Tuesday @ Chef T's.

Election night. Obama Wins the presidency. Thanks for joining us Sherri it was great seeing you again and adding your wonderful wit to our testosterone braise. Thanks also to Karen for stopping by after you got off work. Great night everyone, even though the power went out again. Movie-Man Sandy, FIRE HAZARD! Seriously dude, I realize that you're not normally using a fryer out on your patio, but in the event that somehow you were to obtain a fryer and wanted to use it, having to use it only during daylight hours when you could shut off the rest of your lights is a bit restrictive.
So, the condo didn't burn down and the food was awesome. Thanks Chef Tahya for amazing grub again. Baseball Mike, thanks for the great wine, loved it, whatever it was... and Movie-man, Thanks for hosting, providing proper water and letting us hang out at your place again. Oh, I must add (because those who know me know I must) WHAT THE HELL IS WITH THE STINKING PARKING again? Chef Tahya's better half didn't even stay because she couldn't find a place to park. Sherri & Baseball Mike both had to park in West Mesa and even late in the evening Karen had to park on the far east side of the complex. Alright, I'm not going to rant about it here, but Geeeeeez. Here's what I think (you all saw this coming, right?) First of all, you have a 2 bedroom, so you should get 2 included spots. You only have 1, so go down to the office and DEMAND a parking pass, for FREE. Second, the next time your homeowners association meets, go there and tell them you want the association (or whomever runs the parking) to offer temporary 24 hour passes (FOR FREE). Plus, you should be able to get as many temporary passes as you'll need for whatever event you're having. That way those people who know that guests are coming over can get passes for them ahead of time. Well, enough about that. Tracy, sorry you couldn't stay, we missed you.
