the day i became friends with jesse...

we went to the mall of america.

we talked about morality and God for over three hours.

for half of that time, we were sitting near the clear glass window/wall of the Starbucks, drinking coffee while the nearby area filled up with contestants for America's Next Top Model. =)

we went to Pizza Luce for dinner, in honor of Tony's birthday. Jesse bought me a shot called the Marshmallow Salad, which tasted EXACTLY like marshmallow salad.

we went to a dueling pianos bar, where i requested "What if God was One of Us?" by Joan Osborne, and asked the pianist to please say that it was "from God to Jesse".

Claudio, MCS's former drum tech and dear friend, played drums on at least 5 songs, and cowbell on one, and was absolutely the highlight of the evening. he was much better on the drums than any of the pianists.

and now, to bed again.
