Memorial Weekend
Memorial Weekend felt like one big, long day…
05/26/06, Friday - The usual Happy Hour with the guys and running around to get everyone’s change of clothes for the night and for the next day. They all crashed at my place with the intentions of waking up early the next day to head down the shore and not get caught in traffic.
05/27/06, Saturday - Leaving early to go down the shore did not quite work. Luckily, we didn’t catch traffic - this was quite unusual. Spent the whole day down the shore. As much as I’m not a big fan of the Jersey shore (I got spoiled with the beautiful beaches of the Caribbean), I had a good time of not doing anything. All we did was lay on the beach, catch some sun and drink. Decided to hit a Cuban restaurant before heading back home. Exhausted!
05/28/06, Sunday - Rochelle’s bro, at the last minute, decided to have a barbecue. Good reggae music all afternoon and all night, drinks, drinks, more drinks and great food - can’t beat jerk chicken on the grill! It’s been so long… The barbecue lasted ’till the wee hours of the morning.
05/29/06, Monday - Another last minute barbecue. I guess this is what happens when you have more than one group of friends - there’s always something to do. Water gun fights, dominoes, water balloon fights (which resulted a toe injury, bummer!), soccer and "fake" baseball.
I’m just now trying to recuperate from this long weekend, and the week is half way over…
