Nice

- Eating at four different restaurants, each with the lip-smacking end result of "I am so stuffed I can't eat a bite more"

- Five and a half hours of non-stop walking around with window-shopping. And stopping to browse at "just one more shop" before heading restaurant-wards though legs were in killing mode.

- Meeting a big group consisting of about fourteen unknown people and giggling silly over it. Insiduously trying to get more info about one of those members and winding up with, "Gosh, I think we blew it."

- Jumping up at 2.00a in the morning with, "Oh shoot, its actually 3.00a now because of Daylight Savings - we better get to bed" to make it to brunch at one of the four places mentioned in point number one.

- Non-stop chatter about everything from books and five ways to distinguish fresh-off-the-boat-desis to why change is nice.

- Not at all noticing the passage of almost forty eight hours.

I did not do anything "special" this weekend. Yet, it has been the most relaxing and wonderful weekend I have had in a while now.

Adieu weekend. I am so charged for the week ahead that even the unceremonious loss of an hour has barely made a dent in my enthusiasm.

Did I mention? Having friends you love spending time with while being yourself must be the biggest blessing. Ever.

Good that you had such fun! Doing nothing is bliss always, specially with friends around. I at least do the "do nothing" part every weekend :-D.
