Well that was a rather pleasant weekend, unfortunately\u00a0punctuated\u00a0by brief bits of work. \u00a0Friday, for instance, I got rather caught up at work and totally missed out on my standard outing with The Boys. \u00a0By the time things got wrapped up I was pretty sure they would be gone, so I just headed home for some TV. \u00a0Donette, meanwhile, was out carousing with some bunch of hooligans, and stayed out until the unholy hour of 10:00. \u00a0Crazy!<\/p>\n
Saturday kicked off bright and early with a visit to the dentist. \u00a0What a way to start the day, ugh. \u00a0I got through that bit of misery, then we headed to Costco for some long-delayed shopping. \u00a0Amid the usual load of groceries, we picked up ten bags of mulch for a little yard work. \u00a0That project took a lot longer than estimated, as most do. \u00a0It turned out quite nicely though, the front of our house actually appears as if people live there now. \u00a0Of course, as we stood back admiring our two hours of hard labor, Kane (our bitter old tabby cat) sauntered into the mulch and promptly fouled the entire area. \u00a0Nice. \u00a0After that we got cleaned up and met my Mom up at 75th Street to celebrate Mother’s Day. \u00a0We had a very nice dinner, and while it may have been rather lame of me to ask her to drive \u00a0out to my ‘hood for dinner it was certainly appreciated. \u00a0As usual, I ate far too much, so I headed to the couch and moaned for the rest of the evening.<\/p>\n
Sunday, we let the post-church crowds clear out and then headed north to meet Donette’s parents for another celebration. \u00a0While I did have minor reservations about crossing the river, I must admit Donette made a good pick with Bonefish Grill. \u00a0I opted for the “mixed grill,” which was scallops, shrimp, and a small sirloin steak. \u00a0Other than some curiously prepared\u00a0zucchini, my dinner was delicious. \u00a0Two nice dinners in a row, I made out like a bandit for the holiday. \u00a0That outing effectively covered Sunday, we didn’t accomplish much the rest of the day. \u00a0Notably absent from the weekend activities was bike riding. \u00a0That little pastime is simply not getting off the ground this season, at least so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
