Saturday I headed over to the Boy Scout's with two things in mind. A vespa ride and gelato. Luckily we accomplished both.
Around 1pm I drove Dougal over to Toluca Lake with a vegan lasagna on the passengers seat for dinner later than night. After putting the pasta in the fridge we hopped on the vespa and went to look at houses followed by a quick trip to Pinocchio's for some gelato. The guy who played Luke's brother-in-law on Gilmore girls was there. It took me a minute to figure out who he was. After gelato and a little more touring about the neighborhood we switched cars for a trip to Ikea. Mister needed a new rug and so we got him one. By the time we were done and the lasagna had been cooked and eaten I was wiped out. So, it was time for a disco nap before the get down.
I made the mistake of going for fashion above function for our Saturday night soiree. I looked impeccable in an early 1960s black dress that had no room for breathing. But, alas, I froze my tush off. Turns out the party was outside, rather than inside. I tried to be stoic and resisted the Mister's coat for as long as possible, but eventually I was just too cold and took his blazer.
Sunday I managed to get us both soy lattes and pastries from Porto's and due to the time change had more time to sit around the kitchen table than previously alloted for. Finally I made my way home and got ready for tea with M, E, and C. We hit up Chado for some lunch. It was wonderful. Later that day I was suppose to go to church with Q, but she canceled. So I called up N and we hit Priscilla's for knitting and tea. By 4:30 I was starting to feel ill, by 6:30 I was asleep on the couch.
Well, that was my weekend. How was yours?
Sardos on Friday-- place was empty, sang until my throat failed to work.
Bad movie marathon on Saturday night turned into a sleep-over and an early Sunday breakfast-and-football party. Then I shot my part of an internet short, recovered briefly, then visited my friend who's recovering from surgery while we watched the Simpsons and Family Guy.
