A Good Weekend

The cupcakes went over well last night. 'Twas a fun evening, and I enjoyed getting to see the various folks who were there.
Waiting for coffee to finish steeping here in the french press this morning, then I'm getting cleaned up and heading out to brunch at Asylum with Stephen and Kevin. I've found 'tis better to get to Asylum right at 11 when they open because they'll actually have the daily specials available (and they're generally worth it), and you can find seating with a minimum of fuss. 2 pm? Good luck. Haven't been in a couple of months, so am looking forward to the good food. And time on the Metro to knit, of course. Then I'm going to be stuck reviewing a document for work for a bit, and hoping I don't get the same reaction I got last year when I pointed out typos in it ("Wait, you can't change the text now!" Then why have me review it, you wankers? Honestly).
Have my annual physical tomorrow, as well as a dermatologist visit to get checked out. Don't expect anything earth shattering will be found, but given the family history it's better to check than not. The worst part is the fasting for the blood tests. No, wait, I take that back, the worst part is the prostate exam, but the fasting comes in a close second. But we do what we must.
Picking JT up from the airport this evening on his way back from London and grabbing dinner with him. Sunday dinners with him seems to be becoming a regular habit, and it's one I'm glad we're getting into. He's one of my longest known friends in the area, and I enjoy the extra time with him now.

I found the Valle Sagrado blend when I visited Peru and it's my fave. Yes--out of all of the coffee available in Seattle...I order from South America.
...finally picked up knitting again and am working on baby socks. Keep posting about your projects--you're keeping me motivated (read: guilt tripped) to finish a few things.
