juliebataIt may not sound like much to you busy folks out there, but for once I actually had stuff to do, and I enjoyed my weekend. A few days before, I left a message for my friend Pat, who I hardly ever get to see (she has two jobs). A miracle- she was free on Friday night, so we got together for dinner and a long, much-needed chat!
It was lovely. I showed her LiveJournal. She was intrigued, but wouldn't have time for it...
Saturday was the previously mentioned ice skating, SUCH a great time! I hope we can go again soon.
Later that day, I got a call from a friend I used to work with, Elliott. One of the nicest people on the planet, he said he had an extra ticket to a play Sunday night, and would I want to go? I said of course! The play was one I wanted to see, I just didn't have anyone to go with. Elliott is in his early 70's, as active as someone half his age, works part-time just to keep busy, and always has a joke on hand. He made working at a boring insurance company tolerable. By total coincidence, he also lives in the same apartment building I just moved out of. He loves animals, so he made the perfect cat-sitter for Ariel! He wouldn't let me pay for the theater ticket, or for dinner after. It's nice to have a friend like that! He caught me up on the latest gossip from the old office, since he still works there. It was a wonderful evening.
The play was called "Lobby Hero" about the late night activities in a high rise apartment building in New York City. It was a comedy with some serious subject matter, really well done.
