US Open Labor Day Monday

I am post-dating this entry to 9/6/10 but writing it on 9/9/10.

I went to the US Open with my mom on Labor Day Monday September 6. We watched Monfils down Gasquet, Kinepri defeat Wickmayer and Soderling beat Montagne. All of them have since been eliminated from the US Open. I'm rooting for Nadal vs Federer with Nadal giving him a straight sets spanking! I can dream, can't I?

And around 5:43pm on Sunday Davey texted me a message "Email ya in a bit". It sounded light so it sounded like it would be a good email. And it was. He sent it around 6:30pm (the first time he sent an email in the 6 o'clock hour). It was saying I hope you had "a good weekend even though we didn't get together. Next weekend is a definite possibility."

Davey's coming to NYC Labor Day weekend

So Davey wrote me yesterday and said he thinks the "Labor day plan will work." So I'm going to make plans for the weekend.

How does this sound?

Saturday
3-7pm hang out in Central Park
8-10pm Rayuela reservation in the LES
10-11pm Verlaine for lychee martinis

Sunday
11-1pm in Bridgehampton at Pierre's 2468 Main Street
1-4pm Cupsogue Beach (Westhampton, NY, $10 parking)
6-8pm dinner at the Palm, 94 Main Street in East Hampton

Monday
bid him adieu (farewell)

How's that itinerary? I might trade in the Rayuela reservation to cooking him Spicy Chipotle Lasagna, depending on whether he wants to eat in or not....I would cook for him, the first guy I've ever cooked for. I think I'm in love with him. :)

Silver Lining

So Davey's not able to get out of work to come to NYC this weekend. He said there might be a slim chance and he'll know late Friday afternoon but don't plan on him being here this weekend. The silver lining is that maybe he'll be able to come up the next weekend, which is Labor Day weekend. We'll see. To be continued....

I ate Black Garlic pizza (garlic, mushrooms and prosciutto) from El Greco Trattoria. Very yummy. Having the leftovers.

Back at my parents for Labor Day weekend, although I have to go back to work on Monday morning

I was able to start the taxes for the 5K client. I finished their statement of position. Not too bad for an hour of work. I will work on it all-day tomorrow.

I have a guest pass to the Great Neck gym. I vow tomorrow to be the start of my running program. I am going to train and successfully complete the Miami Marathon in January 2009.
