Thailand Delight in L.A.

I sent Melissa off to Ohio yesterday and had some time to kill during rush hour. Plus after having a constant companion for the last two weeks I had no idea how to be alone again. (Wow, was that truthful or what?!) So I headed immediately for companionship in the nearest place hoping to evade as much traffic as possible. One large diet coke, one very full bladder, and one hour long one mile drive later I arrived in Hollywood to see Justin. Well, barely see him as I skidded out of my car and streaked into his bano. But after I was able to form complete sentences and walk without hopping, we sat on his porch and had a few beers. It was very relaxing, I must say. I made false promises to cut his roommate's hair and we ducked out for some Thai food down in....drumroll please..Thai Town. (Think Greek Town with lots of shiny stuff and no flaming cheese). We rolled up to this really classy joint that was clearly the place to be last night and found ourselves awash in traditional smells, food, live lounge music...and FRUITY DRINKS complete with umbrellas. It was the kind of meal that made you giggle like a little kid. The tables were high and the chairs really low so your face was close to the table top. I felt like I was at a tea party in Alice in Thai-Wonderland. Justin and I slurped our delicious cocktails and were serenaded by a live lounge singer, crooning to us in a strange tongue. It sounded like whining over elevator music, but I liked it anyways. I will give the evening four stars. And make em shiny ones at that!
