Home now...
Got in after midnight Friday and citabria still wasn't back from carousing with her girlfriend. (She claims it was just a movie...but she was way tired and dehydrated the next day.*)
We got into the City somewhere around 1ish for the main goal of the weekend--getting to Macy's and adding things to our wedding registry. (More about our wedding registry adventure in our wedding journal.)
After that we walked over to her office so she could go over a few things with her partner. On the way, along 7th Avenue, there was a tight knot of Obama supporters but we didn't stop to get a sticker. After that we went to Rosa's in Union Square for dinner and had outstanding Mexican food and margaritas before heading back home talking about what kind of trouble fun there will be at the reception.
Sunday...was Sunday. citabria was wiped out from walking around Macy's. (Not to mention the aforementioned carousing on Friday night.**) We also had to pack a few things still at her house, including the stereo which was a bit of a challenge to get apart and into the car. Then, there was a sudden computer emergency from her partner that ate up over an hour of time trying to get resolved. Then, we had to go get breakfast*** which was crowded because it was all-you-can-eat pancakes day at the IHOP.
By time we got out of there, it was well after 3pm. We had wanted to drop in on DREAMATION Sunday but we had to start heading back for home****. Which we did, stopping at Rein's for dinner and now we are home.
And the bunnies are stomping around because they've run out of food, so we need to take care of them. Silly bunnies.

* Okay, I exaggerate slightly. But not by much. I blame her girlfriend, though, who has four kids and needs to get away from them from time to time.
** I'm not being mean, citabria. I'm just picking on you a little. :-)
*** Okay, maybe I was mean: I made you work without coffee.
**** We are sad about this because we wanted to see all the DE people again but when we looked up it was suddenly 3pm. :-(
