this weekend was one for gettin' shit done. and i did. big time. felt. so. good.
Saturday: woke up at noon (yes – you heard/read me. 12 hours of sleep), and packed up in time to meet denver and his friends at the Gladstone while they finished up brunch. Then went to see daniel’s new place, and THEN denver’s cousin eric’s new place. We walked back, and I then spent the afternoon working on various new and exciting projects (more details to come - hint hint, re:claim work in progress, live and in living colour). NOT AWESOME: I was at the bell jar, which I CLEARLY wanted to love as a result of it’s reference to my favourite sylvia plath, and their free internet? Not so free after about 40 minutes. Fan-effin-tastic. So I packed up in a huff, and left. And went to starbucks. I then planned on meeting friends out for drinks and dinner, but I wasn’t feeling 100%, so instead I sat at home, had a nap(ish), and watched Philadelphia, and part of where the wild things are (those both being part of my ‘weekend movie stack’). Then, my landlords invited me up for hockey, cheese, wine, and hangover part 2. Love love love.
Sunday: slept in – again (yessssss!), and then cleaned a bit, and packed up for a day of work. Spent 6 hours in starbucks, working my buns off, and then went home, to bead, organize, clean, talk to my sisters (and play phone tag with my cousin – more than we already have), make Christmas gifts (ahhhhhh!!!!) and catch another mouse with my landlord. Watched zoolander, the rest of where the wild things are, and about a boy. Made lunches for the week, and cleaned the shit out of my apt. organized like a crazy person, and got my inspiration boards up. Felt. So. Good. but then, as usual, got to bed WAY too late. Alas. All in a weekend’s work for me.
Hope everyone had a FANTASTIC weekend. last of the fall (ish) weather!
flowers from a friend, who knows i've been having a 'particularly frustrating' month at work; sausage and beer with charm - best. friday. ever; and my sparkle cozy from starbucks... for beer coolness maintenence!; fooseball with denver and friends on saturday; the beauty of a coffee shop in the sun. love.
Friday: After a particularly frustrating day at work, I met up with denver after work, to stop at aboveground art supplies, and pick up some... supplies. we chatted, and i got ready at home to meet charm, and then drove denver home. stopped at urban outfitters, where they were having a sale, and got a SMASHING blazer-ish, for $20. yessss amaze. then met charm, for some sausage and beer. Yes. You heard me right. Sausage. We went to wurst on king street, and enjoyed the giant sausage fest. Had some beer, chatted lots, and laughed a ton, while enjoying the company of the incredibly handsome bartender. As well as old school beats. So much so, that we vowed to make it a regular Friday thing. Food was AWESOME. I then drove charm home, and got home in time to get into bed at midnight. MIDNIGHT. What a glorious weekend bedtime.
