Hello all,My sincere apologies at my delayed posting ... blah blah blah. I know, I can stuff my sorries in a sack. But this weekend was pretty low-key: no car, no money, no prospects, no Carlyle, no Redskins win. Chris cites a "mayjah" win by Virginia Tech against Florida State, a trip to Eamonn's and my smiling face as his weekend standouts.
The CW staff vehicle crapped out on management Friday morning, just in time to disrupt any developing weekend plans Chris may have had, which let's be honest, didn't really consist of more than televised sports interspersed with periods of dining out or minor home repairs. Things picked up a bit on Saturday, however, when we caught wind of a potential ride to one of our most favorite places on Earth, Eamonn's! Friend-of-Kelly Lauren "LED" D. suggested a trip to Eamonn's after I had described to her the delicious fare that keeps us from checking out The Majestic, which has been on our To Try list for months now. Lauren even made arrangements for her friend Gary to come pick our sorry asses up after the Virginia Tech game.
Dinner consisted of the usual fried cod and Guiness, and by usual we mean consistently delicious. Lauren had the grouper, with Chris and I finishing what she couldn't. Gary had Eamonn's own fried burger and fried sausage, washed down with a couple Eurotrash sodas. Without a doubt, Gary went home that night a changed man. He was even overheard telling another Eamonn's patron:
"I've only read about Chris's enthusiasm for this place. But experiencing it firsthand? It's freaking AWESOME. HE's freaking awesome, and this fish is good too. Are you gonna finish your Rock Shandy?"
Pics to follow from the evening, as is a play-by-play action shot of Chris consuming the aforementioned cod! Stay tuned...
