so what else has been going on lately? over the weekend i went to an old friend's birthday party and saw some people i hadn't seen in over a decade. it was actually a lot of fun and i ended up staying out later than i have in a very long time. i think it was close to 4am by the time i got home. the next morning i paid for it when erik started banging metal roasting pans loudly together as soon as we got up (which was mercifully late).
we went to the carnegie library in oakland on sunday afternoon and then to schenley plaza so erik could ride the merry-go-round there. happily it was free and he rode three times and thoroughly enjoyed it! he rode the rabbit, the tiger, and the elephant. he was so good and held on all throughout the ride, so i got to ride too instead of just standing beside him. i didn't have my camera with me but i got a couple of cute pictures with my cell phone.
my mom's been on vacation for the past week or so, and this weekend peter got a call out of the blue from my dad (i don't think he's EVER called me) asking if we wanted to get together for dinner sometime this week. i later found out that my mom put him up to it, but nonetheless we went out to olive garden this evening and had a really nice dinner together. he told us that quite frankly it's a little lonely with her away, and it was nice getting to visit with him without many other people around, like most times when i see him. we actually got to have some really nice conversations. and erik really loved having dinner with his pop pop who fed him some really yummy chocolate cake!
and the pens won tonight again, making their lead three games to one over the flyers. yay! i'm not really a big sports fan in general, but i do enjoy hockey, especially during the playoffs! i really wish we could've gotten to a game this season ... it was supposed to be my anniversary present to peter (all the way back in november). oh well ... maybe next season.
