Lovely Weekend

This was my weekend. It was awesome.

Friday dinner:

Pad Thai at Ruam Mit Thai in St. Paul. The atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired, but the food is ridiculously good. So much so that even after having leftovers for 2 more meals this weekend, I'm going back for lunch today.

Friday night record release show for Adam Svec’s new album Weak in the Waves:

Solid album. You should pick it up.

Saturday night:

We rode the bikes to Art-A-Whirl. Always starts out as a good idea, but then you have to get home. I have a hard time with that.

Especially when this is the weather we were dealing with.

Dinner at the new Psycho Suzi's. It was packed. Service was terrible. Getting a table was nearly impossible. But we did and had a lovely evening out with friends.

Sunday night:

Art-A-Whirl Part 2. First stop: Shuga Records for Party of One....

Then the Fuck Knights...

Then a pit stop at the 331 Club for Zoo Animal...

And then back to Shuga Records for Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles who closed out the event with an upbeat, get everybody dancing set...

...so upbeat that a circle was started with everybody holding hands and dancing in a circle. It was so beautifully spontaneous that I got a little choked up.

Also of note:

-No rapture! Not that I really thought anyone was going anywhere.

-During band practice we began work on another new song. So excited. Also, I might have a bass player soon. Double excited.

-Slept til noon on Saturday and Sunday. That needs to stop happening.
