Well, I'm just now recovering from a weekend that was FULL of unexpected surprises. My brother and some of his friends came to visit from Dallas and were so excited about going out on 6th Street, floating the river, etc. They showed up later than expected on Friday night and had had some traveling difficulties and issues but made it. They didn't get to go out until really late due to their late arrival so came back to my place pretty disappointed in that. I warned them to call and check to see if the rivers were open, and they said that they had done so a couple of days before. So, they get up and head out to float the river on Saturday. I later heard on the news about the guy who had died the night before so tried to call my brother but got no answer. They were gone ALL DAY, and I ended up canceling all of my plans since I was so worried about them, couldn't reach them, etc. They finally called and were pissed off as they had a HORRIBLE experience...all were pretty banged up....and one of the girls even broke her ankle. So, that was a fun night. They took off earlier today and were disappointed in their experiences here. I felt bad, but it was a really wild weekend for all of us as I wasn't able to work, do what I had previously planned to do, etc. either so I, too, am just now getting back on track.
Regardless, I'll check on him later to make sure he made it back to Dallas okay and will probably have to "lure him back" for a visit to Austin with the promise of a new tattoo or something that will pique his interest. Poor things....at least they had an "eventful" weekend! ;)
I hope that all of you had a better weekend! ;)
Kisses,
Sarah
