Wanna bet we’ll end up in bed watching Bloomberg and eating takeout the whole time?

Hoo, y’all. It’s ten to one and instead of packing I’m touching this thing for the first time in ages. It’s not too late for us; bedtime’s been around four in the morning these days, once we get around to everything, including reading to each other from various things, like old people do. My Christmas tree is alive and in a giant pot and is tiltly and pregnant looking, much like my sister. I have to take a photo of it next to the fire place for posterity’s sake before I banish it elsewhere. Ten bucks says it moves onto the patio and stays there for the duration. I wanted to plant it (about seven feet tall) in between the palms in the front yard, but digging a hole for the composter took like three days, so forget that idea.

Tomorrow, off to NYC for a while. Lucky us we know famous people with pied a terre in cosmopolitan places, so we can go there and mooch off them.  While we are there, there will be Gene Pritsker, my partner in crime/crispy pork pusher from the Munich days. Also, what is coming with us to the big city? Seventeen pages of Chowhounds recommendations. Just for Soho alone. Our neighbor here in Santa Barbara has an Australian restaurant close to where we will be staying, but hell if I’m going waste a food opportunity on kangaroo skewers. First stop, Cendrillon, to get my crispy pata on, the Bar Room at MoMA for Alsatian (we are going for the art, of course), and Balthazar for breakfast. Nice that its just around the corner. LOVE just around the corner. We don’t have that here, you know. In America. Or at least here, on the westside of Santa Barbara. Here on the westside, just around the corner we have cute little five year olds who preface every comment with fuckin’, college kids playing loud drunken pool all night, and teenagers who steal Netflix out of my mailbox. Can you tell I’m now officially old? Can you tell I can’t wait to get out of this place for a while?

  1. I hope you had great Holidays and New-Year! I talked with Lech before Christmas and we discussed you briefly, but with a fond brevity you must know. He is well and German.

    I’m heading out to Oregon and Washington this Spring to visit Alison and other friends. I may be truly fucked in the head by then due to wintering on this rock, but at least I’ll be able to get away, as you are so eager to do from your piece of Heaven. I’d trade a good deal of seaweed and gull shit to have kids steal things out of my mailbox….

    I suggest you steal shit from theirs.

    You’re only as old as you (act / think / feel), Savvy?
