In other news, J drove 6.5 hours from Atlanta to hang out with yours truly --I still gots it ;). Last time we had serious hang time, we went hiking in N. Georgia so I figured another hike would be a good way to start our first day. We rode out to Lake Wheeler, Warsteiners and chicken wings --yes, chicken wings-- in tow. As soon as we got out of the car I realized the hike wasnt gonna happen. NC summer = hot + humid. We walked for five, plopped down beside the lake and destroyed lunch instead.
We hung out for a bit, come back, cleaned up and left for fayetteville street --the only part of NC that meets J's seal of approval. As J and I are both sushi freaks, I chose Sono. There was a lot of this ...
and a bit of this

Now that I think about it, it wouldve been perfect had the waiter not spent the night trying to pick up my dinner companion. He kept insisting J let him know if he could 'be of service', made zero eye-contact with me and offered J a free drink, despite the fact that J was the DD. Take note, I'd ordered a $10 cocktail. Did the waiter offer to comp it? No, Sir! Then he had the gall to look disappointed when J left the table and reluctantly took the dessert order from me.
How did this dude know I wasnt his girlfriend?
THE GALL!!!
It did comfort me to know ol dude was totally barking up the wrong tree. He deserve to get worked, acting funny.
Day 2 was the Museum of Art --a surprisingly nice museum-- and general chill time. The museum was better than I expected, architecturally breathtaking, relaxing and a welcome reprieve. We even pulled out our screwdriver Doctor Who style and examined the collection...the nerdom never stops.
There was also a good deal of ....
and the requisite amount of shouting, jumping up and down and trash-talking that inevitably comes with it. Oh, oh, yes, yes and J was also introduced to the bounty and wonder of Bojangles. All-in-all the last two days were a serious win. Same time next month?
