Yesterday turned out pretty alright.
SexyPants has been taking tennis lessons for the last several months. He’s gotten to know his instructor pretty well and considers this guy a friend now. So the instructor (let’s call him Sam) has a new girlfriend who is interested in learning how to play tennis, and he invited SP and me to take a group lesson with her.
The lessons are at this really beautiful racket club, and Sam is a great instructor. I had a blast! Sam is African with a very thick accent and it’s sometimes hard to understand what he’s saying. But I got the gist very quickly and it was a fantastic workout as well as a good outing…especially since its was kind of a last minute thing.
Sam had invited us out to have cocktails and maybe dinner afterwards, but I felt weird in that we either had to go out in what we wore to the lessons or we were going to have to shower up and do the whole 9 yards getting ready. I was hesitant because, well, what if it wasn’t a great time and what if it was weird? And I HATE going out in workout attire.
Still, it truly would have been OK. After the lesson we all promised to do it again. And I hope that we do!
SexyPants and I have even decided that we’d like to squeeze in a tennis lesson or two while we are in Hawaii. By the way, THANK YOU for the suggestions on what to do while we are there! I am looking into all of them. Getting really excited!
After the lesson, SP and I ended up going out to dinner by ourselves anyway. There’s this amazing fish market on the way back to SP’s house where he gets his super, super fresh seafood, so we stopped in there and ended up just sitting at the bar (the fish market has a connected restaurant that is very casual, so it was perfect) and eating insanely wonderful halibut and red snapper. Uh gah! So great!
Then! Watched a pretty insane movie last night called Headhunters. Many disturbing elements with lots of twists and turns. I liked it a lot, but SP had a little too much wine and he kept falling asleep.
Today has been fun as well…slept late, ate breakfast, ran errands, went to the mall to check out the post-Black Friday crowd, and I ended up getting an iPhone 5 because my 4 was dying a painful death. Then we went and got mani/pedis together. Had wine with our awesome treatments and then I headed back downtown and got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding. Ugh! Luckily the fact that I’d had two glasses of wine with my mani/pedi was never mentioned. Got off with a warning and continued on my way…
Now I’m heading back to SP’s place because I want to finish painting my side tables that I’ve left up there and we’re cooking tonight. I think SP is grilling steaks. I think I’m hungry again!
Ok. Enough BS. Let’s get this show back on the road. Happy Saturday Night, all!!
Love!
