Shows

Just bought tickets for Kris, Grant and I to go see Resurrection Blues tonight at the Old Vic Theatre where Kevin Spacey is the Artistic Director - I'm excited. It stars Neve Campbell and is directed by Robert Altman - so hopefully it should be good.

Kris and Grant got in on Friday - tired and sleepy - but we've had a great time so far. We went out on Friday evening for St. Patrick's Day to the local Irish pubs in Camden after a Guinness pre-party at our place and a walk up to Primrose Hill.

Saturday was Kristin's birthday so we got up, made breakfast, had coffee and set out to hang out by the river. We walked along the Thames, got banana and nutella crepes - so yummy - walked by Parliament, across the river and down to the South Bank. We spent the afternoon at the Tate Modern and then headed to Soho for the best Thai food I've had here. The restaurant was beautiful with red walls, lots of candles and classy decor and the food was excellent. Eventually we made our way to Kristin's birthday party at Digress where 15 friends awaited a night full of dancing... good times, good times.

Yesterday we went to Spitfields Market and spent the day walking around the East End - feasting on fresh olives, cheese, bread as we went and then headed to Jack's favorite pub - Indo - and then to Tayyabb's for the best Indian food outside of India - and it's so affordable it's tremendous...

I just sent Kris and Grant off to the Tower of London and the Imperial War Museum while I try and get some school work done and decide on my final dissertation title and finish my proposal - yikes! Good news is that I got funding to go to DC this summer to interview Republicans - riiiggghhhttt.
