Drk Zlsks Hse



Spent some quality time with Hank and Maryanne (aka Genevieve) Zaleski.  Definitely a piece of the trip that I looked forward to. Anything that pieces together the puzzle of "who is derek?" is always welcome.

Back into the city we go for round 2.

City Hall



En route to 30 st. Market so I can get an amish pretzel covered hot dog and dump half on the floor. 

5 second rule?

Rittenhouse Square



Roof top. Zoubs.


Sister


Great to see Adrienne.  After a dinner from my kitchen (aka Chipotle) we head out on the town for a while, being condescending towards St. Patricks Day and its related festivities.

Just drink, who needs an excuse. Especially one from a country that 9/10 of those wearing the most green couldn't even pick out on a map.

With that being said, on my way to party. Philadelphia for the weekend with Derek, Siner, and the Zoubs.  Excited to escape NW DC and get into something 'real' for just a little.

So off I go, on the second story of the double decker Megabus. Round trip, 30 bones.... not too shabby.

The kid behind me saw a two story McDonalds as we left the city. With the gaining popularity of double decker buses, he applauded their ingenuity of starting the process towards a second story drive through.

Apparently, the wave of the future.

Sheenious


Flexibility



What a skill to practice. Yes, the pictured bed in Jack's suite and thought of returning to work in the same clothes as the day prior doesn't seem like a win. But waking up the next morning, having room service deliver tooth brush and paste, a hot shower, and a delicious hot breakfast surrounded by 20 hot eastern block girl tourist was 'Sheen'ious to say the least.

Sheenious: brilliance in league wih that of Charlie Sheen

"You going to see de Hwizard?"

No, my cabbie friend, we are going to see multiple Wizards.  Seats in the Exec. Suite which is full of free booze is not not a good thing.  My great friend Jack was in town, so it was a perfect opportunity to show him and Dan a good time.

Afterwards, Jack and I head out to Rocket Bar - its in a basement and smells like stale beer... so it reminds us of our home for the last few years, naturally.

We sling back too many gin and tonics and figured out the world and all its moving parts in one sitting.
