Lunch was super good today, with several hours' worth of scintillating repartee contributed by George (your replacement was ordered this afternoon!), the ever-lovely A., Bad Future DJs (Saturdays 8-10 at Radio!) Jonathan and Echa, Jen from Sugarpuss, and new-media mogul xian.
Jen brought me more cutie ornaments for my mantle (Boris and Natasha wind-ups, Fine has a new line of T-shirts coming out for the gals). Echa started a wacky discussion about the possibilities of chef-branding (think Wolfgang Puck™, not a Triple-R on the behind), and George and xian totally geeked out trying to fileshare over the WiFi while sitting all of two feet apart. One of them passed on that Danah Boyd's looking for bloggers to take oral histories from for her graduate studies.
