The Better Part of Me...

Recipe for a (nearly) Perfect Weekend
2004-06-14 @ 9:21 a.m.

FRIDAY

** Burritos as big as your head and ice cream that tastes exactly like birthday cake.

** Tornado sirens

** Standing on the front porch with Sarah T., both of you certain that the man across the street had been struck by lightening

** Discovering that the man across the street was not, in fact, struck by lightening but is instead dragging a metal ladder out from his garage and then climbing it to do something on the roof. In the middle of an intense thunderstorm.

** Chick flicks

SATURDAY

** Shopping Spree. New shirts. New shorts. New swimsuit. New dress. New skirt. NEW PURSE THAT YOU LOVE WITH ALL YOUR HEART. (You are not, generally speaking, a purse girl)

** Napping while it rained

** Showing up at the bad bar (TM Weetabix) at the exact same time as the former target of the now defunct "Operation Gold Digging Whore" and sitting in the car until you�re sure you�re able to avoid awkward encounters.

** Yummy maintenance guy. At the bad bar (TM Weetabix). AGAIN.

** Staring at yummy maintenance guy from across the room.

** "OMG yummy maintenance guy is here"

"He is? Where?"

"Um. Did you see that guy walk by in the red shirt and hat?"

"YEAH! HE WAS HOTT!!"

"Yeah. That wasn't him."

** Checking out yummy maintenance guy to make sure you still have a read on him, glancing away and finding, only seconds later that yummy maintenance guy had taken a bizarro route around the bar and is now passing right by your table.

** Coming within millimeters of brushing elbows with yummy maintenance guy.

** Losing the ability to communicate for a full minute after yummy maintenance guy almost gives you a heart attack and watching Sarah T's jaw hit the floor as the realization hits her.

** Bailing on the bad bar now that your primary source of eye candy has left the building and driving all around the city before deciding that it�s just not a very exciting night on the town (yummy maintenance guy antics aside).

** Burritos that are significantly smaller than your head.

SUNDAY

** THE SUN IS SHINING!!!!

** Spontaneous urge to take Oliver on a 4 mile walk at 7:30 a.m. (an endeavor that leaves you with pleasant aches in your thighs and buttocks)

** "Morning after" phone call from your BFF that takes you back to the old days

** Making "Summer Music" CD's for Sarah T. and Barbie to take on their camping trip this week

** Brats on the Grill.

** Daquairies on the back patio

** Sleepy puppy at your feet.

** Sunset
