What a whirlwhind weekend with the SC Twin! It was most definitely the “dog’s bollocks”!
We had a great time at the Taste of Clarendon – more food in one place I have almost never seen in my life (well, except for events with my (Italian) family!). Venison, shrimp, frog legs (YIKES but we ate one) and all manner of sweets swirled around my head. I asked the omnipotent universe to deliver me from the torment of sugar and for the most part, it did.
I think it was my stalwart duty to keep my Twin on the straight and narrow path with a small detour to “freakout lane” for amusement. According to the Sybil, I did rather well.
Things we must do each time we hang out:
1. Latte – and preferably a bookstore of some sort attached to said coffee place
2. Ceramics – yeah, we definitely have the hang of it this time. We did flat plates instead of friggin’ concave mugs and it went much more smoothly. I can’t wait to see the finished product.
3. Introduce new “sexytunes” to Twinnie – I let her off easy this time – no hardcore KoRn or Godsmack or anything. Next time, not so nice.
4. Watch a recent performance of Eddie – or even a not-so-recent performance. Just plain watch Eddie. Somewhere, somehow.
Anyway, we had a really fun time and she says she’s going to come visit us’ns in the big city here (if I don’t badger her about how the hell she gets here!) in July! Wheee!!
Every time you go away, you take a piece of me with you …
Remind me NOT to leave Ish alone with ACATs again. Bad mistake. BAD BAD BAD and might I add BAD! God save us all. It took me FOREVER today to get things sort of fixed from him playing in it. I hereby promise, in front of God and the 4 people that read this blog, that I will not take ANY more days off until Melissa returns from babycollege. JIKES!
But that’s okay – it comes on the heels of a kick ass “Six Feet Under” whereupon I was caught yelling at the tv – One of my favorite scenes/lines was when Russell divulges to Claire about his romp with Olivier. Russell: “I feel like such an asshole.” Claire (screaming): “You ARE an asshole!”
And, um, I didn’t say this but it’s true: If the actor who plays Nate ever shows up on my doorstep, my husband can just grab his toothbrush and hit the road. (Although I do wish he’d lose the sideburns.) (Especially if he will play upon the boulders with me!! hee!
Anyway, it was a great ep and I will be sure to watch it again tonight because I have nothing else (more fun) to do!
