I spent a short weekend in Calgary at my BFF's. She was having a going-away party for her sister who is moving to England to marry her man, since our stupid government won't let him in the country. But that is another story entirely.
I had to work on Saturday, so I didn't get to BFF's until around 8. I wasn't more than 2 minutes in the door and I had a Corona in my hand. I really hadn't anticipated a night of drinking, but the red wine kept appearing in my wine glass as the night progressed. Thankfully I was drinking a ton of water to off-set a possible hangover... that and an Advil before I went to sleep did the trick.
The night was full of catching up, silliness, wrestling, punching and lots of hugs. Here is a good 'Before-After- picture of BFF's husband, cousin and myself. I prefer the "Before.'
This one is my favourite...even though my BFF has her face screwed up.
The night ended fairly late with BFF's sister and me curled up on the couch watching Goonies.
Although I didn't get to sleep in as much as I would have hoped, I was happy to not be hung over, and it was beautiful to wake up with the sun shining in my face, a crisp morning breeze coming through the window and the birds tweeting away. It was the most perfect morning.
I got to have breakfast over at Nellie's with Clark. I hadn't seen him since the beginning of January. It was good to catch up. He almost has me convinced to try out snowboarding next year.
The rest of the afternoon was typical of the way BFF and BFF's sister used to spend Sunday's as kids. Curled up on the couch watching movies and being lazy. BFF had us watch Borat. I wouldn't say I hated it, but I am not sure I would watch it again or recommend it.
This coming week should whiz by. I have a week of cleaning planned in preparation of my upcoming visitors over the next number weekends. My house is filthy, and I figured I should make it look somewhat presentable.
Looking forward to a relaxing evening, and a good nights sleep.

What is a BFF?
Or is that something you can't mention in mixed company?
cenobyte: Best Friend Forever
Just so you know I am counting on MFJ to come home with all kinds of info for me. So you better treat him right or I may just have to find my way out there to give you the hugging of a life time.... 8)
Your huggins depend on a good report Sexy
No worries on that Al. I am sure there will be a good report. You know me, I am always a good host. MFJ will get treated just fine.
But I am afraid that doesn't make you exempt from the huggins and getting your ass out here to get them. :)
I don't get back from California until tomorrow but you can consider the report to be bad on the Edmonton trip. Poor sleeping conditions. Lousy hospitality. Foul...just foul. So now Neuba aka Sexy should have many huggins from Al.
Unless the report was supposed to be favorable for hugs. If that's the case then It was blissful. It was almost like I was royalty. It brought a tear to my eye how well I was received.
Or you could just shut down the Den and head to Edmonton with me Al. ;)
