Three Beautiful Things 01/17/13: Clot Controversy, Steak House, Awkward to Smooth

1.  Christy, Mom, and I lounged around Mom's house, laughing, talking, trying to figure out if I ever had that procedure done that discovers a blood clot in the leg.  I didn't.

2.  Ed and I went to the Cd'A Casino for the night.  The machines were Scroogy.  But, the 7 and 7, salad, rib eye steak, baked potato, bread, and pinot noir and the steak house helped me feel a lot better about my lousy luck. 

3.  Ed and I met Janet and David in the bar.  They are longtime friends of Ed's and I very much enjoyed making their acquaintance.  I got to reveal my gentlemanly side when our getting acquainted started off with an awkward and politicized moment.  I was able to slyly turn it inside out and what could have been a contentious social occasion became one we all enjoyed.  Whew.  I'm not really into contentious politicized cocktails with people I've just met...or, to be honest, anyone....
