I will probably never be the same.<\/p>\n<p \/>So, one very important thing that I forgot to mention yesterday is that I have an empty drawer. This is very very big news in my house. My organizing and donation-pile-building has yielded one completely barren drawer, and I&#8217;ve peered into it four times now, wondering exactly what will end up in there. Notebooks? Unmentionables? Gravel? The possibilities are almost more exciting than the outcome. I&#8217;m just going to enjoy its emptiness for now, as it is <i>liberating<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p \/>Last night, we had bidness to attend to, or at least Matt did. He&#8217;s working on an article that requires touring bars and drinking. It sounds really great, but there&#8217;s actually quite a bit of work involved too: you know, getting info and interviewing and arranging for pictures and writing. Me, I just come along and enjoy the upsides.<\/p>\n<p \/>Our second stop on this outing was <a href='http:\/\/www.mplstemple.com\/' target='f'>Temple<\/a>, one of those places the local media is watching closely to succeed or fail, what with several upscale restaurants closing (for which they blame Town Talk a lot, haha). I didn&#8217;t expect to be as impressed as I was, because fancy isn&#8217;t my thing, so much as &#8216;someplace I&#8217;d be comfortable taking a nap under the table if necessary&#8217;. I had a drink with a floating orange island in it, and this particular island was ON FIRE. We also shared a cheese plate almost identical to one we had at the superfancy restaurant in Vegas. Because of this, I would like to respectfully request that Webster&#8217;s adds the word &#8220;cheesegasm&#8221; to the dictionary. It&#8217;s only right.<\/p>\n<p \/>Anyway, we will surely be back, and next time we&#8217;re having a Menage a Trois.<\/p>\n<p \/>Also on this adventure, we discovered <a href='http:\/\/www.bjschickennwaffles.com\/' target='f'>Betty Jean&#8217;s Chicken n Waffles<\/a> downtown, which makes two places I must get to ASAP, or else. (If you haven&#8217;t watched <a href='http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/restaurantmiami' target='f'>the commercial<\/a> for Restaurant Miami, you are surely missing out. Please note that it must truly be great, for this is the first time ever that I have linked to The &#8216;Space. Hopefully the last.)<\/p>\n<p \/>This weekend, dudes. There is a whole hell of a lot going on this weekend. Trust that you will be hearing about this soon.<\/p>\n<p \/>Jenni<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday morning, I woke up with Pour Some Sugar On Me in my head.
