recap

whew. i feel like i didn't have much of a weekend. i generally dedicate several hours to laying around and doing nothing, and there was no such luck this time. worked friday night, ran errands on saturday. got my oil changed at jiffy lube, and boy are they quick. i generally take my cars to the dealer for oil changes, but i didn't feel like driving all the way out to one when there is a jiffy lube right down the street. i pulled my truck up, and about 7 minutes later (and $42) they were finished. FORTY TWO DOLLARS FOR A FREAKING OIL CHANGE. is that a bit expensive, or is it just me? anyway, we had lunch at one of my favorite places in town (the brook) and stayed there for a while visiting with friends that happened to be there, too. it is an old, historic restaurant in town that has a great bar area. lots of tv's, fun bartenders - you know the scene. after a few hours we went home, took a power nap, and then got ready for dinner. after dinner, we decided to head back to the brook. it had been several hours, we had slept, and changed outfits.... so maybe it wasn't too blatenly obvious that we had spent the majority of the afternoon there, and were back for round two. hehe. 3 of my hot barbie doll friends friends showed up so it's always a good time. there are all kinds of boys coming up to us, but generally there's no one too extrememly interesting that approaches. most stay away for fear of rejection. HAHA. my eyes were on a boy across the bar seemingly having a MISERABLE time while his friend chatted it up with 2 sorority girls. friend either struck out or got tired of talking about fashion and celebrities, and headed over our way. his friend reluctantly came with him, looking like he'd rather be anywhere but there. i've been there, so i know how he was feeling. ugh -- it's awful to be out when you don't want to be and your friends are hitting on anything that has breath. i am easily the friendliest of my girlfriends, so it was completely in my nature to make friends with him and within a few minutes he was laughing and having a good time. well, he looked like he was having a much better time than he was with the sorority gals, anyway. lol. once he relaxed a bit, his witty humor came out and i was having a good time, too. before i started to like him very much, i told him he had better decide which girl he wanted to hit on since his friend looked like he was planted next to my wife for a while. he looked at me, and said "i came over here to talk to you." hmm, good for me since i had been eye-balling him earlier. i love it when things work out like that. he left with my number, and we had lunch yesterday. his friend and my wife got a long, so they came with. we ended up watching some basketball and then playing catchphrase later that evening. (have you PLAYED catchphrase? that game rocks.) by the time we left, we had spent about 10 hours with these boys. the kicker is, i still like being around him. so, we'll see. i always like them at first. give me two weeks, and i'll update ya. hehe. happy monday!
