weekend wrap-up

dinner on friday night

the above photo looks hella better on my mac – and way too dark on my windows machine…..

i had planned to post yesterday afternoon about the weekend’s doings – when i found myself in a flurry of phone calls from people i haven’t spoken to in a very long time… first steph called and we talked for quite a bit (i have seen her recently), then jasmyn, then kevin, then my friend dustin who is in jail… and then it was time for bed (and i never finished my paper i promised myself i would finish yesterday either).

somewhere in the midst of the phone calls i made my flight reservation to san francisco (this was after i confirmed with jasmyn what day she would like me to come in on, but before i confirmed with kevin i could stay at his place for three days). in any case, my holiday still has a somewhat disorganized feel to it, but i’m just letting that go so i can get on with things. my friend who was originally going to drive me down the coast had agreed instead to drive me from san fran to la near the end of the month – but reading his blog today i see that it looks as though he is changing his mind. changing his mind isn’t a problem – but i really wish he would let me know rather than me having to read his blog to see where he is at. it makes me feel — well, incidental — which is not where i want to be with people who are my friends. i am starting to realize that this person *really* can not be counted on…. which is too bad because i think he’s pretty cool otherwise. it looks at this point that i won’t be seeing him on this trip because of the flake factor.

in other news, friday night dinner was loads of fun, i managed to get me a pair of new boots after work – and went for a few (but not too many) drinks after stuffing ourselves full of gluten-meats and stir-fried veggies. we had about 16 people at dinner (including the three kids – one who is pictured below doing moves for the benefit of my camera in front of the restaurant). it was very low key. tomorrow is my actual birthday, but i highly doubt anything will happen of interest since i have nothing planned other than a regular day at work…..
