Virginia with Jess/Eric/Pea in their Pod

Friday: We got in around noon. Picked up Eric at work and went to a place called The Savage Mill in Savage, MD. It's an old mill that has been turned into a restaurant and a bunch of "crafty" stores. We ate the Ram's Head. We were in Maryland, so, of course, I had a crab cake sandwich.

We were all a little tired...what with me not going to bed and getting on a 5:30 flight, and Jess being pregnant. We went back to Jess and Eric's new house and just relaxed for a little while. Had dinner at Johnny's New York Style Pizzeria.

Afterwards, we went to Lucky's Kind of like a Dave and Buster's. Eric and I got a couple of drinks, and Eric played games with Gabby while Jess and I caught up. Gabby and Jess were pretty tired so they went home to watch The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants...1 & 2. Eric and I stayed at Lucky's. We kicked major ass at the jungle something or other game. And shook ourselves to death trying to get zombies off of us. We had Jess come pick us up...maybe we had a little too much. Got back to the house, and Eric and I proceeded to drink a little more. Passed out.

Saturday: We had dinner with Jess' parents and her friend Holly and Holly's son Brodie at the Famous Dave's that Jess' sister, Kaycee, works at. Really, really, REALLY good BBQ. We stuffed ourselves into oblivion.

Jess, Gabby, and I headed to DC. Went to the Natural History Museum. Tried to go ice skating on the Mall, but the line was ridiculous. Let Gabby take in the monuments, which she could have cared less about. Finally went ice skating at Pentagon Row. Well, I didn't go ice skating. I watched, smoked, and then had coffee.

Pretty damn tired, so we went home. Rested a little, and then Eric made Gabby and me try Pho at a restaurant called Pho Kim. Not horrible. Probably wouldn't eat it again. At least in large quantities. Stopped for ice cream because the pho just wasn't that great for any of us. I was really proud of Gabby for trying it though, and not being freaked out like usual about new, weird food. She's been really good about trying new things lately. I like it.

Went home...had maybe a half a glass of wine, and we were all ready for bed.

Sunday: We went to brunch at the Chart House on the Potomac with a few of Jess' friends that I know pretty well: John and Claudia, Dean and Deannie, and Jess' brother Rob with his girlfriend Stephanie (my little pocket pelican). It was a very nice restaurant with an all inclusive brunch...huge salad bar, brunch (I had Eggs Maryland...crab cakes...AGAIN!)...and of course, all you can drink champagne...which I did. Which then meant sleepy time on the plane. We went straight to the airport after brunch and got home around 10.

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Busy!!!

This weekend was jammed pack with errands and stuff. I played the Sims3 for about 5 hours on Saturday, and other than that, I never really got to sit still. I took my car in on Saturday because it was shaking horribly whenever I got up 60mph. Ended up having to get 4 new tires and an alignment. Sunday, P-Dub and I went to Joshy's house and stole his couch. He's moving and gave me his old sectional. I LOVE it! P-Dub went to his dad's for dinner and I stayed home and nested. Cleaned, rearranged. Love it! Gabby had to stay at her dad's one more night since I didn't get my car back until today. P-Dub spent the night so he could take me to work. He played the Sims3 and I read my new book. It was so domestic and sweet. I knew I wasn't crazy when I took off Friday from work. I'm working way too hard. Because I have to. Really shouldn't say too much about my job here, so I'll just say that I've been doing too much...alone. And it's kil...

2 More Days!!!

Gabby and I get on a plane that leaves at 5:30am on Friday to head to DC to be with Jessica, Eric, and the new dog. I can't wait! Gabby's never been! And she was too little the last time she was on a plane to remember it. Exciting! Last week, Jess' friend Deannie was in San Antonio. We met up for dinner and drinks. Love ya, Deannie!
