Yesterday, the two girls I tutor told me that they were going to be Chocolate in their 5th grade school play tonight. They suggested that I watch. But Wednesday nights are quiz night! It wasn’t much of a dilemma. The play was at 1900 and quiz night starts at 1930. I still made no plans [...]

For the second time, we have won quiz night at Lilly Macs. Sadly, I can think of only one point that was truly mine, which was due to the fact that I have actually been in Intercourse. Pennsylvania, that is. But that one point was the difference between first and second place this week. We [...]

Another fabulous dinner

I’m still working through the amazing menu at Lily Macs. Tonight was the gnocchi pesto. I still haven’t made it to breakfast yet. Trying to convince myself that stuffed apple French toast is appropriate with beer. Even better was the company! Introduced Curling Boy and Intern’s parents to my local Irish pub. (Intern has already [...]

I’m sitting under the television in Lilly Macs, waiting for quiz night and trying to catch up on blog posts. Under the tv was a poor choice in location. Why? Because the tv is behind me, and as advertisements play, the brightness changes. And when the brightness around me changes, my laptop adapts to the [...]

What’s the probability?

Intern went home after I tricked him into singing karioke, but I’m sitting here trying to type off the shot I had to do with hot bartender before he sang. So I checked facebook. Seems my math phd friends in Santa Barbara had a test. So when a guy came to me, said he couldn’t [...]

Quiz Night

Not that I want you all to know where I’m hanging out, since I have an unsubstantiated fear of stalkers, but I have to share because I’m so excited about it. Lilly Mac’s on Murphy Street has started Pub Quiz Night on Wednesday nights at 7:30. I was here, with an unsuspecting date, for the [...]

Sticking with the diet

I didn’t make this dinner. I found myself at Lily Macs again. Have another blog post I want to write. But since Ronzilla made fun of me not eating, I had to get dinner. Salmon, cous cous, cucumber, corn and pepper. Okay, so maybe the martini isn’t in the diet. Whatever.

I have been looking for my very own Cheers bar. The kind where everyone knows your name. (Although Brother K reminds me that none of the regulars in Cheers were female. How sexist!) I think I might have finally found it at Lily Mac’s on Murphy Street in Sunnyvale. I have visited three times. The [...]
