hiddenmuseI had an absolutely freaky dream last night ... involving Ann Coulter *shudder* and insurance. Yeah - all kinds of fucked up, there.
Basically, Ann was pissed off at me that she couldn't get a Fireman's Fund insurance policy, and was screaming at me, wanting to know why. I just said something about "some companies not being interested in high-profile clients..." and left it that. Never mind that in the dream, I saw reports showing claims ... tickets ... and an ex-husband(!!) in her past.
I was so happy to wake up, and discover that it was only a dream - and so far from reality. That's what I get for being around people that ask about what I do for a living - and hoping that I don't have to answer insurance questions. (Also, I'm guessing that the very small (3 oz. "taster" size) amount of beer I'd consumed last night ... a nice Kozlov Stout from Thirsty Bear Restaurant probably didn't help the fucked-up dreams, either.)
In happier news, over the weekend, I went out with Kellie and a couple of her friends for dinner at the aforementioned restaurant. There were excellent tapas, excellent company, and a very witty, on-top of things server who looked a bit like Dule Hill (Charlie on The West Wing). And, from what I'd heard, the beers were really good, too. Since I don't drink - well, rarely, if ever - I wouldn't really know!
Also, for Alton Brown fans - if you've been watching Feasting On Asphalt, you probably saw last Saturday's trip to St. Louis - and Ted Drewes Frozen Custard, in particular. Oh man - made me wish that I could have that frozen custard again! So the few hundred people that recommended it - very smart people, indeed. :-)
Of course, there's one last bit of goodness, to counteract the nightmare that was, well ... my nightmare. I have new nail polishes! Urban Decay is having a sale on colors that have been "retired", so to speak, so I picked up a few: Brick House, which almost looks like Chanel's Vamp nail polish; Asphyxia, pretty pink-lavender color ... sinister name; and X, a lovely rosey-golden shade. So, pardon me while I geek out and act a bit girly.
