| Back from D.C. |
| Wednesday, July 02, 2008 |
 I'm back from my much needed time off in D.C. (don't get too excited over there). Went to visit an old friend of mine, Nicole, who I've known since I was probably 11 or 12. Never went to school with her, but we used to go to the same church growing up. Anyway, since I lost my camera on my last business trip, I have NO pictures. Sorry! I do have a few salsa dancing pics, but nothing to get excited about. Here's a brief summary of my trip.
Friday night: Flight was supposed to leave at 10:55pm. Got delayed until 12:20am. Changed departing gates about 3 times. Finally left LAX around... oh I dunno... 1am. Grrr
Saturday morning: 10:30am. Nicole picked me up from the airport and we met up with her friends at the nearest IHOP. Mmmmmm breakfast. Went back to Nicole's place and took a shower/changed. Left around 4pm to stop by Safeway and pick up chicken and beer for our tailgate. Drove to the Nissan Pavilion to see Dave Matthews! Traffic was horrible, had to cut in line since our lane was merging. Gave two bottles of beer to the jeep next to us in exchange for cutting-in-line privileges.
At the Dave concert: Tail gated with cold chicken and beer. Yum. Watched the hotties in army shorts toss the football around. Once inside, bought a margarita. The show was awesome! This is like my 4th Dave Matthews concert and by far my favorite. The venue was great. Except all three rows in front of us, nobody was dancing or even standing up. Bunch of lame-os.
Sunday: Slept in. Went to church with Nicole and her friends. Had Thai food afterwards. Drove out to the boonies of Virginia (or was it Maryland?) to visit another friend of Nicole's from her little Catholic college days. This girl literally lives on a farm. We played some bocchi (sp?) ball on the grass (since what else do you do on a farm?) and ate some fajitas.
Monday: Slept in. Stupid senior manager calls me asking why I'm not online. Because this is the first time I didn't bring my computer on vacation you bastard. Now leave me alone! Took the metro to downtown, ate at Rosa Mexicana (very good guacamole), then walked around to do
 some sightseeing (e.g. Washington monument, capitol, etc.) 8-10pm - had a Bachelorette party. No not the real kind, as in, watched the TV show. Graham Bunn is a hottie.
11pm - went salsa dancing for the first time. My favorite dance partner was James the cop. Hot. You can see my arm in this pic.
Tuesday: Had coffee/breakfast with Nicole then went to the airport.
That's about it, if you want to see a few salsa dancing pics, send me an email :)Labels: Travel |
