Whitest people in the world

Had a lovely, busy weekend. Yesterday, went to a birthday brunch for a friend at a rather posh bistro-style restaurant. They serve a damn good brunch at an incredibly reasonable price. I hadn't realized it was such a happening place to see and be seen, though. There was the local filmmaker whose recent movie about pimps and ho's has made him a rising demi-star. There was the owner of a tech firm, and a professor I recognized from work.

Our party of twelve dispersed around 1:30 and I had some time to kill, so I went to the Williams-Sonoma outlet to look for a belated birthday present for the honoree. What can I say, I only found out about brunch last Thursday, and I just ran out of time. I was cruising the isles when I ran into the birthday girl and her husband. Then I noticed the professor and his friends from the restaurant also were in the store. Then we ran into another couple who'd eaten with us. Oh, and when we went next door to Pottery Barn, we ran into yet another couple from brunch.

It reminds me of the Seinfeld when Elaine is dating the guy who may or may not be black. It turns out he thinks she's Hispanic. When they discover they're just a couple of white people, he says well, do you want to go to the Gap?
