Recappin’ Time: So, after work on Friday, Dec 7 – John went to dinner with his friend, Julie, and I stayed home working on beaded jewelry. When he came home, we decided to watch “The Ex.” It was fun and funny, cute overall.
In the middle of the movie, we got a call from Joe. He was in Hollywood (at Vine) and was not going to be spending the rest of the weekend with Janis and her sister, so needed some suggestions. John & I picked him up, and we finished watching the movie. We stayed up talking, and then slept in a bit on Saturday.
Saturday, Dec 8 – Joe went for a walk in Glendale, and John & I went to spend the afternoon with Janis. We went to the 101 Cafe, then walked around Hollywood Blvd. It was a very nice afternoon!
After dropping Janis off by her hotel, we went home and relaxed for a bit before heading out. At 6pm, we left for Fred’s Mexican Restaurant in Pasadena. My sister invited us to a Friends & Family Trial-Run. We got 2 drinks each, one appetizer per three people, one dinner each and one dessert for the table to share. Josef, Missy & Noah were already there when John, Joe & I arrived. Lyse was at the bar, but joined us for dinner after we sat down. The food was great, but they had a lot of trouble with my order. There aren’t many vegetarian choices, and the chefs weren’t too happy with my requests to alter their menu. The drinks were great and the company was awesome! Fun times!
After dinner, Joe, Josef, John & I went back to Glendale to chill there for a bit before heading to Emmett, Greg & Matt’s for Greg’s “NYE” Party. We got there sometime before 10pm, and there were lots of people there already. Josh & Jul arrived at the same time as us. The party was really nice… lots of socializing and good people. Sadly, John had too much to drink and ended up sick and stupid in the bathroom most of the night. I spend the end of the night helping him recover, and it wasn’t easy. We left around 2am and Josef got a ride with Josh & Jul later on. I passed out after giving John some food, water and vitamins.
On Sunday, Dec 9 – I woke up at 8:45am to take Joe to the FlyAway to LAX. He bought me breakfast at Porto’s and we arrived at the FlyAway just before 10am. I came home and crawled back into bed. I was hoping to go play in the snow with Dave & Michele, but they got busy running errands; so, I just stayed home and worked on some random things. John spend the day recovering. At night, he & I walked to the Mann’s 10 in Glendale to see Bee Movie. It was a fun movie, great colors and expressions. I liked the story idea, but the movie jumped forward a bit too much at points, making the transitions a bit confusing at first. Overall, I enjoyed it!
