Another Weekend Gone

Since my last posting was pretty much a short novel, I'll keep this one quick.  This past weekend was the Superbowl, which is cool, I guess.  I didn't care too much about it since neither of the teams were ones that I particularly care for.  Jason, my step-dad, is a big time Steelers fan, and my friend, Anthony, is a big time Packers fan... so that was kind of cute.  I ended up watching the game at Derek's friend's house, and a bunch of people came over, including Laura, which made it even more fun!  Laura left right before half-time, and then Derek and I dipped right at half-time... it was fun to meet even more of Derek's friends, I definitely had a good time.
Backing up to Friday night, I ended up going out to Union Jacks in Ballston with Derek and his friends - this ended up being a really fun night.  I had never been there before, so I wasn't sure what to expect... and I found myself really enjoying the company of the people that were there.  I also drank a lot that evening, which could have something to do with me having such a great time, but it was totally worth it.  The hangover on Saturday morning wasn't too bad though, and I eventually killed it altogether with some meds and Zumba at Gold's! I convinced Derek to join me at the gym that morning, and after each of us worked out we went back to my place to eat, and then he passed out while I took a shower and got ready.  We were still hungry when we left my house so we ended up crushing some burgers at Fudruckers (hello magical burger heaven).  When we got to his house, it was his turn to take a shower while I got a good nap in, and once we were ready to leave, we went to the movies to see "Black Swan", which, in my opnion, was AMAZING.  Derek didn't quite agree, which is understandable, he's a guy ;) 
Once we left the theater we hit up this place off Route 50 called "Picante", which served some good Mexican food, and some extra large margaritas (just my style)... all-in-all, it was a great rainy day spent with D-Rock... I really enjoyed myself, and definitely needed the relaxation.

So now it is Monday morning, back to the grind for me while Derek is home sick :(  Hoping he feels better soon ... Maybe he needs some chocolate...oh wait, or Nyquil..

Also, I want to go back to Cancun.. or Dominican Republic.  I'm dying for some warm sunshine and a crystal clear beach with a frozen margarita in my hand........
