This weekend Larry came down for my last full weekend in VA. Friday night we kept it easy, went to Harry’s Tap Room and got some food and a bottle of wine outside. Our Saturday was a busy one – we had our gigantic new bed delivered in the morning, sold off my old bed to two guys who literally carried it home in the afternoon, then did a little shopping for some last minute apartment items (including a new dining room table). At night met Page and Meliss out for dinner at Mie N Yu in Georgetown.
No stinking cheese this time, although we did see a coked out looking belly dancer and a guy at the table next to us asked us if we thought his wife looked like a lesbian. After a good dinner (and about 4 hours) we went down to the Georgetown waterfront and met up with Vinny, J, and Britney for some drinks to say goodbye (for now) to DC.
Sunday we did brunch, Larry forced helped me to re-post my couch and table w/ chairs on Craiglist, and then it was time to send him back to NY.

This weekend Larry and I officially moved (some of) our stuff into the new apartment. I drove up from VA on Friday with everything I could fit in my car (mostly to keep at my parents for the September garage sale), and then Saturday morning made my way into the city. After getting lost twice and passing 4 Gary V billboards, I arrived at 229 Chrystie St. As Larry’s Dad painted away, and C & B and West Elm delivered stuff, Larry and I put together our patio furniture, TV stand, and coffee table and made a couple of trips to Larry’s old apartment to pick up the rest of his stuff (which included getting the best parking spot ever after one trip back.
That night we went over to Reed & Jess’s new place for their housewarming party (where we stole a few ideas for our place as well 
). Sunday morning we put together a few more things, and then it was back to VA for me.

This weekend it was off to Long Island for Jess and Mike’s Wedding. Friday night I flew into JFK and Larry and I trained it out to Glen Cove, where we quickly got ready for the rehearsal dinner, which was a BBQ poolside, followed by a massive dessert spread and lots of great speeches, and then followed by the after party at the bar upstairs. After getting schooled in foosball too many times, Larry and I called it a night.
Saturday we spent most of the day at the pool, and most of that watching the longest water-treading contest ever.
That night we were bused over to a very nice country club for the wedding and reception, with probably the most comprehensive cocktail hour buffet I’ll ever see (there was even a mac and cheese station!).
Wedding was lots of fun – maybe even too much fun, because I couldn’t even make it to the after party
More pics from the wedding are here.
