a day with clay
got up this morning, went to the gym early. earlier than normal and decided that i don’t like the pre-lunch crowd, but i had to go and get the gym out of the way cause clizzay is in town! yes, clay is back for a week or so from brussels where he now resides and since i was too busy watching top model last night to pick him up from the airport (i’m sorry, but top model is more important to me than fighting rush hour out to dulles airport. national, fine, i will pick a bitch up, but dulles or bwi, no) i made sure that i would spend the day with him.
so kai picks me up around noon thirty and we go to pentagon city, them to shop, me to tag along (although i did buy a cute hoodie from nordstrom on sale for 35 dollars). kai and clay both bought “uncomfortable” shoes but liked how they looked. yeah, must be great to throw money around like that in a recession on uncomfortable shoes. yes, this coming from me who used to say fashion before comfort…but having a career (and paycut change) looming in my future…well, let’s just say i passed up a pair of PRPS jeans (my favorite) that were on sale, but not enough on sale for me to buy them.
we wander around the mall for a bit then decide to get some late lunch and we head to gtown to go to The Guards or something like that for burgers and i had a burger stuffed with bacon and cheddar cheese and i have to ask why no one else has caught on to this technique. instead of just piling the bacon and cheese on top of the burger, they stuff the patty and then grill it with all that cheesey bacon-y goodness inside! why has mcdonald’s not caught on to this? i mean, every pizza place has some sort of stuffed crust bullshit, so why haven’t people embraced the stuffed burger? it was so good. now obviously, you do get a little less burger but i’m okay with that when there there’s cheese and bacon involved.
i miss clay a lot. i’m glad that he took a chance on a job overseas, but let’s be honest, we all want him here. dc just isn’t the same without him. well, at least i get ten days before he heads back.
i’m hungry.
