On Saturday we spent the morning lounging about reading. Brian introduced me to the Dark Tower series, by Stephen King, and though I've not read much of his work in the past, I'm enjoying these books. In the afternoon I went to the stable and spent most of the rest of the day with Steen. Then I came home, we had a nice dinner, hung out, read more, went to bed and slept in.
Sunday included a trip downtown to hear Michael Chabon read an excerpt from his book The Yiddish Policeman's Union. Chabon is a very entertaining reader/speaker and the event was both wonderfully amusing and inspiring. After that, we came home and I took a short trip to the stable and Brian took a short spin on his bike. When we both returned, we spent the evening lying around again and grilled some tender steaks for dinner. While grilling we hung out drinking beer and watching the lovely sunset with only light sweatshirts on, enjoying the spring activity in the backyard. It is so nice to be able to do things like go outside without a hat and open windows again.
After dinner we watched a relatively bad movie Brian needed to see for his Spanish class, Open Your Eyes, which kept us up until the astonishingly late hour of 11 o'clock. Then we went to bed and my poor tired body couldn't get up until the ripe, late hour of 7 this morning. A raucous weekend indeed.
