The Boy becomes The Man


He turned 40 this weekend! ((applause)). We had a lovely dinner a deux at Wilshire on Friday night. Food was just fine, but service was impeccable. Sometimes I forget how much a nice server can improve the situation. Saturday we had dinner with friends at the local sushi bar (always a treat) and drinks at Cat and Fiddle. Also: saw 2 movies this weekend from the absolute opposite ends of the spectrum: Spiderman 3 and Once. SP3 was better than I thought it would be, funny, and the special effects were fab. Once is a small (very small) Irish movie about music - think about it like a musical in "The Commitments" vein rather than the "Dreamgirls" vein. The belting in this movie is entirely of a different sort. See it if you can. A thoroughly enjoyable long lazy weekend.
