Happy Monday.\u00a0 I really should try updating this silly thing on Sunday, before Monday hits and I start my rapid descent into foul-ness.\u00a0 It might bring a cheerier tone to the page.\u00a0 Yeah, I’ll put that on my to-do list.\u00a0 Anyway…\u00a0 We started the weekend off on Friday by, of all things, going to the Brooksider.\u00a0 We really don’t go there much anymore, but I do enjoy my Friday afternoon table-time there, particularly when it’s sunny and 75 degrees out.\u00a0 There was a rather festive crowd there on this particular afternoon too, so we had just a fine time.\u00a0 Martin and Brice even showed up, and we spent a little time developing our plan for next years BBQ season.\u00a0 (As usual, not much of the plan has to do with improving our scores;\u00a0 Just how to make things easier on ourselves.)\u00a0 After that we headed back home, then went over to our neighbors house and crashed their party.\u00a0 We stayed just long enough to eat up all their pizza and meet their guests, then retreated back to our house.\u00a0 Didn’t want to overstay our welcome, you know;\u00a0 We were just hungry.\u00a0 I can’t understand why we don’t get invited over more.<\/p>\n
Saturday I got up pretty early and didn’t have anything to do, so I headed off to the gym to goof around for a while.\u00a0 I should probably do that more, it’s a rather nice diversion.\u00a0 That killed a few hours, then we walked Gabe down to the Brooksider for a little lunch.\u00a0 Did I just say we didn’t get to the Brooksider much?\u00a0 Well, it was a nice day for a walk, Gabe likes hanging out there, and we were hungry, so it just happened to work out.\u00a0 Gabe did just famously of course.\u00a0 I think he enjoys the attention from everybody.\u00a0 He was a little too<\/em> well behaved actually;\u00a0 I tried to get him to eat a few of the noisy KU fans that were gunking up the patio, but he was having none of it.\u00a0 After that, we headed across the state line (shudder) and went to my cousin Megan’s wedding.\u00a0 Wow, my suit has been out of the closet twice<\/em> this year, a new record.\u00a0 The reception was at the Hobb’s Building<\/a> downtown, which was a rather interesting place.\u00a0 We enjoyed all the good food and the jazz band for a while, then headed back home just in time to catch the end of the Missouri game.\u00a0 Shoulda stayed at the reception.<\/p>\n Sunday I got up with high hopes of implementing my new plan of using the day wisely.\u00a0 Didn’t really work out though.\u00a0 Hey, there were some really exciting games on, what could I do?\u00a0 Heck, for a while it even looked as though my fantasy team might win their first game.\u00a0 (Didn’t happen.)\u00a0 Donette, meanwhile, went on a rather rare cooking spree.\u00a0 She spent her afternoon making a big pot of chili, and baking a birthday cake for one of our neighbors.\u00a0 I found the cake a rather curious undertaking.\u00a0 I’ve had a good 20 birthdays since she has known me, and she hasn’t made me a cake on a single one of them.\u00a0 Yes, curious.\u00a0 Probably because I don’t really like<\/em> cake that much.\u00a0 Yeah, that’s probably it.\u00a0 Anyway, after wasting my day in front of the TV, I finally managed to migrate from the couch to the patio to enjoy the nice evening weather a bit.\u00a0 We made a nice little fire and sat around eating cake;\u00a0 Can’t beat that.\u00a0 The cake, incidentally, was quite good.\u00a0 Maybe I’ll get one for my birthday next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy Monday.\u00a0 I really should try updating this silly thing on Sunday, before Monday hits and I start my rapid descent into foul-ness.\u00a0 It might bring a cheerier tone to the page.\u00a0 Yeah, I’ll put that on my to-do list.\u00a0 Anyway…\u00a0 We started the weekend off on Friday by, of all things, going to the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=305"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
