Now Playing: Steelers vs. Chargers
Topic: Weekend happenings
This 3 day weekend went by entirely too quickly! I can't believe that it's already over... but at least I have a short week!
Friday night I went out to dinner with "Diesel", my ex-roomie... we got crabs at Kauffman's... I had a craving for crabs all day on Friday and when I told Brian, he told me I should call Diesel and ask if he wanted to go... so we went, then went out to Bamboo Bernie's, formerly Caesar's... this kind of redneck place in "The Dena". It's actually the new Steelers fan club, so Brian and I had been there the previous week to watch the Steelers vs Pats game. Anyway, it's a pretty cool place now. And just in case you're wondering, I haven't sold out on my beloved Skins, I'm still a Redskins fan, but I will support my honey's team, too. Especially since they're good - and they're not the Ravens, haha. ;) Of course, I've been to more Ravens games than anything else... I'm going to look into getting tickets for the Skins vs. Dallas game in December... excited about that one! I'm debating over whether or not I should really shell out the money for *great* seats, but I'm considering it... I've never felt that I've had the "full" experience of a game, because my seats have never been that great. Last year (actually earlier this year) I had obstructed view seats that were really bad, and the time that I saw the Skins before that, they were in the corner section of the endzone, in a position that wasn't great to see the action. We'll see, I guess.
Anyway... I digress.
Saturday Brian and I went to Baltimore & road the duck boats... it was too yucky to go flying... :( Duck boats were fun, though... went out to dinner at an italian place and then went to some awful party. Yeah, it was really bad. Yesterday we watched the Skins game at Bamboo Bernie's... it was tough to lose, but they played a lot better than I thought they would, and even though they lost maybe people will give them more respect since it wasn't a blowout. Would've gone into overtime if it weren't for a missed 2 point conversion. :( Wah!
Today was lunch at El Salto's with a few friends, then went to a friend of Brian's (Jen) to see her & her 2 week old little boy, who was very adorable. :) Then we ran to Mills, did a little shopping at a few places, then the movies (saw Waiting, it was pretty good)... afterwards we went to Modell's and I bought some Skins and Steelers paraphenelia (did I spell that right??)... then went to dinner at Bonefish with Brian's parents... then went to Best Buy, Dick's sporting goods for a raincoat for Brian, then Target. Yep, busy day, but I got a lot accomplished.
*yawn*
And now I'm watching the game!
Well, I have to get off of here... have to research all of my ticket options. ;) And put my new comfy jersey knit sheets on my bed with my new quilt that I bought at Target... very excited about that purchase!!
Hope that everyone had a nice weekend.
