These are the times I’m supposed to be living it up.

And living it up I am. I can’t even remember a weekend where I have had nothing to do and just vegged out. And you know what, I don’t really miss it. Sure, I am exhausted on Sunday nights and throughout the week, but its all so worth it. This weekend started with happy hour promptly starting at 5PM, soon to be followed with all night drinking. Saturday, up early – I blame the doggies, and headed down to Dupont to meet Stacey and her mom who was visiting from Jax. We walked from Dupont to Georgetown and had lunch at the waterfront, munching on the most delicious crab dip I had ever tasted. We walked around Georgetown a bit then found ourselves in line at Georgetown Cupcakes. The cupcakes are so yummy and decadent, I don’t mind the wait! I then met up with my sister and bro-in-law to do a Georgetown walking tour of the various movie sites filmed there. We even walked down the Exorcist stairs! We then rushed over to the Capital to catch the remainder of the Asian Festival. We had sticky rice with cut up mangoes. It was so tasty, we had to go back and get another.

I rested for a bit at home before I headed back out into the city. I met up with Stacey and as soon as we emerged from the hotel, we were quickly flattered by two guys walking past us. It was going to be a good night. We went to Lucky Bar and boy, how things have not changed. We got our drinks and soon found ourselves dancing and screaming “I love this song” to every song that played. We danced and danced up until the point where it became the hour of the night when it becomes the creepy “lets see who I can grind on” moment came and left and went to Town. We met up with the boys and danced on stage and kept dancing till our feet hurt. We did some quality bonding time in the car as we waited an hour for McDonalds only to be told they only take cash (where we had none) and were stuck in the longest line ever and couldn’t get out. Haha, this was quite the funniest moment of the night. I guess its one of those “you had to be there moments”. I didn’t get home till 5AM, only to awake four hours later to head to the mall to open the store. I was not a happy kid. All things that could go wrong when opening the store happened (power outage the night before screwing up the computer system, no other employees there to open the store) and lets just say I was so happy to be going home at the end of the day.

What a lovely weekend it was, and now memorial weekend is a few days away, where a BBQ is happening and I get to see my bestie and her lovely family! Hello, summer!
