a weekend off

Had my first full weekend off work in a while. It was delightful. Saturday Greg and I ran errands and did some shopping. I got a new pair of shades. Saturday night we joined a bunch of friends at Tom & Brett's for dinner. They won a catered dinner at the recent Pride Center Annual Dinner and Auction. The dinner was unbelievable. An eight courses italian feast, nearly each course served with an accompanying wine. We were told to pace ourselves, and that was tough with such delicious food. More details from the dinner can be found here on Tom's blog, with a picture of my place setting and menu.
On Sunday we hung out with Michele on the last day of her break between spring and summer classes at the university. We had lunch at the new Bravo restaurant in Fairlawn. Yes, more italian food. More wonderful and tasty italian food. The we caught a screening of Iron Man. It was pretty good. I had my doubts with Robert Downey, Jr. playing an action hero. He was, in fact, very good.
I've got a busy week at work coming up. Thursday, I'll be in Washington D.C. for the day. Be sure to check back here for twitter updates all that day.
