The Weekend that Was
Well, Jeff rolled into town for a short weekend visit.
It was really fun.
I started off the weekend playing pickup football. After scoring a few TD's, I picked up Jeff at Dulles Airport. We ate lunch at the Fish Market, a wonderful outdoor market that sells fresh seafood at cut rate prices. I had my favorite: 2 softshell crab sandwiches. LB had the crabcake, while Jeff munched on red snapper sandwiches. We also split a heavy box of steamed cajun shrimp. Mmmm...
We visited the Smithsonian Natural History Museum. Certainly the best exhibit there was the Insect Zoo, a trippy collection of fun swarming insects.
After meeting Jeff's friend from Med School, we had some coffee in Adams Morgan, and got a dirt-cheap meal of falafels and gyros.
We talked until late about geo-political issues and farts. Good times.
Sunday started off with a visit to the pandas at the National Zoo. Kathy, Jonathan, Tritia, and Amy met up with Jeff, LB, and me. Between making fun of the skinny flamingos and extended bird imitations, I'm depressed that Jonathan and Kathy were only in town for such a short period of time.
We got some Zzzz's at my place, then went to church for the evening service.
Sunday for dinner, I cooked t-bone steaks and we watched Harry Potter in mandarin. (LB wanted the practice).
Yup, all in all... good times.
Come visit D.C.!
