Great Food, Good Friends, Family, and Home

So apparently I don't have a job at College Delly anymore? Not totally sure yet, as nobody has officially told me I don't have a job, but since the owner's of Paul's Delly purchased it (or so that's the rumor) a lot of the original staff isn't working there anymore.  Honestly, it's not a big deal, I only worked once a week, and  most of the time it was 11 pm-3 am.  I was planning on leaving after this month anyway since it's senior year, and I would like to have my Friday nights available to have fun after I depart for the real world.  Yikes.

This past weekend, I went back to Glen Allen for a nice home-cooked dinner with the parents and Adam.  We went ice skating afterwards at RVA on Ice which is at the new CenterStage theatre/artsy place downtown.  For all you people who know downtown, it shares a block with the old Miller and Rhodes department store building.  The rink is pretty small, and they don't have a Zamboni resurfacing the ice, so it has a lot of shreaded and uneven ice.  It was nice to skate outside (well except for the 5 police cars responding to some drug bust the next block over).  I even had a little girl ask me if I was an ice skater! I must have been good.  Maybe it was the fact that I still have my ice skates from when I was 12 that have been worn about 3 times in my life.  Here's a picture of me looking like I know what I'm doing!

Oh and another of the boyfriend attempting a triple toe loop... (just kidding it was his first time on ice skates)

I think I want to take ice skating lessons now and get some use out of my ice skates!  My mom took us on this very romantic date (yes we're back in high school) down to the rink and watched/took these fabulous pictures.  Then my camera died, so we did not have further documentation of our ice skating abilities or the fact that I'm just too speedy to skate with Adam.  Too bad.  

After ice skating, mom, Adam, and I met up with Alison and Mike (Adam's sister and her fiancé) for a few drinks downtown.  It was nice to see them and hang out again! 

When I go home we always have great food, and for Sunday brunch we ate at Kitchen 64 on the Boulevard near the Diamond.  We shared the Steak Fries, which you must try if you ever go there.  It's pieces of steak cut up, onions, mushrooms, cheese, all over french fries.  This was definitely one of my cheat meals for the week.  We got to spend the afternoon at Alison and Mike's place downtown and after watching some of Adam's home movies and looking at old pictures, went to Kuba Kuba for dinner.  It's not fancy by any means, but the food is really good.  Yay for paella!  So after a weekend of great food, good friends, family, and the comfort of home, I'm back in Williamsburg for another week of class.  Tomorrow is my super busy day AND I have a personal training session at 7:45 am.  I hope I can make it through the day!
