Today for Lunch
Today for lunch, my friend Angie came up to where I work so that we could spend the hour together. Most days I take a nap during lunch and it has become a time that I look forward to from the moment I wake up. But today I knew that there was to be no nap. I had to shove the sleep back into my body and have some fun with Angina.
Once Angie arrived, we went to the local market and got grilled cheese sandwiches. The weather in NYC today is a tad chilly, but otherwise gorgeous. I got a diet coke with my sandwich and Angie got a bottled water and a bag of chips (which were eaten before we even left the store). We smoked a cigarette and walked a block to local Riverside Park. We found a comfortable grassy spot on the lawn overlooking the Hudson River. Luckily there was few to no people at the park today.
Once situated, Angie sparked up her joint and we relaxed and smoked it down. My stomach has been bothering me all day; I think mostly because of my anxiety and excitement about this weekend. The J eased up the nausea and we lit up another cigarette to cap off the high.
Once baked, we talked about our lives and our friends and our relationships. We discussed the wedding in full detail as she and Kelly will be joining Paul and me on the trip. We just talked and talked with the sun beating down on our faces and the wind blowing a crisp breeze through our hair.
Angie immediately housed her grilled cheese sandwich and I nursed my diet coke. I noticed a cop car driving through the park, but at this point we were just about finished smoking. As the cops drove directly in front of us (their necks craning to get a good look at the druggies), Angie stubs the rest of the joint out and opens her bag of pot and puts it inside. I was a bit stunned that she did this in front of the passing patrol car, but with her confidence and my ability to talk through the experience, we gave the cops no reason to bust our asses.
About 45 minutes into my lunch hour, the two of us smoked one more cigarette together and discussed her birthday. We all had such an amazing time, regardless of the fact that some lesbians don’t know how to handle their booze. I wish every weekend could be as spontaneous and fun as this last one was.
We then cleaned up our area and walked out of the park. A block later and I was kissing her on the cheek, saying goodbye. Another successful lunch with Ange.
Having lunch with Angie today was so much better than taking a nap. I feel a bit refreshed and my stomach certainly feels calmer. I might even house that grilled cheese now.
It’s been a beautiful day so far. I can only hope it continues throughout the week.
