very U2-ish, with some good rough guitar sounds.

Also did laundry, ate a big bowl of pea soup (which I got a lot of in my beard), and took a very relaxing bath with incense, tea, bubble bath stuff, and Brian Eno book.

Work tonight. Not looking forward to it, but not dreading it, either.
