rad vegan shit

I was very productive at work today. Not that ione can really be unproductive when I performing/assisting in surgery. But, I was alert and in a good mood, which surprised me since I went out last night.

J.D.'s wife and kid are out of town, so he wanted to do rad vegan stuff with me since he had a rare evening free. So we met up for vegan buffet at Gokul and I ate my weight in ALL the items. Then we went to Pin-Up for some cocktails. Now....I've been sober for almost two months, and I was unsure if I wanted to get an alcoholic drink. There was one NA item available, but I was not interested in paying $4.50. So I ordered a fancy screwdriver. That was not the name of it on the menu, but it was vodka and mango juice with an orange twist. Served in a frosted Martini glass. I sucked it down and despite all the food in my belly, caught quite a buzz.

We joked with the bartenders and played some sweet 90s alt rock on the jukebox.

Then we walked to vintage vinyl. I was interested in buying the new Bronx record, but it was not on wax, just CD, and for $12. I wasn't bitin'. There was some some sweet soul tunes playing over the house system, and we were awkwardly (white folks) dancing.

I was home and in bed by 1045pm. It was a wonderful eveing with a good friend. I owe him, so we will havve to def rad vegan meet-up again.

Then today at work, a 91 year old female patient comes in wearing a hip brown pleather jacket, complete with biker collar.

Shw had gotten lost on the way to our office, and so (per her request) I drew her a map and gave her directions to the highway.

I told her when she gets to the stoplight, just go straight on through! She said, "even if the light isn't green?"

"Whoa! Watch out, you guys! We have a jokester here!!"

She called me 20 min later from her house to say thank you for the accurate directions..

I went to boxing after work. Sometimes I'm a little stressed, or tired, or unmotivated, but I fell so much better when I do go workout. The instructor was super cute. ALL the instructors have been good-looking, but this one...for me at least...had a little "spark."
