Well, Friday, Mark was laid off, Brian was going out of town for a family reunion. We decided we needed to get out of town. Mark and I went to the Ranch for the weekend. We got there Friday evening and did the usual hanging out and drinking thing, but this time we didn't overdo it. We were up until about 1am or so before retiring while the rest of the golf cart group stayed out until about 4am.
Saturday we took it easy. Mark spent a lot of time working on his resume while I watched a couple of movies. In the afternoon, we went to the pool and hung out for about an hour. We had a very interesting conversation with a nice lesbian who had an interesting story about her mom. Turns out that her mom called the other day to say that her boyfriend had robbed a bank. And that was just the beginning of the story.
Afterward, we attended the pot luck and then headed back to the trailer for a short afternoon nap. We did the whole movie/resume/internet thing for a bit before heading back down to the pavilion for live music and a fireworks show. We hung out for a bit after the show and decided that we were in less of a mood to drink and more of a mood to watch a movie. Mark had never seen What's Love Got to Do With It, so we watched that before calling it a night.
All in all, it was a very relaxing weekend. Probably the most relaxing weekend I've ever had there. Mark and Brian are joining Mama and Twyla for the week in New Orleans (I'm so jealous). But I know Mark needs the break. It'll do him a lot of good.
