(Community Matters) Though we missed Steven, dinner last night with Michael Mitchell, Tana & Joe Christie, Stephen Walls and Melissa Henderson & Drew Valcourt was just what the doctor ordered after a day reading, blogging and napping in front of the fireplace. We laughed, told stories on each other and I picked on MM so much he stopped to ask, “what is it with you tonight, do I look like Charles Santos?” In fact, Charles arrives this afternoon . . . must have just been sharpening my verbal wit.
