I did get out amongst those bare branches and crisp air to throw the baseball around with Jared Hayes and John Sakkis.
Later, despite my poverty and after having played too much Yoshi Island I went to the Catacombs for their fantastic happy hour specials ($1 beers!). Here's some notes:
1. Having a good conversation with Sakkis regarding translation and the developing of a (my) critical voice.
2. John constantly remarking on how hot our hot waitress is. (She's hot, by the way).
3. Some dude coming up and being all, "Hey, do you got a cell phone I can borrow?" And John saying "no," me saying "no," then John informing the guy that there's a payphone outside. Then the guy saying something like, "You think if I had the money for a payphone I'd be asking for a cell phone?" And then a confrontation ensuing where the gentlemen informed both of us that he's "from here." Because, well, you know, BOULDER is a tough place and that kind of comment can really instill the fear in a person. Then the guy said something like (with crooked hat in its proper crooked placement) "You want to take this outside." Then John saying, "Yeah," and standing up towers over the guy who then starts to try to back out before the bouncer comes up and kicks him out.
4. Spending the next hour talking about how stupid that was, amped up on adrenaline.
5. Sabrina Calle and Jeremiah Bowen joining us for drinks.
6. John going home to watch porn.
7. Akilah Oliver and Anne Waldman joining us for a short time.
8. Anne saying "Viva la San Francisco!" to me as she left.
9. Drinking too much.
10. Going to the Downer with Sabre and Miah where they fed my poor soul A LOT of beer.
11. Sabre and Miah getting so drunk that somehow I had each of them going on for about 10 minutes a piece about how gorgeous I am.
12. Coming home, making eggs, then passing out to X-files the Movie.
