Wow, what a weekend!!
Michael and I went to Dallas to hang out, just the 2 of us. We went up Friday night and stayed at the Doubletree in Downtown. It was nice, the best part ...I got to sleep in until 10am on Saturday. I pulled the shades together, turned on my industrial fan and cranked the A/C down to 60 and slept like a freakin log! It was the most awesome experience of my life. Especially as I sit here at work and think about my sleep last night. Kamdyn in the middle waking me up at all hours asking for her "tup" and it being 75 degrees in my bedroom. I had my fan going but there is something about that cold A/C air blown right on to you. You know what I mean, when you get out of the bed and start shivering, even though it is July and 95 degrees outside. So we got up Saturday and just took our time. We went to the Sixth Floor Museum, it is the book depository where JFK was shot from. The history of that day is just amazing. I can't imagine being there or even being alive at that time. It was so shocking and awful. The pictures of Jackie after it happened, made me want to cry. I walked around the museum with tears in my eyes, and the knowledge that we will never know exactly what happened that day.
We walked around West End for a while and tried to go to the Aquarium but the line just to get in was wrapped around the building and we were not waiting for hours in the heat. So we went back to the Hotel to see if we could find a movie theatre close by. The front desk said there was one 10 mins from the hotel so off we went. After driving around for 30 minutes we passed Speed Zone and decided that would be fun. Michael and I raced on go carts, he won, I got lapped by a man and his kid. I am not a competitive driver apparently. If someone came by, I let them pass. Them Michael did the drag racing, needless to say he will never have a career in drag racing. I think he came in last place 2x and 4th place once. Then we went in to play in the arcade. It was fun but admittedly I am not an arcade person. Just not that girl. I did get him to take a cheesy picture with me though....
Later that evening we met up with Bo and Heather at the IMPROV in Arlington to see Aisha Tyler, she was funny just a little too vulgar for me. Every other word out of her mouth was the F word. I am just not a big F word person, and crazily enough my husband, who by the way thinks F is a verb, adjective and noun was a little put off by her language. He said that an attractive woman dropping F bombs makes them a lot less attractive. She was funny though.
Sunday we got up and just came home. All in all the weekend was good we had a really good time. Can't wait to do it again. We got to Michael's sister's house to get Kam and she has pink eye in both eyes. Yay! I got to hold her down 2x on Sunday to put medicine in her eyes. The last time she just told me that she likes her eyes pink and wants to leave them like they are. Poor baby! She gets to stay with Nana today since she can't go to school with pink eye, so she was not too terribly upset about being "sick".
