Weekend

I finally brought my computer back to life today (the battery was dead), so I can explain the best parts of my weekend.

Let's start with Thursday -

Thursday highlights are -
- Getting a free book during my philosophy class on capitalism and justice. A fellow student had a few extras and handed me one.
- Watching Vince play soccer at Cole Field House because he prances when he runs. I'll take a video at his game next week.
- Going to Bentley's at night and ordering my new favorite drink, an Amaretto Sour.

On to Friday -
Friday was even more busy. I ventured into D.C. to visit my friend Amber who goes to GW and to watch the Georgetown vs. Maryland men's lacrosse game with Vince. After eating at Chipotle with Amber and reminiscing about working at Cold Stone, Vince and I ran into some trouble getting to Georgetown. I still don't understand why the Metro doesn't have a stop there, but needless to say we didn't get to the game in time (actually we didn't get there at all). I did learn a lesson though - always get off the Metro at Foggy Bottom and walk, it is so much easier than taking the Circulator bus from Dupont Circle.

The biggest highlight of Friday, besides seeing Amber, was I was finally reunited with my car! Now I can run errands and not rely solely on public transportation and friends.

Saturday -
On Saturday I saw "Acts of Valor" with friends. Here is the trailer from YouTube:



It is a true war story that made me realize how lucky I am to have soldiers fight for my freedom. Although the many fight scenes made me close by eyes and cringe, I recommend you watch it to fully understand the service soldiers provide.

With all that being said, I leave with some final insights:

- Amaretto Sours are delicious, but are sometimes too sweet.

- Bacon on a George Forman Grill is better than bacon in the microwave.

- I now love Skinny Soy Vanilla Lattes from Starbucks - thanks Caroline!

- I could eat the Italian Night Club from Jimmy Johns every day.

- Apparently I really liked food this weekend because the last four insights are about food.

- I can't wait for Spring Break even though I am not going anywhere.

- I watch too much HGTV for my own good.

- Sleepy Sundays are the best type of Sundays.

Until next time, enjoy lying in bed and watching HGTV while eating an Italian Night Club and drinking a Skinny Soy Vanilla Latte on me.
