A Wonderful Weekend!

This weekend was one of the best weekends I have ever had here, in Raleigh. (I can't say it was the best because it's tied with the weekend that Darren and Calvin visited, and you can't pick favorites when it comes to family). It was just me and Kim this weekend and I had a blast! Kim got here around ten pm on Friday, and her arrival coincided with my pizza delivery, so we both got to unwind with some pepperoni and some cherry coke. We talked (gossiped) until after four am, and surprisingly, we got up around eleven am, for some pilfered strawberries (the dining hall will never miss them) and chocolate, and then another slice of pizza. We took a tour of the campus here, and got to see some things that even I had never seen. After that, we took a breather back in my room, and then we headed off to the Crabtree Valley mall and had a tasty lunch at the Cheesecake factory. Kim ordered the herb crusted fillet of salmon and I ordered the spicy chicken chipotle pasta, and then for dessert, Kim got the tiramisu cheesecake and I got the truffle tower (cheese-free) cake. Then we did a couple circuits of the mall, bought a few really cool things, and then stopped by Starbucks on our way out. When we made it back to the room, we popped in a movie and relaxed. After a while, it was time for some leftovers for dinner, and then another movie (Love Actually, of course). After finishing the deleted scenes, we both fell asleep, only to awake around eleven again. After some pizza (again) and some cherry coke (again), we watched I Love Lucy, and then sadly, Kim had to go. All in all, it was a great weekend, one of the top two I've had here at state, and now it's time for me to work on a project due on Wednesday.

Sounds like you two had a lot of fun!!! Me and Darren did as well, except it involved a lot of moving things. I think Kim will be proud though :D We moved this really huge white (solid wood) cabinet that seemed heavier than a piano!!! Oh, and we chatted about computers the whoooooolllleee time!!
