Jen and Steve got engaged!

This was a pretty good weekend. Friday night I went over to Dave's and stayed 'til after midnight. He made salad, lasagna, and apple cobbler. We listened to records and it was a very "old fashion" and mature gathering. Yesterday was a little rougher. I had made plans to see Sylvia, but she told me that she was sleepy and wanted to meet later. Because I already had plans to go to Jen's surprise engagement party last night, I couldn't really see her in the evening. We talked about this previously. I was to bring her the voter's registration form, and she would sign it when we hung out, it was her idea too! Now she was canceling it, I became very upset. This had happened before, many times, and it always frustrated the heck out of me. I would make plans, then she either disappeared or canceled last minute. UGH! Needless to say, our conversation ended awkwardly. I knew she didn't care. Sigh, I tried. 

Jen's surprise engagement party went very well. She was shaken and crying when she saw us. Steve really pulled it off this time. He rocked, and we were all so proud of him. Everyone was so happy for them. It was a such joyous night. This morning I woke up around 9, did some work, then went to the gym. It was a very relaxing day. Dave later called me to confirm dinner plans. Before dinner Jose and Dave came over a little early to help fix my bedroom window. This project turned out to be more demanding than we thought. Dave would have to come back to screw the windows back in more firmly. We went to Mandarin Deli and had a very satisfying meal. The owner actually already knew what we wanted to order and that made the whole experience quite fun. Afterwards we stopped by Marie Calendar to get ourselves a razzleberry pie. It was only $6.99 too, what a steal! We watched the Fox cartoon block and each had a slice of pie. Yummy. It was another good night spent with great friends.
