And I&#8217;m going to crash hard tonight. Last night was a complete blur. The final episode of Angel aired. I caught it at my friend&#8217;s house. I thought it was pretty good. I&#8217;d have a more interesting opinion of it if I could remember much of it. The truth is, I drank a little much. In fact, thanks to my newly wimp-ified alcohol tolerance, my body just couldn&#8217;t take the bombarment by boubon to which I subjected it. My friend had a final episode Angel kiss-off party. By about midnight I was pretty much the only person there who wasn&#8217;t doing coke. They all seemed to be moving faster and faster. I was having trouble figuring out why I couldn&#8217;t read the CD that I was holding upside down. It was time for me to toddle home. Ryan walked me, which was cool. And it wasn&#8217;t until I was inside, swaying over the porcelain god and wondering if I was going to have to pray to it that I began to consider just how much I&#8217;d had to drink. I mulled it over with amazement and denial. I couldn&#8217;t have had that much. Am I really that much of a lightweight?<\/p>\n<p>I must have tried to watch a movie after that, because I awoke at nine in the morning on the couch with the TV on and the DVD screensaver dutifully blinking at me.<\/p>\n<p>I had no headache. I was just bone tired and a little queasy. The porcelain god had answered my fervent prayer. I napped later in the day after running a pair of errands and was suitably refreshed in time to head over to work. It was a big night at Rocket. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0209569\/\">Dino de Laurentiis<\/a> made an appearance and signed copies of his new book. Dino&#8217;s huge. Dino&#8217;s the king of producers. Just check out his list. Everyone from Fellini to King Kong. Rocket was packed. Mark and I were the regular cats. Sara and Ryan helped out. Sparkling wine flowed in abundance. I tried a taste of it, but it was awfully cheap. And I started getting a bourbon flashback, so I quickly set it on a chair.<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s still there.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a look down Franklin to Highland, taken today. Spidermania looms.<\/p>\n<p><div align=\"center\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sixsquare.com\/blog\/images\/0504\/spidey.jpg\" alt=\"Highland from Franklin\">\n<\/div>\n<p>Sara and I did have a good time yesterday checking out the museum yesterday. We didn&#8217;t have time to do the Diane Arbus thing, so we rescheduled for next week. I&#8217;ll go into greater detail later about the Space Invader exhibit. We each got a map, so the hunt will begin soon&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nothing like too much booze to remind you why you&#8217;re not drinking it anymore.
