birthday weekend

[abka]

The weekend has been a mix of awesome and not-so-great.

Friday's curling was tons of fun until a new curler had a bad accident toward the end. darthfox and I ended up staying with her at the hospital until 3am. darthfox has posted more details here. Fortunately she is doing better. They moved her to Washington Medical Center and if she's not home by now, she will probably be going home soon, and her memory's returning.

Saturday was lovely. Thanks to everyone who came to the National Gallery and let me chatter on about the art for hours and hours. We spent almost 3 hours covering the 20th c. in the East building then after a quick break did about a half hour in the Dutch and Flemish galleries.

Then sanj, ellen_fremedon, darthfox, and I went out to dinner and shopping fun time. I bought some desperately needed new brown heels for work and a cute gray sweater.

Unfortunately after only 4 hours sleep and waking up with a brutal headcold I was done pretty early in the evening. Today I am taking a couch day, hanging out with D. and babying the cold. Monday D. booked me a massage so I will be happy and relaxed for exams on Tuesday.

I've never had a massage before. Will I be able to enjoy it with the headcold? Should I reschedule? Or might it help? Thoughts?

I don't see why the headcold would interfere with the massage. If it's a hot rock massage, it might even specifically help.

Man, that curling accident sounds horrific (well, not the accident itself so much as the resulting injury)! I hope she continues to recover!

Glad you were able to enjoy parts of your birthday weekend. Although boo head cold. I hope you enjoy your massage.
