I wish my weekend was longer
19 08 2007Friday Andy took off from work because he wasnt feeling well and his dog and friend of 8 years died…Rudy. She was a Siberian Husky who died because she had cancer. Andy and his family are a bit sad right now. He wasnt as close to Rudy as he is with his rottweiler, Sonny, but Rudy was still part of the family.
That day we just chilled at my house and ate some fried whiting and french fries, drank beer and watched Bourne Ultimatum. We were planning on riding our bikes that day but it rained hard so we decided to ride on Saturday.
Saturday came and went. We finally rode our bikes. I rode about 10.53 miles. I’m really proud of myself. I just wish they make bike seats more comfortable. Then Andy and I got ready to go to Carmine’s restaurant in the theatre district of NYC. It food was good but not hot enough for us. We like our food piping hot. The portions are huge and they do encourage sharing, but Andy and I wanted to try different entree’s and not share.
Only a fraction of their entrees come with pasta, which I think doesnt make sense. Andy ordered the shrimp scampi and I ordered the chicken parmesan and it didnt come with pasta. So we had to pay for a plate of pasta which cost $10. Who eats shrimp scampi with no pasta? For dessert, I had the Italian cheesecake. It was very good. Anyways, we both had a great time and may plan to go back to Carmine’s with friends and/or family.
Sunday, Andy and I woke up hungry. We wanted to go to the Cracker Barrel again. This time I invited my mom. We both had the Big Momma’s pancake breakfast and my mom had the Big Momma’s french toast breakfast. The food was as usual great and everything came up to $28.61. My mom was suprised at the price. It was really cheap. We are definitely going back again.
Please note: I refuse to post pics of myself at C.B. because I didnt like the way I looked.
Whenever I eat a big meal I get really tired and I have to sleep. After my big breakfast at the Cracker Barrel I quickly drove home and went right to bed. I didnt have the chance to ride my bike because I was soooooooo tired. And it also rained so I dont feel too bad. Other than day my weekend was still short but I got a lot done.
