A very satisfying weekend xoxo - Started Friday evening, Happy Hour at Willie's Tavern, a bit of TGIF with a couple of very handsome 20-something guy friends. The end of the bar was taken by 8 young women -- "girls night out" -- doing a little TGIFing of their own. It was fun to chat with them, and watch them, flashing the occasional red thong. It must have been a pact -- "Red Thong Night" -- I saw no other color! xoxo - Saturday I played 18 holes of golf, my 2008 debut, at my Club. Walked and carried, as I like to do, and it felt great to loosen up m stiff wintry joints. Lunch afterwards, then back to the office for some webcam fun. xoxo - Sidebar: My wife has a new name for my office, the "Jerk-off-ice!" She's very witty and clever, dat Baby-Wabbitz! xoxo - Saturday Night we hit Rite-Aid for a few necessities, then a gourmet dinner at Duo-Terre in Bernardsville. I won't go into the details, but it was excellent from soup to tea (a Bengal Tiger tea that was the best I've ever had). xoxo - Sunday morning we made love, and it was very tender and satisfying. We caught the latest on Campaign 2008 then I did the coffee and bagel run. As some of you know, we don't cook, not even coffee. xoxo - Sunday afternoon we had the NJSO in New Brunswick, at the State Theatre. I was a music major and this is my favorite thing that we do as a couple. Sunday it was a so-so Haydn symphony, followed by a world premier (quite rare!) of a new work by Darryl Kubian, a NJSO violinist. Titled "3-2-1" It was basically a 3 movement violin "concerto", played by Erich Wyrich, the orchestra's concertmaster (lead violinist). It was very accessible for 21st century music, and I enjoyed it, as did the audience, with a most enthusiastic standing ovation. xoxo - At intermission we run across Livingston Ave. to the Heydrich Hotel, to use the facilities (without a 20 minute wait for the ladies room) and have a drink at their beautiful bar. The second half was the Brahms 3rd Symphony, in F Major, a very moving and uplifting work. They played it perfectly in my opionion, and it's a symphony I've heard 100 times. The brass was warm and inviting, the strings swirling and dramatic, the woodwinds playful and soothing, the percussion heart-thumping and hair-raising! This cat Brahms, he knew what he was doing! xoxo - After the huge, and quite expensive dinner Saturday night, we were up for something simpler in New Brunswick. There being but one Mexican restaurant in the Somerset Hills, we went to Marita's Cantina for Taco/Enchilada Combo platters and Mexical Chicken soup. It hit the spot, for less than $50. We really like New Brunswick, every year it just gets better and better. xoxo - We arrived home just in time for 60 minutes, which sucked, so I put on my Netflix which has been collecting cobwebs for two weeks: "The Lives of Others". The story of artists living under the scrutiny of the East German State Police pre-glasnost, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Well it is just an incredibly good film, and I'm so happy that it won the Oscar for Best Foreign film in 2006, it was near perfect (like Casablanca) in a way that very few films achieve, every loose end tied, surprises right up to the end, evoking heart-warming tears. xoxo - I hugged and kissed my baby-wabbitz and so ended a very satisfying weekend.  |

Hi Dolly, thank you for stopping by and for the compliment! I'm glad SOMEONE out there is reading my musings, and even enjoying them. Talk about "The Lives of Others" -- I'm laying my OWN out there for all to see! More to follow. xoxo Kryztoph xoxo

How perfectly wonderful. And how delightful to find a blogger who writes about something other than things directly related to D/s or BDSM. I like those things, too, but... may be have LIVES please? Many thanks to you, Sir K
