One Long Weekend
Tuesday, July 5th, 2005Well after work on Friday, I tried sushi for the first time. Lauren, Lisa and I met at Eric’s apartment then we went to Dearborn for a place called Crave. I had the resturant’s own version of the California Roll; California Crave, and the Philidelphia; salmon and cream cheese. The atmoshpere of the resturaunt threw me, but I enjoyed the food. Once we got back to RO, we went to Pronto! for desert and finally to Bastone’s Brewery.
On Saturday I spent most of the day at home, until Lauren got off work. Brian came with Lauren and me out to RO again. We met some people for drinks at Pronto! then walked over to O’Tooles for a girraffe. Adrian, a friend of Lisa and Eric’s that I met on Sexual Healing Day, was there. She’s a really fun person to go out with. Hopefully we’ll see her more since she’s closer for the summer.
Sunday Lauren and I went to Greenfield Village for the DSO’s Salute to America. It was amazing. We had a few hours before the concert, so we checked out the Edison exibits. I’ve never seen/heard the DSO perform in person. It was a great experience, especially when they play the 1812 Overture with cannons firing and fireworks bursting.
Monday was spent at Lauren’s with her family. After lunch, we lounged around in the pool for 4 hours. I got burned pretty bad, but its alright. Lauren wanted a iced coffee, so we went to Java House before dinner. Dinner was HUGE. Her mom made 2 full slabs of ribs, a whole chicken, a dozen ears of corn, beans and potato salad. Mind you, there were only 7 of us.
I’m so glad this is only a 3-day week for me. I get paid Thursday then have another 3-day weekend.
