Weekend Adventures

Kind of a "Meh" weekend if you ask me.

I started off Friday at a Happy Hour with some coworkers at a fun, off-beat bar called The Grapevine. Then as our stomachs grumbled we started talking about where to eat dinner. I suggested Cyclone Anaya as it wasn't too far away and we were already in the gayborhood. Not a good idea! It took over an hour for them to get us a table for 6. I was a little grumpy by then as I was the one who suggested this place. Then the music was too loud and you could only talk to the person right next to you, and that was almost shouting in their ear. MEH.

Saturday I crawled out of bed a little too early and a little hungover. But I had a mission. Something silly for Sean. Then I started doing chores and stuff around the house. I went shopping for something and realized that I really hate being in a mall. Meh.

I got home, ate out on the patio and re-potted some plants since the weather was so nice. I told myself that I would get some exercise out on the bike trails on Sunday.

I woke up shivering early, early Sunday morning and decided to turn on the heat. Yes, the temperature in Dallas dropped over 30 degrees overnight. And it was misty and gray and chilly all day. Meh!

I met a friend out for brunch at a new place for me. We were enjoying some good conversation but I noticed that time was passing and we still didn't have any food. I ordered a cup of hot chocolate since my tummy was grumbling again. Finally our waitress showed up, not with our food, but an apology and the message that meal was comped, whenever it comes out. It still took about 10 more minutes! Meh.

But didn't the cup of chocolate look good? Yummy! The day stayed gray so I stayed in all afternoon before heading over to a couple's home for dinner. It was a nice visit, hadn't seen them since last year!

Hope y'all had a better weekend. At least I got plenty of time visiting with friends!

Maybe the dinner with the couple was the highloght of the weekend! I had a fairly busy weekend and needed some me time - but just couldn't even get that!
