Work and Play

Exhausting. This weekend was completely exhausting but good.

This was a huge weekend at work so it meant long hours and being called in unexpectedly but I still fit in time with friends that came into town. Every week my friends and I try to go to lunch somewhere around the city. We stopped into Eggct. where I had a really good Eggs Benedict Florentine. They do great work over there although we turned into a sports bar when they turned on one of the NCAA games as we were eating. It got pretty loud when Western Kentucky hit that amazing game winner. The place wasn’t really ready for the reactions of a dozen or so sports fans.

Evan and Joanie really wanted to check out the Kansas City Power and Light District so we went to Raglan Road. Lots of fun. Pints and Irish Car Bombs all over the place. This is the first time I really felt the KCP+L District looked like a district rather than a set of different bars that happened to be in the same geographic location. There were a lot of people out and about enjoying the KC Live area. I was pretty surprised at how big Raglan was. It was nice to be at a place that had a lot of people but wasn’t “sorry my elbow is in your spine right now” crowded. It was nice to see Dirk and Evan from NYC to spend some time with us. There are so many exciting things happening in the lives of all of us.

Easter Sunday was profitable. Very profitable. Danny gave me a call after a long day and we went to Brio to sit on the balcony area and have a drink. I think we are both going to hit this up a lot during the summer, it is a really relaxing place to hang out and they have great Food+Beverage selections. There was a guy playing music upstairs, had a really strong voice and did some covers.

Back to the grind. There is a lot of website work to be done and I have to confirm a possible event gig for Saturday. I am going to readjust my sidebar on this site to represent some of the new things I have been reading. There are a lot of good Kansas City sites I have been getting into as well as a lot of funny personal sites mostly originating from the writers at College Humor. Below is a random photo from the archives that has no connection to anything written in this post. Enjoy.
