I had a lovely weekend visiting with my gal pals that I don't get to see very often. L and I spent a leisurely Friday getting cute pedicures at this quiet little shop. As if that wasn't relaxing enough we then headed over to this Japanese restaurant to have lunch and catch up some more. It was great as the waitress sat us on the opposite side of the restaurant from everyone else so it was super cozy and again nice and quiet.


We then went shopping and eventually ended up at her friends place......this like 70ish year old man that loooovveesss to party. He has this crazy bar set up in his living room full on with a 200 CD changer, flashing lights and bizzaro nick nacks. We stayed there for a few brewskis and then headed on our way. I'm not going to lie I would have stayed there all night but it was dinner time, he was already trashed and we both had to get home.


On Saturday a few of us got together with a friend who we rarely get to see as she lives a few hours away. We went for lunch and the conversation just kept a flowing. We reminisced about old times, laughed about current goings on and of course our inappropriate thoughts IE Why don't we date someone who is in AA.....then we'd have a DD......terrible I know but kinda funny nonetheless. Clumsy me of course catapults my chopstick off the table and it flips and flips through the air and thankfully lands right beside me. I seriously thought it was going to hit someone behind me in the face....I would have died had that happened. It was really great to have lunch with the girls as we laughed so hard tears were streaming down our faces. We're all absolutely ridiculous I love it!!


LD and I heard that there were baseball tournaments going on all weekend so we hit up the Wrinkle Ranch to check out the talent. She got hit on by a 43 year old man and Burt Reynolds twin asked me to dance.....I declined. That place is fantastic for entertainment as the clientele are VERY interesting and run anywhere from 19 to 85 years old. The old men line up near the washrooms to oogle the women, cougars are everywhere and the pieces of clothing people wear are priceless. They played old tunes like Funky Cold Medina, Strokin and Just a Friend by Biz Markie. Seriously what could be better!!!!

We finished off the weekend on a patio bar for lunch. The weather was phenomenal and we figured the place would be packed but we were sooooo wrong. It was like a ghost town down there which was surprising as it's the place to be in the summer and it was nice and hot out. We could have cared less as we got a prime parking spot and our choice of table so it was perfect.

Clearly my waistline isn't enjoying my eating in restaurants everyday as I seem to have magically gained ohhhhh 8 pounds back this summer. I mean when you think about that calorie wise it's really quite disgusting as 3500 calories equals one pound. Spin class tonight anyone??

I'm glad you specified that you got a cute pedicure instead of an eagle talon pedicure or a troll foot pedicure. You cleared up much confusion.

Sounds like a fun weekend! I am laughing at the 70ish man though. I just have these visions of my Dad partying with some youngsters. lol

You've been fitting a lot into your weekends Miss Ash, nice use of time. And a good seat at a restaurant is awesome every single time. Finally, I haven't heard 'Strokin' for far too long. I need to put that on my iPod. Thanks for that . . .

Too bad that old guy couldn't have joined you at the bar. He probably would've been a treat.

Christielli said...

Your Friday sounds lovely.

That bar sounds like a wicked place for a great game of YBF. ;)

LOL Yah, it would be nice to date a guy in AA for a perma-DD but wouldn't it suck when you want to have a nice quiet evening in with a bottle of wine, and only you can drink, and you get all giggly and silly, and he's all serious and sober. Blah.

I need to go to the gym too, but I stayed at work too late and missed my yoga class. :(

WIGSF, everyone keeps commenting that my toes look like candies or chocolates because of the designs....so cute!

JLee, oh this guy is awesome! I can't even begin to explain him.

2DP, I hadn't heard that song either in quite some time....I'll bet a bunch of those old dirty men went home and did just that!

Wiwille, oh he would have been a riot. Maybe next time I'll suggest it but I have a feeling he parties early.

Christielli, oh man we shouldn't even be allowed to play TYB there .... but we do!!! It's like shooting fish in a barrel I tell ya!

The part about the old man was really unexpected. I just don't know how you ended up there.

You are becoming more mysterious with every blog post.

Rawbean, my friend is really good friends with this guy, his house is like the party house apparently.
