Vanessa starts her car...

(If you're at work - put on your headphones! Lots of swearing and inappropriate subject matter.)

Pictures from the week of culture

It started and ended with Twin Peaks. In between there was some live coffeehouse jazz, a Broadway production, a comedy club, a seedy blues bar, an Irish pub, the Colorado Symphony, a fancy hotel restaurant, a cool underground Mexican bar, a much-needed solitary brunch, a movie, an awesome happy hour, a quiet night at home, and a hike. It's been quite the week. Here's some pictures:

Boston's Famous Chicken! It's wicked good!

A conversation I had last night:


ME: Rubber Chicken? That's not a very appetizing drink name.

Anonymous: It must be a Boston drink.
ME: Huh??
A: You know ... Boston Chicken!
ME: What? Are you trying to be funny?
A: No... Boston is famous for its chicken!
ME: No it's not... what are you talking about?!?

A: Yeah my friend Paul is from Boston, and when I first saw his car I knew it was his cause he had a rubber chicken on the dash. Ya know, for Boston.
ME: Dude, that doesn't make any sense. I don't think people in boston even eat chicken. Are you thinking about baked beans? Clam chowder? Tea parties?
A: Come on - you lived there... Boston chicken! Ya know.. from Field of Dreams!
ME: WHAT?!?
A: You know, how Boston always has chickens hanging in the shop windows....
ME: You mean a Vietnamese open air market??
A: Nooooo! Come on! Boston chicken!!

Culture bomb!

Apparently this is my week of culture.

It started Monday with Twin Peaks and delicious Spicy Cinnamon-Sugar Popcorn.

Tuesday it continued with jazz night at a coffee house.

Last night was obviously dress-up-fancy-theater night.

And tonight it continues with comedy down in Denver. We'll be seeing Kyle Kinane, who is a friend of V's. Here's a clip:

Lipschitz...

I'm sure I've blogged about this before, but I'm excited so it's worth a second entry. Tonight, V and I are getting all dolled up and going to...


Yay new dresses and awesome musicals!
