We(ekend)

Busy last few days.

On top of trying to get better (it seems the cough is starting to fade more and more), I wanted to try and enjoy the weekend instead of sitting on my ass doing nothing. My weekend probably started Thursday after I got my first Rx for the new medicine. Friday was a relatively easy day at work. Easy doesn’t mean I was sitting around, just that I was on my game and shit was getting done. And getting done right. I had to stay late, but it was well worth it knowing it wouldn’t be there come Monday morning. Friday night J and I made dinner at my place and watched the Dark Crystal. We were pretty pooped and barely made it through the whole thing.

Saturday was pretty chill, but still full of doing. Or, going. Hit up a few shopping places, so suburban and domesticated (thanks Stella!). Did laundry. Stopped at Duff’s. Ate at San Loco. Watched some TV. Just a bit of running around. J and I stopped at her place to pick up doggie who stayed the night last night. I think she was pretty comfortable because within an hour or so the pooch was on my bed! Ha. She’s just a great dog. Reminds me of Nina, but only of canine behavior. She adores everyone who gives her attention, and is chill in almost any situation. And super quiet. We got, what is for us, an early start today. Got showered (both of us) and took doggie for a walk all before 1 in the afternoon. Meet up with K&K around 1:30 or so, and headed off to the McCarren Park to do absolutely nothing. Well, we did mumble mean things under our breaths on several occasions, but it’s hard not to do that in this neighborhood now and again. It’s probably the last time I’ll see K&K before their family increases by one person here in the weeks (or days) to come.

This was probably one of the top weekends of the summer, so far. I’m still looking forward to the end of summer chill weekend in New Hampshire and Maine come Labor Day weekend.

Birthday Idea

I know, I’m super early… but I’m already excited for snow. If you want to help me out, send me a check now! C’mon, even the design of this sucker kicks ass AND has a tree. It’s a no brainer.

The Lib Technologies 1986 Snow Mullet BTX Snowboard

The Lib Tech 1986 Snow Mullet BTX Snowboard combines the best shapes of the ’80s with the newest design features of today. You get a tapered directional cut with a setback stance, reverse-camber Banana Technology, and Magne-Traction edges. Think old school powder board thrown in a blend with a new-school park stick that tastes like a banana-flavored smoothie of all-mountain freestyle goodness. This Lib Tech board also comes with a Morning Wood core for the stiff feel you love when you’re charging hard.
