Coffee and Cigarettes

Ah, two things I don't generally indulge in...

Anyway, it seems the only time I have to write in this thing is the weekends. I can't believe how busy it gets for me at the moment. And now I've been asked to sing for a fundraiser as well. My wonderful friend, Natalia is putting a fundraiser together and has asked me to sing. I'm pretty sure we've agreed to perform Sarah McLauchlin's Angel (seems to be a bit of a standard for me now).

I'm really excited about this. But I haven't done any actual singing in months! Time to break out the warm-ups! I'm pretty sure it'll be just the one song, but it'll be fun to get in front of an audience and just sing again.

Is anyone doing anything spectacular for Valentine's day this year? I'm sure not. I think Dan and I will just have dinner out. We've decided to go to Milestone's since we both loved the food there the one other time we've ever been there. Unfortunately, it's really hard to get in without a reservation. It's funny, cuz Dan and I almost never make reservations when we go out to eat. We usually just show up. And the places we go always have room.

So anyway, I made reservations for us yesterday. The conversation went a lot like this:

Me: Hi, I'd like to make a reservation for two, please.

Hostess: Ok, when would you like to make the reservation for?

Me: Monday night, please. For 6:30 if possible.

Hostess: Ok, just hold on a second and I'll find out if we can do that for you.

Me: Ok, thanks.

(Hold)

Hostess: Hi there, we can make a reservation for you, but it'll be at a table for six.

Me: Wow, uh...Ok....

Hostess: There's only the two of you, right?

Me: Uh, yeah...*laugh*

Hostess: (laughing) You guys can eat and sleep!

So...yeah....If anybody's interested in coming down and joining us for dinner, we have room for ya.
