And Sunday came and gone... this is gonna be a boring daily re-cap.

Well, it was a busy day... but then again, it was Sunday and Easter.

Singing with the choir was a lot of fun... there's something powerful about singing in a large choir, where the voices seem to meld together and ring. Since the Chinese service had grown fairly large, the church had 2 services for Easter and the choir sang in both. During the offeratory, there was also a performance by the youth choir, or as Auntie Dora like to call it, the "Garrett & Under" group. I was the oldest person in the group... all the other kids were college, high school, or junior high... damn, I'm old.

After service, my mother and I met Shiv and my sister at Atlas, a nice Americana joint that's also owned by my other "American food" favorites 5-Spot and Jitterbug. I had a smoked shredded BBQ pork sandwich with fries and coleslaw... mmm.

Later, I ended up at Shiv's house, where I fell asleep for like 3 hours while she was watching a Spanish flick. I guess getting early and singing 2x made me more tired than I thought. Shiv made udon with fishballs and we watched "Black Sash"... yeah, major Russell Wong cheeeese, but surprisingly engrossing.

Got a ring from Abe that a bunch of people were going to The Ram for Mel's birthday, so I dropped by there. I was a little worried about finding a ride home (I didn't drive), but I really wanted to show up for Mel's birthday. Wasn't too hungry, so I just mothered a pint of the house's homebrewed IPA and talked with people. I thought it was funny that it turned out it was Mel's birthday, since he was the first person to tell me about 5-Spot.

Post-hangout, Dave, now rollin' in the Lam family ghetto Toyota, was nice enough to give me a lift back home. wh00t

Hrmm, work tomorrow. Fun.
