Engaging

10 September, 2007

Long week

things for the shooting victims. It was tough to get through that and then immediately throw myself into football. But hearing Enter Sandman was amazing to get to cheer and scream and to be a wild Hokie again.

The game was terrible. We looked awful. My knee was killing me. Standing for that many hours (up since 7AM, tailgating, then 4 hour game) was NOT a good idea. We left with like 3 minutes to go in the game so I could get out of there without being trampled. Then I iced my knee and we stayed at my mom's tailgate for at least 3 hours.

Then the night some how went down hill. We went to justin's parents tailgate and drank there some more and played some games. Then decided we wanted to get some food, so the boys went straight to PK's and Kristen (Justin's little sister) and I walked through campus and to the memorial. That took forever, when we got to dinner everyone was finished. And not happy. So the night just took a poor, intoxicated turn. We just went home after that. And Sunday, Justin and I did nothing. Didn't even leave my mom's house. On Monday we went to the pool where I played with my nephew for the majority of the day and then I worked out.
Justin left and headed home later that day.

I headed down to Raleigh for work for the week on Tuesday morning. The drive was easy and work was busy. So my week went quickly. On Friday I drove back up through Blacksburg to pick up my mom for the weekend. she spent this past weekend with us in Falls Church. Friday night we went out to dinner at this great place in Clarendon that has the best seared tuna salad. Yummy! Saturday we didn't do much but went to the market and I worked out. Basically just sat around the house until 5ish, headed over to Dave's for a beer or two and then went to Rock Bottom for dinner. And then we went to some friend's place to watch the LSU game. It was horrendous. We left by half. I was so mad and frustrated at how TERRIBLE our coaching staff was. Finally I just went to sleep to end the misery.

Yesterday was also slow. Worked out, then went out to brunch. Then sat around the house again. My mom and I left around 4 and headed into the district. We ate at Zaytinya's, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE! It is Greek, Medeterrian food in tapas style dishes. So that was very good and then we went over to MCI for the American Idol concert. I was a bit apprehensive about this concert and yet it turned out pretty good. I had fun. It was all covers and I knew about 95% of the songs, so it was just entertaining. Then we went home, went to sleep, mom left this morning and I am back in the office for work.

Hopefully this will be a normal week. Aiming to eat healthy and eat at home all week, head down to Blacksburg on Friday for the Ohio game and then I am again down in Raleigh all next week for work again. boo.
