wkend recap

what a weekend! Fri nite i went over to my honey's. when i first got there, he wasn't around. he usually always greets me at the back door. then i heard his voice. i thought it was coming from the backyard, but he wasn't there. then i looked up. and there he was, up on the roof! he was trying to get a good shot of the full moon! whatta guy! he always keeps me guessing, he's always doing zany things for the sake of art, he's spontaneous and unpredictable, it's exciting! Sat my sister Devereaux came over. i showed her how to set up her blog. i had shown Masoud the nite before. this is such fun! after we got my sister's blog up and going, Masoud invited a friend of his(Alli) over. Alli brought a couple of movies. Masoud has set up this cool "entertainment center" and it's like being in a mini theatre. then Masoud wined and dined us(delicious spicy meatballs, steamed rice, homemade guacamole, veggie medley of zuchinni, bok choy & okra -- finished up with fruit salad (watermelon, canteloupe, papaya & green grapes) for dessert. afterward Alli took us all to see Micheal Moore's new film Sicko. Alli dropped us off and Dev ended up staying the nite. the next morning(Sun), we three went for some breakfast pho. it was Dev's 1st time to try it, we broke her in right! then we went next door to the half-price bookstore. we all found something! Dev got a really good book on colors, chakras & crystals and a yoga DVD. i got 2 more copies of Simple Abundance, 1 for Myra and 1 for my new friend Heidi. Masoud found some Rumi poetry books. i also got a yoga DVD and Masoud found some Suze Orman books(on finance) which he knew i was interested in. Dev was so sweet, she got them ALL for us!!! then Dev had a birthday party to attend. when she returned, Alli came back over with the movie Blood Diamond and one of Jackie Chan's. oh and Fri nite Masoud and i had watched Love Song for Bobby Long(filmed in New Orleans) that Elaine lent me. then Sun nite after Dev and Alli left, Masoud(mr. wonderful!) drove me all the way over to pay my rent. he lives near Bear Creek Park and my landlord is in the Heights. whatta guy!!!
so, if ya'll get a chance, check out Masoud's blog: fineartimagegallery.blogspot.com and my sister's blog: usa-speaks.blogspot.com. the reason my sister wanted to set up a blog is because she is getting ready to embark on a National Tour. she's going to all the states except 5 (Alaska, Hawaii, Missouri, N. Dakota & Wyoming). she's filming a documentary! how cool is that??!!

Thank you for helping me get my blog up and going. It was fun and I am excited about the possibilities. You are a great teacher and made it seem easy.

I enjoyed the food, movies, laughter, and the time we shared, it was precious. Thanks again to the both of you for everything. Love, Devereaux
