Check...Check...Check....and then some.

Well I had a very nice and much needed relaxing weekend. Ended up napping most of it away. That was one tiring week last week for me. So as to get back to last Friday – I went to my friend’s place and finally finished putting together her entertainment center. Can’t believe I did it all by myself. Then I headed down to the LES and walked towards the Italian restaurant that was our meeting place for a new social group I joined. About 10 of us showed up and everyone seemed very cool and nice. We all seemed to get along together well and had a very good dinner. Boy, it has just been one huge gorgefest for me last week. But anywho, about 6 of us decided to go to a local bar/lounge and hang out after dinner. Had a few drinks and danced the night away with the group. There were 3 guys and 3 gals and the gals were quite friendly and outgoing. Kinda got to know one girl in particular. She is pretty young and cute, early twenties – and had a chance to hang out for a little bit. She seemed interested, but I can’t say that I am ready to get exclusive yet(and she just seems a little too young). As a bonus, come to find out, her roommate is an HR person for JP Morgan/ Chase. Yes!!! So about 1:00 or so, we all kinda were tired from the long day at work, dinner, dancing and headed home on our separate ways. That was a really neat group. Didn’t get home until about 2:30 am and even tried to do my crossword puzzle before falling asleep at around 3:00 am or so. Had to say, haven't had a fun evening like this in a while.

So, going over my NYC checklist here. Trying to meet new people – check. Trying to make new friends – check. Trying to go to cool places – check. And lastly trying to build connections for when the time comes to get back to the real world – check. So all in all – a very successful night for Bob.
