I'm here for a wedding. I love Santa Barbara. I just saw a homeless dude with bluetooth! And I ain't talking about his dental work. He had a full-on earpiece. How weird is that?
The weather is gorgeous. The whole frickin' town is gorgeous. I'm in a bar, drinking Guinness, and enjoying a black forest ham panini. Gorgeous. I'm going to hang out by the pool later. In the middle of frickin' winter! More later.

Treach is right, annie. Better start taking evasive action.

Hey Annie, here's two suggestions:
1. A nice bike ride out to the pier, a ride or walk on the pier; and/or
2. A short ride up to Bacara and a long massage in the health club there.
Either or both followed by good beer and whatever pleases the palate. Usually good seafood anywhere.
Relax and enjoy; be thankful it isn't you that's getting tied down this weekend.

Two restaurant recommendations, annika: La Super Rica (don't be put off by the hotdog stand exterior or by the huge lines—it's great) and
Cafe Buenos Aires—great food, a
very romantic setting.

Ah, the town of my birth.... Cottage Hospital...
I second the Super Rica recommendation, and add to it a recommendation for the Paradise Cafe.

Only trouble with Santa Barbara in the winter is that if it does get cold, which happens now and again, they can't do anything about it. I was there one Christmas when it got down to amere 20F and like to froze.

Shit Hugo, that explains everything.
So Anni, do you plan to close the deal here, or did the BF have something else to do in Sacto?

Crass, crass. Just ignore him, Annie.
A girl needs her time off, especially in the second year of tedium.
Santa Barbara is no place to close the deal, besides, I'm guessing it is the BF who needs to do it, not Annie.
Well, Annie, your turn to weigh in...

I wasn't being crass. THAT deal was closed long ago. I'm talking the ring and the date deal. Everybody KNOWS that every single girl at a wedding wants to be the bride, even the lezzies. That's why it's such a great place to get laid if you're an unattached single guy there. Now if you've been dating a girl for more than a couple months, and she takes you to the wedding, it's a clear converstation starter to drown out the noise caused by her biological clock. Am I right, or am I right?

CASCA If your girlfriend drags you to a wedding, and you have no intentions of marrying her, then use the opportunity to get some phone numbers from the bridesmaids, you are gonna need them.

What, Casca, does my being born in SB have to do with anything?
Annie, when you get back, tell us where the wedding was.

I went to grad school in the area more years ago than I'll admit to but have been back a number of times.
Tell me, is the Good Earth restaurant still open? Awesome breakfast, great tea. Last visit it was located on State Street in Goleta.
Great golf too. Sandpiper is a favorite.
Thanks for the memory jog.

Sorry, Casca, I am of the opinion that the BF is just a convenient appendage to get her through law school. I never got the feeling that she wanted to land him permanently. But then, I've been wrong before, so what's one more wrong guess?
Just saw saw the cloture vote, 75 to 25. Kerry and Kennedy can kiss my ass. Comne to think of it, I wouldn't even let those killers near me, one shot a wounded guy in the back and the other left an innocent girl to drown. Screw 'em both.
How can the people of Massachusetts be so frigging stupid?
Let's hear it for Justice Alito!!!!

LMAO, "convenient appendage", ah to lead the life of a convenient appendage.
Why does Mass elect these buffoons? Same reason Cali elects Boxer and Feinstein. They're rotten buroughs, and the D's have enough places to steal votes that they still hang on to power.
