(This is Abe.) The main thing to report about Friday is that I went to dinner with my friend Nick. I’ve known Nick almost 10 years. I met him in Chicago, and a few years ago he moved to Utah, about 10 minutes away. He is one of my very best friends and we keep in touch a lot. He’s had a hard life, and has struggled financially and with his career. He is crazy good at beat boxing, and he has a beautiful and kind heart. He’s been super down on his luck lately because he lost his job and also because of some other challenges he’s been dealing with.
We went to the King Buffet near Smith’s just to hang out. It started out pretty somber, but lightened up once we got talking about Marvel movies and Star Wars. By the end, I think we both would agree that a good time was had, but Nick was still very discouraged. I was stuffed out of my mind, since I had dinner at home right before going to the King Buffet…Ugh, my diet has been sooooo bad lately.
