"well ... we were going to."

That is how this weekend will forever be remembered.

I was going to work until 2ish on Friday. Work was cancelled because of Isabel.

I was going to have rehearsal with the QO guard and stay through half time of their home game. School… and the game… were both cancelled.

Adam was going to meet me at QO and see their performance. See above.

We were then going to go up to The Fe, in College Park, to see one of Adam’s favorite bands, Laughing Colors. It was going to be a surprise, and was really the whole point in him coming down Friday (aside from seeing my guard). The Fe, however, had no power, and so they didn’t have the show.

We were going to go eat at Mrs. Oleary’s Pub and then go bowling, and we did… well… at least that eating part. Bowl America was without power too.
So then we were going to go get some drinkie drink and relax at my house. All of the places we went to were closed. And my house was without power. So we drank leftover Malibu and played Never Have I Ever in the dark. Not that I’m complaining about that part. ;)

Saturday I was going to take Adam out for breakfast and then go to QO for a competition at Westminister. The competition was cancelled. We were also going to shower and dress and be clean for the day… but my house was still without power. Burrrrrr.

Adam was going to go to his cousin’s wedding shower and then meet me up at QO before we left for the competition. See above. So I went to the shower with him.

We were going to get his cousin this TACKY monkey lamp that she registered for at Bed Bath and Beyond, but they didn’t have any. So we got a cute card and a gift certificate.

After the shower, we were going to go home and eat dinner with my mom. But we still didn’t have power to prepare dinner, and my mother wasn’t home anyway. So we went to Pizza Hut.

Then we were going to wait around for David to call (he was up for the UMD WVU game), so we could go party with us. While we waited we were going to go cosmic bowling. But they cancelled cosmic for the night. So I kicked his ass with the lights on. High score of 170. ahem.

David never did call. Maybe he was bitter about the loss. So we decided to just go home and play around with my guitar… make some music. My guitar is strung for left-handed people, however, so that was a no go.

Sunday Adam was going to leave by lunchtime. We slept until 2pm. Then my mother got very pissy with me and so Adam stayed to help me take the food that was in our now-warm refrigerator to the dump.

Then I was going to clean up a bit and try to catch up with everything I needed to do for this week. But we were STILL without power… so we spent 3 hours over at my aunt’s house, showering and doing laundry.

I came home and was going to write up a few things, but was too damn tired and frustrated to write in the dark. So I just went to bed.

And now, here it is, Monday morning… I am still without power and back to work at this lovely office. Wee.
