The weekend, so far

It's been a whirlwind couple of days...

Friday: Very strange weather hit Baltimore, with sleet, ice, and snow falling throughout the area starting at around 2pm. All after-school activities were cancelled, and I took advantage of a rare afternoon off during baseball season to engage in a long-missed happy hour at Brewer's Art. Afterwards, it was to Marcia's for her annual St. Patrick's Day party, which I stayed at for a couple of hours before deciding I'd better get home to finish packing. I also came to the realization that I lost my cell phone somewhere since Thursday afternoon.

Saturday: The day of the big moving day. And I cancelled it because of the ice. It was a tough decision, because I had no way to contact my friends except by sending an e-mail, which I was afraid they weren't going to read. So I sent the e-mail at 7am, then waited for several hours for a reply, and, not getting one, I figured they were coming, but they never did, and finally at around noon I gave up, and went to get some coffee at Red Canoe. It turns out it would have been a fine day to move, as the ice melted by mid-morning, but it's probably for the best because now I'm farther along packed. I've rescheduled the moving day to Sunday afternoon. After a day of packing, I headed to work at the restaurant, where I had one table and made $16 while working for four hours. That sucked, but it's not surprising that people who want to eat a nice dinner out don't want to fight the St. Patrick's Night crowds down in Fell's Point.

I'm very excited about moving!

Where are you moving to, anyway? Happy St. Patrick's!
