Very Nice Weekend
I've been told in the past by Ivan that when i go a few days without posting he gets worried, but I think I'm getting to the point where a week between posts is becoming common so no one's worried about it. Anyway, I find myself up late at night either catching up on e-mails or working on another project and this blog has gotten lost in the dust. Alas.
But even though it's Wednesday, I had such a good weekend that i want to share it.
First, on Friday, i got to celebrate Linh's birthday with him. We went downtown for a nice dinner and he even got to rise in the Bug for the first time, which I'm sure was the highlight of his weekend. He'll be leaving for the summer soon, but we're going to overlap in Bangkok for a couple days when I'm there in June (he's there all summer for an internship...lucky bitch) so that will be fun.
Saturday I drove down to Charlottesville with Stan, who's considering going to the University of Virginia for grad school. It was his first time there and I'm pretty sure he was in awe and probably came three times just looking at the place. He didn't buy a t-shirt but I think I'll get him one for Christmas (Stan went to the University of North Carolina -- BIG rival school -- and would probably be beaten with a large stick for even considering UVA). Oh, and we had Gusburgers for lunch, which is a hamburger with a fried egg on it.
That night after we got home we went our separate ways to get beautiful (well, I needed a few hours to get ready...Stan just took a nap) and then we headed out dancing, the first time I've been clubbing in DC in 2 months. Angelo and Josh joined us and a fun time was had by all. Stan convinced me to flirt and dance with this one really cute guy who was all booty-rubbin' against me and stuff, and then when we were leaving and I said goodnight he asked, "what's your friend's name?" Yeah, he was using me to get to Stan. Ah, such is life.
Sunday I wandered downtown for a photo shoot with a couple dragon boat teammates for a local gay mag. If I make it into the shot (the photographer was shooting at an angle and I, the only white guy, most likely got cut out) I'll post it up. Afterwards the four of us went out for dim sum and ran into a bunch of other friends...good food, good time, bad service, but hey. I wandered down town for coffee and writing and then that night fixed a little dinner for Adrian, Stan and I while we watched Return of the Jedi, thus completing their introduction to the original Star Wars trilogy...it amazed me that educated people like them had never seen these. What are we teaching in our schools???
I realized this week that I'm a tired bitch now.

Good food bad service sounds about right. Even I watched "Return of the Jedi" when I was a kid, am I THAT old?!
