mooching minnies
Susan and I played big time moochers yesterday and tonight, though I think I win the moocher award, since I even mooched off of her.Last night her trendy hotel re-christened its rennovated restaurant, unveiling a mural of Portland celebrities. We crashed it for free wine and appetizers. Then I let Susan pay for dinner.Tonight Susan scored even more free wine at a work-affiliated Christmas party. Then we both mooched off the hospitality of a random NE Portland stranger we met. Then I let Susan pay for dinner.Casey dropped by to show off wedding photos and we all mooched off the free hotel decaf.Lest anyone get the wrong impression, the mooching has been nice but the real fun has been the eating and the drinking. A few more weeks of this top-level mooching, however, and I might actually be able to pay off my fuel pump replacement. Too bad Susan's leaving town tomorrow, and not just because she's a good moochee and companion in mooching. She's a good friend to have around.
