This was damn near the perfect weekend for me. Cody worked until friday morning. I accidently took a nap that lasted most of the day then woke up around 11 pm or so and watched Dave Navarro win at celebrity poker then took a long bath and read for a while.

Early Saturday morning we took Winter to the dog park and she got lots of playing time with normal, well-behaved dogs which was nice. Then we came back and took a nap again because we had to go down to his parents house Saturday night. His grandfather is quite ill so Cody’s mom was up there making him dinner so we joined them. We were also behind on some tech support at a few houses so Cody worked at his aunt’s house while I checked the one at his parents house. We aren’t very reliable for a lot of things as far as these folks are concerned - we don’t call often or come to a lot of their parties or remember birthdays but we usually build a new computer to give the family about every year and a half when we gut and upgrade our old systems. And we go down to Los Lunas every few months and work on stuff. So while I was working on his parents’ computer I went over to Dooce’s site to show photos of her hair to my mother-in-law because she offered to cut it for me. She hasn’t had a shop in a few years but she’s always happy to cut my hair when it needs it and while the great color job I got back in Birmingham for Wedfest ‘04 was great my hair was getting scraggly and annoying with all the swimming. Now it’s about chin length just like I like it. Then we went to the big scary Wal Mart on the way home so Cody could get some nicorette patches - which were supposed to be forty-three dollars but kept ringing up as ten. We had the girl check and everything but ten dollars it was.

We didn’t get home until about 3 am and I got to sleep around 5:30. Then Jocelyn came to the house at about 2 I think and we went to the gym. The location we usually go to had its pool closed for cleaning so we went on to a different one. What’s the point of working out if I don’t get my swimming reward?? My house is pretty much exactly between those two locations but we decided we like our usual location better. I’m really getting into a good routine with it but I’m noticing it’s getting harder to get my heart rate up to where I want it which is good.

So after much stretching/cardio bike/weight lifting in various forms/water aerobicising/kickboarding/doing laps I showered and really enjoyed my short hair then Jocelyn dropped me off and Cody took me for sushi..again!!

Like I said, perfect weekend. If only we could keep the dog from locking herself in the bathroom when we leave…
