Too much wine last night. Way too much wine. I have such a headache this morning. But, it was worth it. In spite of the my laptop swallowing it's email tongue as the closing note of the evening, I had an excellent day.

It started with a performance of Captains and Courage, a play by Israel Horovitz being performed off-off Broadway. It was a delight to watch, and brilliantly executed. Of course, I'm not just saying that because I'm friends with director, Michael. He really did a great job with it, and I marvel how someone could look at bunch of words on a page, and come up with such an elaborate vision for how to present it. It's all the more amazing if you know this particular play, which even the director said "It's really more a of a screenplay than a stage play." The first act had over 30 scenes, just to give you an idea.

After that, a few of us went to Jennifer's apartment, the same place I had Thankgiving a few days before, to help her consume the great leftovers from the feast. The food, wine, company and conversation caused the time to fly by, and soon it was almost midnight.

I tried to be smart and stay up to metabolize as much as wine as possible. I ended up doing the opposite, both staying up too late, and triggering a small stroke in my laptop, my primary computer. Perhaps tonight I'll find the wisdom to call it an early night.
