Living Entirely For Pleasure

For the past few days we've had the pleasure of Patrick's company, as he came to spend the long weekend with us. Patrick is about the easiest, most pleasant guest in the world. For example, on Friday night he announced that if he had cable, he would quit his job, and then he decided that the flat-screen, hi-def television in the basement was the best feature of our house. It is nice to sit around on a weekend and watch TV, I decided after joining him for a few episodes of HGTV. Very nice.

I promise that we did more than just watch TV this weekend. Like eating at a Middle Eastern food festival at a Melike Greek Orthodox Church in McLean. And Jason and Patrick went to a Nats game. And today we spent the day at Mount Vernon.
And then we watched some more of the telly. Jason and Patrick like to work the phrase "living entirely for pleasure" into sentences whenever possible, and this weekend offered a few opportunities.

How did you manage to get Patrick to eat Middle Eastern food? I can never get him to try anything.

Don't give him a choice.
