Unexpected Long Weekend

So I did go home on Thursday not too long after I posted here. I just wasn't busy and it wasn't worth my discomfort to stay at work with an upset stomach. Glad I did because it lingered through most of Friday too. Not sure what happened to cause it but it finally subsided late Friday afternoon. I slept most of Thursday late morning and early afternoon. I was hungry but didn't want to eat too much and upset my stomach more so I just had crackers and ginger ale. By Friday evening I was able to get off the couch and head out to Herndon to enjoy dinner with friends. The rest of the weekend was much more enjoyable.

On Saturday afternoon we took a nice long walk in the mild weather to visit the newly opened Long Bridge Park in Crystal City. It is really nice and I'm so happy that the county was able to use this land for something so beneficial. It will eventually have an aquatic center too! Yesterday we used Groupons to visit the International Spy Museum in D.C. I have now been 4 times since it opened and I'll admit I was a little bored. Jake really wanted to go though and I'm happy he enjoyed it. We hit up FroZenYo afterwards, of course.

Tomorrow we are closing on a refinance of our condo. This was a great decision on our part because it's allowing us to save up some additional money towards the down payment on our next house. I love our condo very much be we want to have more space eventually. Our current plan is to move in about 4 years time. Rates are really great right now and I'm incredibly pleased with what we're going to be saving.

We started watching Boardwalk Empire on DVD but two episodes in I can't say that I'm loving it. We might abandon it for something else, I need to check our Netflix queue. Actually I think the first season of Game of Thrones comes out this month. It'll be nice to finally see it after hearing about it for months. We're too cheap to pay for premium movie channels. (I do, however, point out to Jake at every opportunity that we should really get Fox Soccer Channel.)

Today has flown by. I really need to start posting more photos, I just haven't had time to take any! I'll try to work on that. Happy Monday everyone!
