Day Trip
Woke up late this morning to a message from Liz, asking me if I could be ready to go to Boston with her in 15 minutes. Well, it took a smidge longer than 15 minutes because I was talking to Eric, but I went. We drove into Alston to meet up with a couple of Liz's friends from high school. Strange that they should end up near Boston when they started out in Arizona. Anyway, we grabbed a few souped up dogs at Spike's, browsed the wine at the liquor store, hung out at their apartment, and then tried to catch Adaption at the theatres in Fenway. We got there just in time to catch the last matinee, but the lines to get tickets were insanely long. So that plan got scrapped in favor of Boston Billiards. We had a few drinks and played a few games of pool, but only after we lost Liz because of an art supply store and found her waiting at the truck, like a lost child. By the time we got back to their apartment to regroup and pick up a few roommates, it was time to head out to dinner at the infamous Pho's. Now, Pho's isn't anything spectacular - just a good Vietnamese restaurant close to the guys' apartment - but Liz has special memories associated with it, so she raves about it constantly. It the food was really good, but mostly it was nice to be out with such a fun group of people.
