I've been home 43 minutes, just putting off going to Wally's. Wally's is friendly and it's the only place I'd dine alone, I'm too tired to do anything at home, but I'd so much prefer not to go out by myself. Gretchen says, "i think you should have sushi and pretend to be an 80s japanese business man. drink sake. maybe wear a suit." But alone I can't brave the marble and disco and neon of Miyozen, however much verisimilitude.
