Together at Last!

Emily, Chris and I went up to LA to see Pete Holmes and Rob Bell in a show called Together at Last.  It was hilarious and great.  We randomly went to dinner first and had a great meal and spotted celebrity Joe Lo Truglio who is a hilarious actor, we love him as Boyle on Brooklyn 99.  I had a deliciuos cocktail with honey in it and we shared a bunch of plates - brussel sprouts, chicken sliders, and devilled eggs.

We walked about 15 minutes through downtown LA to the Regent Theater, which is a weird space with folding chairs, but it worked.  Pete and Rob came out and would alternatively talk about topics like wonder and joy, then did a little Q&A, then gave advice... it was unlike anything I've been to.  

I suck at taking selfies.

We got a few minutes to talk to them and I asked Pete to sign a scientific article that I happened to have in my purse.  I had to present it in my cancer bio class, it was quite interesting about breast cancer heterogeneity and cancer stem cells.  Anyways, I thought it would help give me perspective and joy while preparing to present it, and it did.  I got nervous and didnt ask Rob to sign it.



A great night.
