Almost-brush with greatness

So Lovely Daughter's trying hard to adjust to post-graduation life. She's going to auditions (mostly voice-over and commercials) and she just nailed a restaurant job. This was wonderful news, as she'd had a hard time finding likely prospects. Apparently August is not a good time to try to find a restaurant job in NYC.

I'd lost track of the various places she'd applied over the last month, so when she told me she got hired I wasn't really too focused on exactly where she was working.

I found out today that she's working at the Downtown Les Halles! I know, I couldn't believe it either! Now, Tony Bourdain worked at the Midtown restaurant, not the Downtown one, but, still! She is almost working at the same place Tony worked! And you know how I feel about Tony.

I mean, what if he stops by for a quick bite, LD waits on him, he's taken by her charms* and engages her in conversation and she mentions that her mom is a huge fan and has this blog**...

I'll be in my bunk.

* She's very cute and personable. This could totally happen.

** OK, probably not this. She doesn't even read my blog.
