This weekend was packed with well spent time with friends.
Friday we celebrated J’s birthday…what a great night. Between closing a restaurant with friends in Georgetown, to Lebanese food at 2:00 am in the morning…it was great. Sure I woke up with the worse stomach feeling in the world, but B made a few suggestions that seemed to work well for the hour we snoozed through before going home.
I found out, from B later that weekend, that I used B as a pillow Friday night…but soon was admitting that I rather sleep next to someone than alone any given day of the week…so if it meant sacrificing his space for one night so be it...it did not seem to sacrifice his comfort. I also think that offering endless amounts of backrubs kind of makes up for the pillow-thing.
I then was scolded, rightly so, for having a day old bottle of Gatorade in my car that I was considering consuming. Turns out those things go bad. Go figure.
Saturday I went to Derby Cross with my horse-family. It was fantastic to say the least! Maggie’s “mom” got a spot right on the rail, so we saw almost everything! We all were a little worried about the polo player’s ability to jump over those fences, and even more worried about the horses they galloped the entire course, but in the end all was well. One rider did fall badly, and when her horse got caught under the jump she became injured by the poor horses flaying legs.
We stayed for Twilight Polo which was a lot of fun, E and her boyfriend stayed with us, and both J and I enjoyed chatting with them while rooting for both Polo teams. I unfortunately was not up for going back out Saturday night, and was disappointed that I couldn’t go dancing with J…damn stomach!
Sunday I went to the Zoo with B and his munchkin, Miss E. We had a great time walking around while Miss E got her fill on all the animals she likes; I proved my skills as an avid Where’s Waldo reader, and was able to point out several hiding animals…which quickly triggered groups of people to crowd the rail to see the newly discovered animal. Miss E seemed very fascinated by the shrews and the sting rays and did not want to willingly leave them. She made the cutest faces and was most adorable when she was pointing at things for her Daddy to see. She finally had enough of the zoo and was so tired that she, much to the surprise of the adults, suggested we go back to the car. Hands down the easiest fight to go home I’ve ever seen. Miss E was actually shouting for us to go faster…but trotting uphill in 90 degree humid weather, while pushing a stroller in flip flops is pretty much my limit...I just can’t go any faster than that. Haha! We got in the car and out of the zoo just as it down poured. She was out in a matter of minutes.
Ending the weekend with a movie at A’s place Sunday night…it was a great weekend. Not a great movie though…a terrible ending.
