The list has been updated including rsvp’s, there are TONS of free shows but many are requiring rsvp before a certain time, so if you don’t want to be left outside the fence this year read the list, print it out do whatever you want with it…

Back for another burrito tonight, machaca, still $3.50. Love this place. Check my blog for my experience earlier tonight at Quizno’s by way of comparison. Living the high life now that I’ve discovered couchsurfing, all cheapskates should sign up!

I finally found the place, it’s quite a walk east (1501 East Yandell) from downtown. I had the Szechwan Pork lunch special for $4.55, it included rice and a cup of hot-and-sour soup. With a pot of hot tea and $1 tip, I got out of there for $7.50, not too bad, but I wasn’t really full either. My waitress Maria is cute but, alas, no hiphuggers…

I like how they use “cafe” to describe that cafeteria. cafes where you can smoke indoors? you can’t even do that in Paris anymore. take that France.

I was seriously just about to ask UC today if there was a place that had a decent salad bar that wasn’t $7.99/lb like Whole Foods and Wheatsville. And it’s a drive-thru? You made Miss Lazypantses day.

wow. Seriously. My friend’s Tom Tom or whatever GPS system in his car with the British accented female voice tells you to “bear right.” Kind of cool except when she tells you to bear right into a non existent road. *shakes head*
I couldn’t find the apartments and none of the people traipsing through West Campus seemed to know where it was. I just wanted to try something new… Use my primary form of communication, my words, to find places, instead of using google which takes forever on my phone. Since the phone on the other end wasn’t being picked up and what was I going to do with this bottle of wine? Can’t get on the E-bus with that. Live and Learn

There’s also a small dog park on the corner of Riverside and I-35. I drove by the other day and I’m pretty sure they were having a dog party. I should have stopped by to see the hot guys with crazy dogs!

If you go to Epoch Coffee House on North Loop, you can choose to pee in either heaven or hell. So, I will name it second best restroom.

Sagra
So Saturday night I had to pick a place to go eat with five people. Not wanting to foul up anyone’s Saturday night plans by having a 45 minute to an hour long wait, I had to pick a place that took reservations but wasn’t super pricy.
I found Sagra. It is a little house turned Italian restaurant. The food was alright and the price was good, especially for the whole atmosphere that is provided.
Buttttt….(because there always is one) the place was so small that you were practically sitting on the lap of the patrons at the next table over. For a place that seems to be aiming for a romantic ambience, having diners so close to each other throws all chances of ‘amore’ out the window.
So while the food was well-priced and good enough, what really seemed to matter was the quality of the conversation…that is the conversation of the couple next you to.
