Day 10
... holds court at one of the tables near the entrance. I'm the only patron. Maybe that explains the special treatment I get, with a chat about vegetarianism (she's never eaten any meat) and various recommendations.

Katie and Dave's Wedding
... I went and said hello to her outside and I started crying and she started crying and she said it was the first time she had that day! We had so much fun at the reception.
