this Momma feels old

I had one of my very best friends here this weekend! she flew down from Minnesota and spent the weekend with me. (everytime I say Minnesota I have to mentally say it like Minneeeesoooota) we had a Momma Spa Day on Saturday and omg, it was wonderful! we each had a massage that was followed by this wrap me up in hot towels and then close up a cocoon of foil around me and let me sleep for 20 minutes thing. (which, by the way, I could have stayed there all cocooned for at least an hour. they also put a warm compress on my face. I could have lived there for the weekend easily. nice spa music, nobody asking me for anything, people rubbing me...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
then, we went to Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival. which, really should be renamed as "come to Epcot and get as drunk as you possibly can" fest. we saw some extremely drunk people walking around in the 90 degree heat, going from country to country to sample the local alcohol. much more drinking than eating was going on.
had a yummy lunch at Japan...my hubby does not eat sushi, so it was a treat to eat some and not have someone sitting across form me with a completely disgusted, pre-vomit face on.
it was so much fun to have a weekend with my friend. but man, I am exhausted. I am so not used to staying out all day and late at night. I actually had 2 meals without someone asking to eat my food and I did not have to cut up anyone else's food, either.
but, back to the topic..... I need to sleep for about 24 hours to recover from my fun. I remember when I was in my 20's and I could stay up until 3AM, get up for work at 6 and not even yawn. no more. I need a coffee IV and some double shots of expresso to get my vertical.
however tired I am, I am still ready for another girl weekend! come on back whenever you're ready, S!
