January 27, 2012

Friday, friday -- another week passes by in a fine fashion...
Today was vocab. quiz day; we also reviewed the next unit's words.  I graded all the quizzes before leaving school.

I had dinner at the bar at Joseph Ambler with Nancy - the food was quite good, and there were happy hour prices for drinks and some of the bar food.  A cheap meal and a good time!  We spoke with one of the staff (not the bartender - I'm guessing the banquet manager since there was an event happening as we were leaving) about Charles Dickens' grandson and Dickens' novels.  Dickens' grandson stayed at  the Joseph Ambler when he was touring with his one man show.  The manager actually liked some of Dickens' works, like A Tale of Two Cities -- Bleak House, not so much.  We were telling him about the mini-series of Bleak House and how good it was.  As we left, he said, "See "youse" real soon!"   Too funny!

Breakfast and lunch:  same stuff
Dinner: cheesesteak and fries
Snack: cookie and bread
Beverages: coffee, coconut water, red wine

Reading the new Elizabeth George novel - can't remember the title, but there's always tomorrow...
