After complaining about the sub-par summer weather here in the great Pacific Northwest, Saturday blows in with a humid warmth. Now I'm all about heat wherever I can get it -- maybe it's the Texan in me. But this humidity just made me sleepy. Embarrassingly, we did absolutely nothing all day. I think I took three separate naps. I didn't work in the yard, I didn't clean house. Nope.
We did eventually get a call from our old neighbors who were all sitting in the cul de sac drinking beer, and invited us to join them. It was a little awkward driving to an impromptu driveway beer party -- this is something that happens organically. Somehow, being invited and having to drive to it makes it seems not-so-impromptu. However, I was grateful that they thought of us, and it felt like old times sitting outside, chatting and watching the kids play.
Once Sunday rolled around, we decided to make up for lost time. We went to an early show of Kung Fu Panda. The Woodinville theatre offers $5 tickets for any showing on a weekend before noon. Unfortunately, the movie left a lot to be desired. Other things we did that day: hit a bucket of balls at the driving range, a quick trip to Costco, some time logged at the off leash dog park, had some friends over for a bbq dinner, and went to listen to some music at a local "battle of the acoustic bands". Not a bad way to end the weekend.
Oh, and my camera is broken. This blog won't feel right until I can add pictures. I'd better take care of that soon....
