i finally saw the soloist today at the dollar theatre, which will soon shut down. the movie made me cry on three separate occasions. a violin with two strings is the saddest thing i have heard in a long time--it brings back memories of my own violin. i could relate to his protective instincts, to need to keep it with me only. hmm. it was a little hard to see at points.
aulden came back from the mainland today. its been five weeks without him, and i can't say i'm overjoyed hes back. it is a little more restful here without him. he did earn points though; he sent kurran a card and money and a pearls before swine comic strip which mentioned chuck norris. that is one of the most caring and thoughtful things i have seen him do, and to kurran no less. i wish kurran would have given the effort more appreciation.
as of friday, i knew my room number at soka. i have my own room. three weeks.
i have two days of work left if non doesn't ask me to work more for the days i missed when sick.
last night i went to dinner with mom to chef mavro, a fine dining restaurant. we had three course. i started with a double shot espresso. for dinner, first, a corn and lime soup with light sour cream and tsukemono. then i had a goat cheese, beet and olive oil bread line with greens. amazing; the cheese was very light. then came a roll and lovely butter. i don't usually like butter, but this was high quality stuff. then the main course: i chose eggplant dumplings, but they were fried, so i have a gratine of tomato, broccoli and a few other vegetables with a little dijon. delicious. i had lychee sorbet next, and mom had a champagne gelatin with cantaloupe. then came dessert: i had malasadas with guava filling, and pineapple ice cream. then came lavender truffles, a white nugat and some strange salt-citrus truffle. and then i had a cappuccino. mom had wines with her dinner. the last one was lovely wonderful. a sweet desert wine with a strong alcohol taste.
i watched the enemy within again and haha i love that ep.
