Damn That Bubbly Elixir!

Friday night my sister and I met up with Elizabeth and had a lovely dinner at Aram's. You know those lovely dinners where the food is good, the atmosphere is good, and you linger long after the check comes because you are deep in conversation? After dinner, we moseyed down to the pub for a pint. And played a few songs on the jukebox. And had a grand ole time.

Went to a BBQ on Saturday. And since I was drunk by about 3:30 (champagne again, dammit!), most of the evening is kind of blurry. I know I ate some chicken and some corn on the cob, and I know I talked to some people for awhile, and there was a boxing match on the TV....

So Sunday I was not feeling too hot, but I managed to drag myself into the shower and into some clothes and I got myself up to the city to meet my parents, sister, and some family friends for lunch. We went to the Cliff House, which I don't think I'd ever been to before. Since I love the old-timey stuff, I had to look up the history of the place. The food was delicious, and after sipping a couple glasses of sprite I was feeling much better.


So I am staying at a friend's apartment this week - it is close enough for me to walk to work. Plus it's like I'm on vacation and staying at a hotel, except I don't have to pay for it!
