These cold gray November days are always so fraught with potential, the air feels like it's full of electricity - is today the day the first fat fluffy snowflakes will fall? Today, I'm thinking is a day suitable for Nachos and Beer, followed by seeing an awesome improv troop. Running out to get the Saturday paper and some fresh donuts this morning is also a temptation. But so is staying in my PJ's, going back to bed and just staying in bed until it's ridiculous. You know - so that it's so late in the day that you wonder if there's any point in getting dressed at all since you'll be back in bed soon enough? Is it a sign of getting old that I weigh staying in my PJ's on the same level of decadence as drinking many beers with Nachos (and maybe wings)? Both are very attractive options to me.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Choose Your Own Adventure that is side_show
If you want side_show to get dressed and go get donuts, turn to page 27
If you want side_show to stay in bed all day, turn to page 4
If you want side_show to got out and get hella twisty on Stella and gourmet Nachos then watch an improv show turn to page 16
Which to choose? They're all so sexy. I earned this weekend. Earned it.
While I try to decide I'll watch an episode of Iron Chef America.
