"Archie's Diner," Grits said. "In Browns Point."
"I've been there!" I exclaimed.
On a couple of occassions, actually. You see, Archie's Diner is just down the hill from Carrie's folks' house. Carrie went there many times in her childhood.
So it transpired that yesterday (Sunday) Carrie, Ryan, and I all drove up to Browns Point and had breakfast at Archie's Diner with the gang from Northwest Diner Blog. We all six of us crowded around a table meant for four. I had the Monte Cristo omelette, which was rather tasty, although the grated cheese seemed to come from one of those bags of grated cheese you buy in the supermarket. They're usually hanging on a rack above the real cheese.
Carrie, Ryan, and I came back to the house here and then Ryan drove off to his Grandma's birthday party. Carrie & I cleaned for a bit before Fools Play practice, during which we ran completely through our new, exciting format. It's very, very different from anything else we do, so you should really see the show this Saturday (the 18th).
After practice Carrie went to the store to celebrate the half-dozen Bead Factory birthdays that occur during February, including store co-owner Mark
. Earlier in the day I created a free babysitting coupon for Carrie to put into his card, and it had a drawing of us on it.
While Carrie was out partying it up, I... um... what did I do again? Hmm... I talked to Brandy on the phone for a bit (she was in the middle of doing quantitative reasoning homework, and also in the middle of that HUGE Nor'easter). I ate an enchilada. I played much Animal Crossing and watched some of Bulletproof Monk (not very good, although I'm pretty sure that Jamie King is my new celebrity crush).
Carrie came home after 9:00 and went pretty much straight to bed, due to the fact that she was feeling a little sicky. Boo! I helped her, then I created a couple of this week's ANGRY BEEF sightings before I, too, went to bed around 11:00 and put on the first disc of Buffy season 5. One of my two favorite seasons!
