What a weekend. It was fun but busy, busy. I didn't want to come to work this morning (although that isn't very different from most Monday mornings!)
Friday we were at James and La's for gaming. Supper was yummy (thanks again James) and conversation was good. James was BBQ-ing when the wind picked up. He had time to turn off the BBQ, get in the house and close the door before the biggest dust storm I've every seen came up. You couldn't see the trees 50 feet from the house. It felt like a glimpse from the '30s.
Saturday was a WONDERFUL day. My mom came into the city and brought my niece, Cortney with her. We dropped Cortney with Eric and Aria for a few hours and went fabric shopping for fabric to make practice dresses for the wedding (testing patterns). I got enough fabric for three garments for $20. I was impressed. After we picked up the girls, we went to the zoo. Most of the animals were still inside but it was still really fun. The sealions were the most impressive (funny, they're one of the few things I remember from the zoo when I was three). We got to see them being fed and they would jump up on to the side of the pool by the glass and fall backwards into the pool. It was very cute.
In the evening we (being Davyd and I, not Mom and the girls and I) went to Gorra's birthday party. It was fun. Mostly just lounging around and talking. We don't spend enough time just talking. Must remember to buy B-day present for Gorra!
Sunday, we went to see Romeo and Juliet. Star recommended it as all the fighting was Capoeria. It was fun but still Romeo and Juliet (my least favourite Shakespeare. Angst, angst, angst. Blek! :P ). We spent the evening just hanging out with Eric and Star.
All in all, a good weekend but my house is still a mess. I guess I should do something about that this evening...
