Short Post about a Long Weekend

First of all, let me scream, "I LOVE LONG WEEKENDS!" (Whew! Now, didn't that feel good?)


On Friday night, Andy and I met met some Hokie Kappa ladies (plus several significant others and children) for dinner at Maggiano's in Tysons Corner. It ws great seeing some old faces again.

Andy and I did some lounging on Saturday. (We're quite good at it - especially me.) That night, we met up with more Kappa ladies for dinner at Silverado in Falls Church.

On Sunday, I did some more lounging. (I know. Seriously.) I also went to the gym and cleaned the baseboards along the stairwell, which counteracted at least some of the laziness. That night, we met Melissa and Bud for dinner at Mikaku-Sushi Taro in Herndon/Oak Hill. We saw them at dinner on Saturday night, too, but it was kind of loud and overstimulating with all the other people there, so it was wonderful to catch up with them over a quiet dinner. We also hit Cold Stone Creamery after dinner, which was awesome! I hadn't had Cold Stone all summer, so that chocolate ice cream with little Snickers bits (heavenly goodness) totally hit the spot.


And then, guess what I did yesterday? If you said "more lounging," then you would be correct. Andy wasn't feeling well (stomach flu symptoms), so we hung out at home. I did manage to get to the grocery store and do some minor (very minor) cleaning, but for the most part, I was "L-A-Z-Y, I ain't got no alibi."


Overall, it was a wondefully relaxing weekend. And now, it's 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, and I'm still trying to get motivated. Maybe tomorrow will be better...


Royally yours,
PC
