weekend end

three days
 of 
sun
 is a good thing 
even
 if 
one of the three
 started 
with torrential downpour(s) 

friday
my friend melissa
 made reservations for us to have lunch
 at the standard
 on the roof 

we did this a year ago on a sunday
 it was lovely

 turns out
 sunday
 is
 the only day 
the rooftop restaurant
 is 
open before 2:30 

her reservation
 was actually for the restaurant on street level 

we discussed alternatives

 i suggested 
the whitney's 8th floor terrace restaurant 


we decided if we couldn't get in 
we could always back track 
to the standard

we got in
we had a long leisurely lunch 


lots of catch up 
we'd not spent time together in months
after lunch we walked down through the museum
even the interior staircase is arty


its such a glorious building the art is curated in a fascinating way

as we stood atop the museum
looking
out
down




 we could hear music
so we set off to see what it was



 they were terrific
i shot a short video



saturday 
started off 
with a horrific down pour
after 
the air was sticky humid horrible
ugh
did some errands
came home 
put on the air conditioner 
in the living room
what a relief
spent the rest of saturday reading

sunday
another super hot day
seemed less humid
i got my weekly mani/pedi
considered 
a walk
nixed it
 in favor 
of heading home to veg out

i no longer feel 
the pull of the sun 
the need to tan 
to be out in the heat 
these are no longer things i enjoy

how was your weekend?
