theatokosLast night Adam and I went on a date. We went to eat a new-ish Italian place in downtown Berkeley, a sort of local chain sit down place. I was hesitant because I tend to hate chains and "midscale" dining places, but the food was really good! Finally, a good Italian place in the East Bay that doesn't cost a fortune.
Then we went and saw Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Sweet, not entirely formulaic for a formulaic genre film and completely laugh out loud funny, which was just what we needed.
In some ways it was the day that should be tomorrow: tomorrow is my 33rd birthday. I don't normally celebrate my birthday and don't really care much, but this year..... it's really gonna be a drag. I'll go in for my normal day shift at the hospital, then come home and then I'm going in for a night shift - the attending physician suggested it. I still don't completely understand why, but hell - a doctor suggested I spend more time with Benn, so what am I going to say? No?
Still, hope springs eternal. I have begun breaking my own theological "rules" - I've begun praying for specific outcomes. Always a dangerous game and theologically unwise. I am not yet free from the lust of results.
