Dining with Dinosaurs
My girl and I, being the mature adults we are, had an absolute blast going on a date to a dinosaur-themed restaurant the other day. We ate inside a giant clam-shell booth, underneath an even-gianter octopus and various jellyfish (my all-time favorite animal, should you not already know that).
Afterward we decided, being the mature adults we were, to forgo Chuck E. Cheese and instead play arcade games at Dave and Busters. (Meg won the Jumpin' Jackpot! A game you should definitely play, by the way.)
Eating Spongebob
I ate Spongebob Squarepants. In the form of a cookie.
As a belated birthday present to Rafael, I took him to the historic 9th and Vine district of Kansas City, a really nice little area paying homage to the excellent jazz history that occurred in Kansas City in the 30s, 40s etc. For instance, Charlie "Bird" Parker, who just about invented bebop jazz, grew up and started his career in this very neighborhood. Here I am kindly cleaning out the earwax from his likeness.


Fame and Fortune
The band of which I am a member, New Inhabitants, has been playing some good shows recently, after training our new drummer. It's been fun, we have improved, and- we made it into the Lawrence paper as a Best Bet for the evening!
