Tonight, [personal profile] kshandra and I attended a party at her boss' home to inaugurate his new fire pit. Numerous prongs were available, along with various pre-cooked sausages and hot dogs. raw biscuit dough was also offered. All to be cooked in the oldest of old school ways, over an open fire.

Fire and food

It was actually a lot of fun. I tried hummus for the first time, and found a variety I enjoyed, cooked a sausage, found that a dog had bitten my roll (big whoop, I ate it anyway), enjoy a few beers, and played fetch with the aforementioned dog. Lots of kids and people I didn't know. But still, a fun evening.

Coming home, we stopped at BookBuyers in Mountain View where we still have a mountain of credit, and I picked up an abridged edition of Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. You can't call yourself even an amateur historian of antiquity without owning this book.

I should note that Niece Prime is now working with me at Classic Limousine. She's kicking ass and is a threat to my security there. I have awesome nieces.
