So yeah, this weekend was like mad fun. It started officially as soon as I left my job on Friday afternoon, and I was heading home. I'm starting to make really good friends with the people on the buses from Leonardtown, which will maybe produce some good partying nights later on...but anyway, I got on the bus home and soon thereafter headed on the the other MetroBus to downtown College Park metro where I hopped the train and found myself in Silver Spring Maryland to go watch the Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, which actually turned out to be pretty good. Not fantastic like Spiderman 2, but it was much, much better than part one. I didn't expect Julian McMaman to reprise his role as Doom let alone mix in with the Silver Surfer and get his powers. That was a nice twist, and of course having the Surfer's voice as Morpheus is always the shit. lol.
Anyway after that, I came back to my house and slept getting up the next day to Deedee, (my roomate Damon's caretaker) as I asked her out to lunch. I was gonna go to DuPont Circle to get my hair done and colored, but after looking at those prices, I decided against it. Instead DD and i went to Applebee's, where I bought her lunch and we chatted. Afterwards, I bought some bronze hair color and came back to the apartment where DD commenced to put it in. Then, after all of that, Nikki (the secretary in the EEO office) called me and asked me to come meet her in Silver Springs, with her friends. I wanted to stay at home and sleep, but I got up and went anyway getting there and meeting her friend Melanie and her boyfriend Danni. Then I met Nikki's friend Dick, and the five of us went out to eat at this Lebanese cafe, which I wasn't too fond of. Then we left and went to a bar called McGinty's, which was loud and ridiculous. However it was there that I had my first alcohol love, "Sex on the Beach" and I got to taste a new thing that I've always seen on Sex and the City, the Cosmotini. Turns out it's pretty good, as a mixture of vodka, cranberries, and lime. So yeah getting a really good and tipsy buzz from that, I came back and fell out for Sunday.
Where DD called and asked if I wanted to go to church with her. So I got dressed and left out, to head to this nice Baptist church, of which we arrived in the last 20 minutes of the message due to her daughter Joyce's love of smoothies, to which afterward she paid for dinner at Golden Corral (.....hmmmm can't say anything here but let's just claim there's more to wonder about the source) and then we went to Chuck E. Cheese's because Joyce's uncle's daughter was having a 5th birthday party. That place is crazy as hell. And a little scary. However i had to face all living hell when that rat faced bastard in a suit emerged from the back bringing back all memories with it. I hated that thing when I was a kid, and it was back in the flesh yesterday. To quote a memorable moment in a book I totally despise by Joseph Conrad in "Heart of Darkness" (thanks Ms. Helgeson!) ".......oh, the horror." And yeah that was bad.
But after that fiasco in a bad and five hours later, I came back with the intention of strictly heading to bed but instead finding myself chatting with a few delightful characters, one of which I have a date with on Wednesday (kinda, check the friends page!) who's a total hottie! lol. That WILL be a blog. Though maybe not an open one. Perhaps I'll have to call the "special" crew for individual updates....keep your eyes and ears open....
On a seperate note, I just want to add that I went to see the Holocaust Curator's lecture this afternoon about the persecution of Homosexuals in Germany during WWii, and I was really really disappointed to find that in a room full of people, I was the only black guy there. It's just a little depressing. Maybe I'm just doing too much.....?
