Obviously I am PSYCHED!!! But there's a lot to do in the meantime...make four lasagnas, roll up some softball size meatballs, tend to my simmering sauce...and get ready to get my beer on.
Some highlights from the first few days of Junebug's visit:
DAY ONE
- went to Kmart to shop
- bag arrived, Kmart shop wasn't even necessary
- hit the beach on her first day, and sat in a small rainstorm while the sun played peek-a-boo
- left the beach
- helped me start sauce #1 while the Man made margaritas and started dinner
- met one of our guy friends that we invited for said dinner
- hit the hot tub, played Guitar Hero, and smooched our guy friend (as we suspected would happen)
DAY TWO
- woke up early nursing a hangover
- got in the car and we drove to the car ferry
- arrived in St. John
- had awesome breakfast at JJ's
- hit the beach and growled at the still-crappy weather
- put long sleeves on while keeping determined that sun would come out and rain would stop
- had first rum drink of day, while still glaring at the sky
- determination paid off! sky cleared, sun came out, we bobbed on noodles in the waves while drinking from our sippy cups
- had good food at Skinny Legs
- guy friend from previous night took ferry over and met us at Skinny Legs
- had more drinks
- drove to car ferry and went back to St. Thomas
- had dinner and yet more drinks
- drove guy friend home and came back to house to sleep
DAY THREE
- another early morning, another hangover
- met friends down at dock for big catamaran trip to Jost Van Dyke
- started drinking on boat, Junebug and guy friend at this point are all sorts of attracted to each other
- hit Jost, have lunch, hit beach, soak in sun and booze
- more sun
- more booze
- more canoodling
- dinner
- back on boat
- sleepytime for long ride back (we sailed, no motor)
- got back to house at midnight
- guy friend stayed over
DAY FOUR
- Superbowl Sunday!
- another hangover
- guy friend and Junebug are out buying rum for party and more ricotta for lasagna
- guy friend is taking her to Kmart to return the crap she no longer needs
...and now we're all caught up. There are many pictures from these days that I will bore you with once we slow down. It's safe to say we do it up when friend's come to visit. We're all weary with exhaustion. One more BIG night of drinking and then mama needs some rest.
I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR FOOTBALL TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO PATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad the trip has been great...and including a vacay romance. how nice. I won't mention the game since I'm guessing your head hurts and you're not in the mood to talk about it :)
Hi NJaney - hope you aren't in too much of a slump...it was a weird game. Very low score.
Just think...baseball is right around the corner.
Cheers,
BH
