Learned some Spanish today - siga sonando, pendejo! This means “dream on, asshole!” I am giddily hoping someone will say something inappropriate to me today so that I can practice it! Dream on ASSHOLE!
So last night, my parents took Kevin and myself out to dinner at P.F. Chang’s, which they had never been to before. Thankfully the food was Chinese enough to their liking - I got a little nervous when my mom started commenting about all the white people sitting near us stabbing enthusiastically at their food with their chopsticks.. and then she told me that the menu with its fancy Chinese writing on the cover (that was pretty enough to impress me) actually said “Chinese Restaurant”. Eeks. But, all turned out well, the cleverly named Hot Fish is delicious for those that want dish recommendations. Mm-mm.
And TWO nights ago we went to a surprise birthday party in Alexandria for one of Kevin’s coworkers. It was at a large pink place called Generous George’s something-Pasta-something-something Pizza. The birthday girl arrived, screamed, and promptly ordered a ginormous blue cocktail that turned her teeth blue. I was having a grand old time, hanging out with more asians than I’ve seen in one room in a long time, quite pleased with myself for having blown the biggest… balloon in the room, when the song “The Freshman” came on the radio (guilt-stricken sobbing with my head on the floor..) … and someone in the room said Hey! This really takes me back! Sophomore year in high school! And then I was old. And sad.
We left the young asians to wrestle with their large cocktails, and headed to Georgetown to sit by the water and watch beautiful people walk around. The Coast Guard was there with their small boat.. and very very large 007-meets-the-marines gun, and I believe one of the yachts was having a Greek party aboard, as we heard lots of loud music and shouting and clapping. I listened for an OOMPAH!!, but maybe they only say that at weddings. It is also amazing the number of men that shamelessly bring tiny puppies to the waterfront to get women to talk to them.

Ok!! Okokokok… This time I mean it. I’m doing this blog thing. Plus I just found out that blogger lets you post pictures for free without signing up for a bunch of BS crap or paying for membership, so maybe I’ll post more now. Pictures. Of you guys, wa-ha-ha.. But, for now, it’s late…
