Labor Day weekend

This past weekend I hopped on the greyhound and rode to Washington DC to visit an old but new friend for a few days. I was exhausted after working 3 nights straight so driving wasn't an option. Taking the greyhound wasn't bad at all. It was kind of nice just sitting for 4 hours and not having to battle traffic.

Friday evening we ate at a cute little vintage pizza bistro in China Town called matchbox. I absolutely loved the space and design. They even have an outdoor deck that would be perfect for a breezy summer night. We had the 3.6.9 mini burgers as an appetizer and the chicken pesto pizza for dinner. It was ok considering my friend promised me it would the best thing ever. He actually said that about pretty much everything he wanted me to try this weekend...lol. We hung out at home for the rest of the night (on the most comfortable couch ever) watching Season 3 of Dexter. He's trying to get me caught up since Season 5 starts in a few weeks.

Saturday night we went to see "Mr. Steal Your Girl", my baby daddy, Trey Songz, perform at Constitution Hall. Monica opened the show and I was quite impressed... the girl can blow!! I also enjoyed her background singers and dancers who kept the crowd going as she changed outfits. I forgot what a fan of hers I am as I rocked with her from 'Just One of Dem Days' to 'So Gone' to 'Love All Over Me'. Trey did his thing (OF COURSE!!). I can't wait for his new CD, Passion, Pain and Pleasure to come out next week. He did a number of new tracks at the concert and I'm already in love. I was so jealous of the girl he brought on stage for the massage *sigh* maybe next time...lol. We ended the night at Lux Lounge for a little dancing and a few drinks.

Sunday we headed to MD to my Uncle Willy's house for a BBQ. Nothing beats family, BBQ hot dogs and Beres Hammond playing in the background. Later on that night I finally got to see Takers and I loved it. Just think Set it Off, Ocean's 11 and the Italian Job all rolled into one. Let's not forget the cast of some of the finest men ever...lol.

Unfortunately Monday rolled around and after brunch at an Ihop in VA, it was time to head back home to NY. I had a really good weekend and can't wait to see ummm... DC again in a couple of weeks...lol
