Living for the Weekends

As the weather gets better and spring is around the corner, weekends in New York have become more and more interesting. It is time to wake up from winter hibernation and socialize.

D and I have had a few interesting weekends already, like for example...

We attended a very "adult" dinner party on a Friday night. Picture this scene: 6 people, age range late 20's to 60's, 3 courses and lots of wine. The conversations spanned from art, to social media to travels. It was very mature, that I didn't even get a chance to take photos at that time.

The next day, we attended another (less mature) friend's birthday party at a Lower East Side joint. She is a comic, so her circle of friends are all stand up comedians. As expected, there was copious amounts of food and alcohol, and cheesy bar mitzvah-type of entertainment. The vodka started flowing at 6:30pm, so by 10:30pm, everyone was wasted. Needless to say, we had no idea how we got home in one piece. It was one helluva party.

The following day, Sunday, was spent recuperating from the craziness of the previous night. Think wholesome brunch like eggs and such. And lots of coffee.

After that, it was another five days of intense working, Powerpointing, presenting and back-to-back meetings. Another countdown to the next weekend. At least it never gets boring.
