Just thought to mention this...

since it was on my 100 Facts thing that I did not like eating for the sake of sustenance.

I ate goooood tonight. Fried dolphin (the fish, you rabid activists, not the mammal), squid antipasta, angelhair with red crawfish sauce, fresh mussels on the half-shell and lobster tail with perfect Tiramisu and chocolate-coconut macaroons for dessert. And that's just the stuff I like! Plus free-flowing champagne so everyone was kept jovial between courses.

Yeah, it was the stepfamily, but all everyone seemed to do the entire night was want to talk about college and keep smiling through the part where no, I did not in fact have a boyfriend yet, and tell me how good I looked. All in all, I'd do it again.


Mmm.

Isn't it nice how every once in a while you have one of those 'events' where everything seems to go right, and it seems to make up for all the botched occasions over the past few weeks or months?

Maybe it's just lil ole me.

*Definitely* not just you, honey. I've been past due for a good stepfamily event for a while now, and everything just came together so well, I had to gush. All the food was amazing, the people were cool, even the ones whose daughter is pregnant or making a go of BCC, and I got a good helluva lot of writing done while *still* managing to charm everyone there.

Oh yeah. I was on fiyah! Apparently, good food will get you places. All those future boyfriends they keep alluding to should be taking notes, perhaps...
