On Friday another friend from college came down for the weekend. T doesn't live too far away, but the drive involves dealing with I-35, which ALWAYS means there will be traffic and stupidity happening. However, he did make it down, and we had a good evening of food (Hawaiian meatballs and chicken casserole a la mandi), drinks (wine, soco/rum with Dr pepper) and shark movies (deep blue sea 1 and 2). My fella was not able to join us because he had to do inventory at work... soooo rude being called in on your day off. Saturday we were able to meet up with my fella, he came over and we went out because my apt is pretty comfy for 2, but not really conducive to 3. We had food at city works, then were gonna see a movie, but the seats were basically all taken, so we walked around, got gelato, and decided to take T to holocron and Free Play (an arcade place). Holocron was fun, as always, and on our way to free play we were surprised at the amount of people in the area. We had stumbled upon the trinity parks Pride Fest. LOL. We eventually found parking and went to free play. We paid the fee to get in ($10 per person) then wandered around the arcade. They had tons of games, and all are free. We then got drinks, some food, and T kept our booth while J and I went to play. He found out I'm actually pretty good at Dr Mario and so my "I don't really play video games" isn't 100% correct. I told him the exceptions are Super Mario 3 and Dr Mario. Lol. Then J decided he wanted pizza, so we went to Serious Pizza. Now, last time I was there we couldn't get by the slice. That's no longer the case, each of us got a HUGE slice of pizza and then we headed home. I got pretty silly because I was up WAY past my bedtime. We decided my sleepy spleen was causing my goofiness.
All in all it was a nice weekend. Conversation flowed fairly easily, it felt a little weird being out and about so much, but that's probably because T and I tend to be homebodies when we get together. I may need to get a beanbag chair or something for when more than 1 person is over. Lol... please excuse my brain, it just went to "you're all pushing 40 at least and you're gonna get a BEANBAG?" YUP, and we are gonna laugh SO MUCH when people go to get up out of it!! 😆😆😆 comedy always wins.
So next weekend is round 2 of my fella meeting my people in the area. The process of meeting each other's friends and determining compatibility is fascinating. I mean, J and I get along great, his friends are lovely, and my friends are amazing, so there should be no need for nerves and yet... yeah, we both a little nervous. Friendships are so important, its not like a make-or-break situation, but knowing they sometimes see thing that the people in the relationship are blind to can cause some nervousness to the people in the new relationship. I truly think it will all go well, we will have a lovely visit, and plans to go to San Antonio will be made. (We already have some plans for that trip, which should be MUY interesting.)

Anywhoo, that was my weekend. T headed home, so im doing my normal prepping for the week (including plans for the gym, which i have been severely lax on) and probably throw on Deep Blue Sea 3 (that's right, they made 2 sequels). Gonna be lazy in the A/C the rest of the day since it's been super hot out. Stay hydrated, friends! Hugs and love
