lessons learned last night:

* kate and i are UNDEFEATED as doubles pool players

* when i've got some beers in me, i don't have the presence of mind NOT to INVITE strangers to step on my new shoes to 'break them in'

* bicardi limon tastes nasty

* french serge gainsbourg cover bands can get a bit annoying with go-go dance moves and affected smoking postures

* don't go downstairs into a club that is decorated like the pits of hell, but with brazilian pop and water sprinkling on you from unknown sources, even for five minutes.

* sometimes, i can't hold my liquor

* just like ELIZABETH, i yearn to explore more diverse forms of leisure!!!
