We've Got the Blues!
We've got the blues allright. Why? Because on Christmas night the non-Christian editors were visiting another non-Christian friend in a regular Christmas tradition of dinner and a flick. But the friend ate a late lunch with her father and was not hungry, leaving the editors to budget-theater popcorn to tide them over. After the movie the editors scoured the western Chicago suburbs looking for sustinance, only to find a suspicious looking burrito joint and a Dunkin' Donuts(tm). The latter was out of creem cheese for the bagels and Fred apparently isn't what he used to be because those donuts were stale.
We've got the blues allright, because at the main downtown branch of the Chicago Public Library, the feature in the theater features a history of Chicago women blues singers.
We've got the blues allright, because in a terse-yet-heartbreaking voice, Monz left the following voice mail: "No lunch today [click]."
Update!
Oh G_d, it turns out we weren't kidding!

Monz had a very very late lunch (3:30pm) of ham, lettuce, mustard, tomato, on foccacia (sp?) picked up by yours truly from the lovely Waukegan Court house cafe after a hearing.
