Weekend recap

So I had a very entertaining weekend. Friday started with Geo, Jaen and Carlos I in Jose Enrique with the best grapefruit vodkas the Placita could offer. To my surprise (it has happened twice) I bumped into my sister Tania with the best brother in law in the world Georgie, my fitness guru Patty and the always hilarious Stephanie with people from their workplace. Later we moved into Piropo where my friend Cagiu pitched Georgie an arranged marriage between his son and Mia ( under serious consideration;kid is gorgeous). Then I kicked into responsible big sister gear and went to San Sebastian to pick up Rebeca and Christian. I have to say, her pickup went smooth ( thank God!).

I spend Saturday in bed cuddling with Carmela ( rain helped) and made plans Joel for a night out. After a nice tapas dinner with Joel ( thanks again, babe), Anushka and friends, we headed to Pa'l Cielo for some nice 80's vintage pop music. Hanging with Joel always involves laughter, jokes and some nice people watching comments. Anushka is always sweet and fun, but we need to compliment her for the most original lighter in history, an Agatha Ruiz de la Prada fish.

Sunday was a great day to open the beach office with Geo and we headed there for some "hard work", a ceviche lunch followed ( sorry J!). We made plans to go see Doubt in Fine Arts Cafe. By coincidence, we met Joel,Anushka,Edwin and Carlos Osvaldo. There was no seat left except first row, that we dubbed "first class" in order for us to believe that even at the movies, we are still VIP (didn't work). Movie was great and intense. As always Meryl Streep always delivers, she being the first lady of acting ( in my humble opinion, Cate Blanchett comes in close second).

So this week, posses hard work at the office and workouts ( my knee will behave, my knee will behave,my knee will behave). Very excited for Obama's presidential pledge and the ceased fire truce in Gaza.

So now I'll leave you with some words from Ashton Kutcher's blog on The Huffington Post about the Presidential Pledge: "We have gathered a group of individuals who share the courage to pledge to our president, and the world at large, what it is that they are willing to do, give, or sacrifice, in an effort to help their fellow man. Our hope is that this effort will inspire others to do the same, with individuals posting their initiatives within their communities. This is not a selfless utopian action. In fact it is a very selfish one. By improving the lives of those who surround us we will in effect improve our own.
