GC '06--Friday

This is a slight tangent from the fun stuff, but I needed to bitch. Friday, for lunch we went to Panera Bread for lunch. I had never been there before, but had heard good things. The prices are pretty expensive so I surprised to hear that the food is all pre-made (I had asked for a sandwich on different bread since I can’t eat pesto). It was very disappointing, but at least the food was good. On a side note, once again, I did not have sign the receipt when I paid with a card.

That night business went well and we were done by 9, giving us plenty of time to hit up the bars. There were a lot on Westport St, and none of them had cover charges, so we went to a couple. The last bar we went to had a pizza shop inside. This is an ingenious idea. The pizza cost $2.25 a slice, but we bought it b/c we were hungry and it was there. Bars in Philly really need to look into this.

When we got back to the hotel, I was planning on going to bed, but I bumped in Fresh. Since GC is pretty much the only time I get to hang out with him, I nixed the whole going-to-bed-idea. Somehow a small group of us ended up in the sauna. Interesting experience. There are some other fun details that best kept to myself, but let's just say I was able to continue a GC tradition.
