Blackbird's. Bingo. Finally: we lost! So happy to lose. No heavy drinking. Just a night out with one of my favorite buddies, Alexis. Happy Cinco de Mayo! Bingo Bob, who was planning on becoming a history teacher before he went into television gave us a lesson on the origins of today's holiday. Contrary to popular belief, Cinco de Mayo commemorates Mexico's victory over the French. Lesson learned.
As Liz Phair reflected about this holiday: "Absolute measure, I ain't no pleasure hound/ Bus out of control, plowing the road/ Out on a bender/ Just Alice falling down a deepening hole."
My sentiment exactly.
