The Weekend That Was
I think I can get used to these 3 day weekends!
Now that I'm on my new shift I'm working Monday through Thursday, 10 hour days. Fridays I now have off and I have to say that I thought the weekend was going to go by real quick, but it didn't! Today was a surprise because I was like, wow I have another day left to do anything I want! The world is, as asuguy85 would say MA ~*OY-STUHR*~.
Friday I went to Rice University to have lunch with Paul. I hopped on the bus, then the light rail down to the University. It was a nice ride. The weather was warm and balmy. There are so many squirrels on campus running around its hilarious! They'll even come up to your hand if you hold it out for them. I enjoy city living.
Saturday, I went to my parent's house and did some laundry and visited for a while. Later in the evening I went to JR's house and hung out there a little bit. His work schedule is 3x12 so he works Friday - Sunday. He was so tired but he was nice enough to have me over for just a little while. I came home after all the clothes were done and watched Noah's Arc on DVD. The show is so campy but I can't help but watch it all!
Today, Sunday, I slept until noon. My cousin Andrea called me from California to talk about our party next Saturday. She even offered to let Paul and I stay at her house instead of us getting the hotel together. I'm not a couch-crasher. Never liked it! I'm all about taking care of myself and not inconveniencing anyone when I'm on vacation, but since our budget is tighter than my junior high gym clothes I thought about it and felt it would be best to stay with her and save the $300 bucks I would've spent on the hotel. Not my style, but since I won't have another vacation until later this year I have to make it last.
Speaking of vacations. I have 3 day weekends now which means I can do a whole of things with my free time. I was talking to my friend Hector yesterday, who lives the most amazing life (to me at least). He lives in Los Angeles and he and I were talking for about 2 hours and then he was like, "Jesse, these are the highlights of my life and we should get together with about 3 gallons of coffee and just catch up." I was like, that is a WONDERFUL idea! Tickets to L.A. are $250 total, it might be great to go out to L.A. and catch up and just relax. The only thing he wants me to stay at his place with him, but again... thats not me. I hate couch-crashing!
So, we'll see what comes down the pipe-line in the next few weeks. I am excited about it! We'll see what happens.
