Weekend Update – the good points

Well, that was fun!

Quite the busy weekend, indeed. I took Friday off in an effort to celebrate an early Valentine’s Day with the woman I love, and I’d like to say that it ended up being a success, in my humble opinion! The afternoon was spent over at Disney World – a la the Magic Kingdom – and if anything, it was certainly magical…and a bit goofy, I might add (no pun intended). Had dinner at O’Hana inside the Polynesian Resort, which served up some of the best buffet foods that I’ve ever eaten – strongly recommended to anyone looking to stuff themselves silly! For those out of the loop, it’s a Hawaiian-themed restaurant where they bring everything straight to your table, so when you’re ready for more shrimp, they simply unload another skewer of shrimp onto your waiting plate – genius, I tell ya. Also, the chicken wings were to die for and needless to say, we will be going back…

Oh yeah, and Mickey’s PhilharMagic was definitely cool, too. Saw it for the first time, loved it, and got a special kick out of hearing not only all of the kids, but also the girl next to me singing along with all of her favorite Disney songs… 😉

Saturday was eventful two-fold because it proved to be full of family from both sides of the spectrum. Leslie took me home to meet the parents in the AM and I’m told that things went rather well, which is mighty cool on my part! The entire family seems very down to earth and possesses one unique quality alone that made me feel very much so at home – they all rag on each other constantly – and I don’t think that I’ve laughed as much in the past week as I did during those few hours. Looking back at the grand history of all relationships, it could’ve gone horribly wrong, but thankfully it didn’t.

And last but not least, I received a phone call Saturday evening and discovered that my Dad is in town, so I’ve spent an excess of probably ten hours in the past day or so catching up with him. I’m not quite sure how long he’ll be here, and neither is he – I guess, but it’s certainly good to see him and I hope to spend as much time with him as I can while he is. It’s amazing how easily you forget about the important stuff when you’ve been gone for a year and a half…

All in all, probably the best weekend so far this year…can’t wait to see this one topped!

    If that was Saturday, that could have been me! XD
