This was a really good weekend, all said and done!

Friday night we went to Flux. I painted my face blue with stars and a moonn and went as Night, and I saw some pretty cool costumes. My favorite was the girl who went as a Venus Flytrap: not only was she incredibly hot, but she hada great great costume ... almost made me wish I went as a fly for Halloween.

Saturday I volunteered with Madge and Jolene at the Animal Friends Black Tie and Tails fundraiser. Kinda cool to see a bunch folks all gussied up, and then a bunch of cats and dogs all gussied up, too. I met Jim Leland, former Pittsburgh Pirates manager there, too.

And yesterday, with it's unseasonably warm temps made for a great day. I played softball in the early afternoon, and then afterwards went out on the Monongahela river with my friend MJ in her inflatable kayak. Apparently we were being watched by a bunch of other boaters, because a lot of people came up to us when we docked and got out of the water. Some guy told us we could get fined $300 each for not having life jackets ... and another guy tho;ught we were cops because we went out in that crazy boat without life jackets. He said he gets fined all of the time for stupid stuff, and he was amazed we didn't get one... I guess all the cops were at the Steelers game. After boating, I went over to my folks place, and was apparently pretty tired. I fell asleep on the couch and didn't budge for about an hour before eating dinner.
