Weekend Recap!

Hiya peeps! How was the weekend? I was pretty thrilled to have the day off today... Got a few things done... got a little relaxing in. I may have driven to the gym, decided I didn't feel like it and turned around, but whatever... Don't judge me...It was my day off. :) And I don't have much of a voice, so I felt like working out might not be smart. I feel totally fine, but my voice is wacky. Blah. Weird! 

Anyhoo, the long weekend was pretty good if I do say so myself! Friday evening kicked off the weekend with a happy hour with some of my favorite peeps from the Un!ted Way (from when I worked as a loaned executive back on the 2009 campaign). :) Below is the whole group- some other loaned execs from my class and some of the staff :) 

After that, it was time to celebrate Sara's birthday (middle in patterned dress) :). Her actual birthday is new years eve, but she was out of town...so we all just opted to meet up a couple weeks after the event and extend the celebrations! 

Sooooo every time the camera flashed, I realized my ahem... brazier... was visible through my shirt with the bright flash...haha.. Goodness. So, this awkward hiding-behind-Eric pose is in response to that. Random.

I felt totally old b/c I was soooooooo ready to call it a night by like 10pm....and was annoyed at the crowdedness of the bar and all the random people... <--Yup, even re-reading that makes me go "I'm old."

Saturday was full of errands, but good. And Saturday night, Eric's mom, sister and me headed to see Burn the Floor. It was freaking a.mazing! My fav couple ended up being from SYTYCD...well at least the girl was. But, it was the one season I didn't watch, Season 5. I'm talking about Janette if you watch SYTYCD. :) Kinda cool!

Anyhoo, those dancers in the show have so.much.energy. I mean, it was nonstop for 2 hours, with a decently small cast. They each danced more in two hours than I think I've moved in like a year. haha.. Definitely held our attention. Highly recommend seeing it if you get the chance....and I also highly recommend sitting in row 2 b/c um... that's where we sat and we kept saying we were in "the sweat zone" haha :) It was pretty cool. :) Obviously we didn't get sweat on us. That's be gross. Duh.

Sunday, I actually went in to work for a couple hours... It was my first time to go in on the weekend since I started there in May, so it's definitely not a frequent thing or really that bigofa deal. And I didn't really HAVE to, but I had some random busy work that I just wanted to get out of the way. Have to say...well worth the couple hours I spent there b/c I'm much more relaxed heading into tomorrow than I woulda been...just b/c tomorrow is meeting-heavy so I prolly wouldn't get any real work done til Wednesday. Meetings can get annoying when they're stacked on top of each other....Just sayin.

Sunday night, Eric and I headed to try a new place instead of our always go-to Mexican restaurant. :) Piatto Cucina is owned and operated by a man who is actually from Italy...and the food definitely reflects it....fabulous! At one point, someone came in and started speaking Italian. We both nodded at each other like "yeah, this is legit." ;) Totally somewhere I want to go again. Just realized we're sitting almost the exact same....haha...

From there, we headed to see Green Hornet. The reviews online were mixed, but I thought it was pretty good... funny...didn't take itself too seriously... It was a little long, but I feel like most movies are a little long these days... or maybe my patience isn't as long...haha.. Whatever. Either way, good, casual, comedic flick.

I cooked today, grocery shopped, booked a hair cut for G dawg (way overdue. She's shagtastic right now...woof), and overall just chilled out.

I saw my DVR caught that new medical drama that came on last week. I thought I was getting ready to watch Private Practice and saw that show. Hmph. I haven't watched it yet. Worth it?

Long and short=It was a good weekend. :) I ordered some moroccan oil today (from a below post) so TBD, but I'm excited to get it! I couldn't find anywhere that had the small bottles in the "light" version, so amazon and I did an exchange tonight.

Whether you had a day off today or not, I hope your weekend was great and your week has started off o the right foot, friends! :)
