If this rain does not go away... I am going to be one upset young lady. Sheesh. It has been cold and rainy for far to long now. I heard this weekend is supposed to be sunny, hot, and humid. I will believe that when I see it.

Last night I met my friend Ali & my sister at the Melting Pot for a goodbye dinner. We got the hook up from the wait staff and got a glass of wine, cheese, and chocolate fondue for $30! wow! The cheese alone was supposed to be $18! wow. that is amazing! Ali is leaving within the week to move to Providence to be with her fiance and start her new job. I will miss her dearly but am happy that after three years, she will be with her man.

After dinner, I hopped on the metro home and finished "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao." SO GOOD! Please read! I give it 2 big thumbs up and was a pretty fast read because there were times I didn't want to put it down. As I have mentioned in a previous post, there are some sentences and statements made in Spanish and since I do not speak Spanish, I did not know what it said so I just skimmed over those parts. I didn't feel like I missed much not knowing the language.

I am now starting the book club book, "Midnight's Children" by Salman Rushdie. I am not so excited about this book. Jordan and I just picked it up on Monday from the book store and were told at our book club meeting that it is a sort book of no more than 300 pages, but in fact it is a big book of almost 600 pages and the font is VERY SMALL! Hmm...i am a little worried that I will have a hard time finishing it before our July 7th meeting--I will make it work! Goodbye Social Life! :)

Kevin leaves for Myrtle Beach today with his friends for Brian's Bachelor Party. I am really sad that he is leaving because we are on a really good note right now and I want his company! Casey and chad are leaving for Indiana tomorrow for one of their friend's weddings and will be there until Sunday afternoon. Casey is so funny because it is her first "real" wedding. She is a nervous wreck on what to wear and how to act because the only weddings she knows are the ones that happen in Tell City and those are never a reflection
of what a wedding is like in a big city.

I really do not have much planned but to catch up on sleep, go to wineries in Virgnia for Jamie's Bachelorette Party, pick Casey & Chad up from the airport on Sunday and go see a movie.

Speaking of a movie, I wanted to send a quick reminder:

MY SISTER'S KEEPER comes out in the movie theater this Friday, June 26th!!! Hooray. I am going to try and recruit Casey and my friend Amanda to go see it with me on Sunday evening. It is going to be sooo sad. The book was the saddest book I have ever read and I teared up just watching the preview. I am going to need lots of Kleenex's.
