If I am Dead on Monday, Here's Why...

Here are my plans for the weekend --

  • Friday: birthday dinner, meet a friend who just moved to town for drinks, attempt to get to bed at semi-reasonable hour

  • Saturday 6 a.m.: Wake up. Get dressed. Chug down bottle or two of water and eat a small breakfast.

  • Saturday 6:45 a.m.: Get on metro

  • Saturday 7:15 a.m.: Pick up race packet

  • Saturday 7:15-8:00 a.m.: Wander around the race area and complain a lot about getting up so damn early on a Saturday and state over and over again that if it were a weekday, I'd still be in bed.

  • Saturday 8 a.m.: Race begins.

  • Saturday 8:40 a.m.: Finish race.

  • Saturday 8:41 a.m.: Desperately search for water and a banana.

  • Saturday 8:41-9:00 a.m.: Wander around and collect free stuff. Meet up with rest of team. Decide on place to get breakfast.

  • Saturday 9:00-10:30 a.m. Continue to drink a gazillion gallons of water. Eat breakfast.

  • Saturday 10:30 a.m. Metro home.

  • Saturday 11:30-12:30: Boxing

  • Saturday 12:30-12:45: Take much needed shower.

  • Saturday afternoon: Barbecue. Possibly drive up with TS to Baltimore to pick up his dad (although possibly hang around on the couch in some air conditioning while I let him take my car). Also, attempt to find time to do grocery shopping.

  • Saturday evening-night: Nats game with TS and his dad.

  • Saturday night: Drive up to Baltimore to bring TS's dad back up to his hotel.

  • Saturday afternoon/evening: Drive up to Baltimore to have dinner with TS's dad up there. (Former plan of sitting in the 95 degree heat to watch a baseball game between two teams none of us care about has been disregarded.)

  • Sunday 8 a.m.: Get up too damn early for a weekend again.

  • Sunday 9:00-10:30 a.m.: Go bowling.

  • Sunday morning: Sleep in (hopefully). (Bowling companions have lost there ever-loving minds and decided to golf OUTSIDE in the SUN when it is NINETY FIVE DEGREES out instead.)

  • Sunday late morning: Meet Nick for coffee.

  • Sunday afternoon: Work. BOO!

  • Sunday evening/night: Relax. Finally. I hope.

    So, did you die? By the way, I'm in town from Jun 23-27, though I'm getting kind of late on Monday. Let me know if you're free and we can meet up (drinks or dinner on me, since I'm per diemed quite nicely).

    I don't think I have any plans during that week... the only night that might not work is Wednesday, because I take boxing, but it if turns out that is the only good day for you I can totally skip it.

    Tuesday is perfect. I'm staying at the Mandarin-I'm pretty certain it's near L'Enfant Plaza since that's where my agency is.
