Party tonite, it is cold and rainy here. Not feeling like getting dressed as cute as this girl. It's a Vegas party at Marybeth's. She is another artist friend of my mine and she is still so YOUNG. Happy birthday MB! She is going with me to New York City this month. You should see us trying to eat out together, she is lactose intolerant and I am gluten intolerant. And it is pretty serious for us both-worth the speech to the waiter. We had this french waiter at Baltazar last spring who thought he was being punked we when tried to order our meals. Speaking of french waiters...Tom and I are going to Paris in late May and early anniversary gift to ourselves. Five big years, hooray! I have been a woman obsessed trying to secure a decent and affordable hotel in the area of Paris that I am fond of, St. Germaine. But at last, I found one and I have ordered my french language dining cards for wheat and gluten intolerance, ugh! This will presumably help me order something besides and omelet and salad! And now I have decided I need a new trench coat to take with me...which if I was smart I would pack no coat get cold while I was there and be forced to purchase one! Ahhh, how a woman's mind works!
