Christine, Shi, Chel and I hit up The Pearl Hotel for dinner, drinks and Dive-in Theatre tonight. They were showing Sex and the City: The Movie poolside, so we thought we’d get together and watch it for the millionth time.
Shi: (looking at the menu) What’s a pom-us fritz?
Mayan: Pommes frites! It’s what you’re eating, crazy! French fries!
I wish I wasn’t so mean about it. Karma’s only a bitch if you are (as I would find out later). How is she supposed to know what pommes frites is, or how to say it? This is the girl who thought we made up the word aioli, after all.
I love it when I arrive for dinner and there’s a cocktail already waiting for me:
Our pommes frites appetizer tasted like skinny In-N-Out fries (my favorite!):
The highlight of my evening… prosciutto-wrapped shrimp skewer with fig/onion marinade:
And the lowlight of my evening… eating shit on the way back to my car with Chel. I tripped over the curb, scraped my elbows and knees, bruised my shins, and ripped a hole in my favorite jeans.
I’m sorry, Shi… You can call it “pom-us fritz” if you want to.
eh! you know me…it took me forever to figure out the strategy for price is right! hahhaha! and i thought it was “peak” toe shoes instead of “peep” toe shoes. im ridiculous!
and sonofabitch?! i can’t believe i missed you eating it! you know how severly entertained i am when it comes to you and your clumsiness =)

I want to go to there. Only at a time when they’re playing an old Rat Pack movie or something and NOT S&TC.
