Weekend recap

This weekend was a nice mix of being busy and relaxing. Too often I spend the entire weekend relaxing and accomplish nothing, or I am busy the whole time and feel like I didn't get to rest enough. But not this one.

Friday afternoon was happy hour at Jovita's on South 1st, next door to Freddie's Place. My good friends Phil and Danny (1/3 of Flatcar Rattlers) play there together during happy hour occasionally. It's usually fairly empty that time of day, but they have half price margaritas and chips and salsa, so it is totally worth going.

Saturday, my roommate/sister woke me up at 11:00 begging me to go do stuff with her. It was pouring down rain, but I did anyway. We went to get pedicures/waxed. I got a very dark purple color that looks almost black and she got bright tomato red. Totally suits both of us. We then ran through the rain to Target next door. I purchased necessary toiletries and a couple of C9 Champion dry-fit shirts for the gym. Because I am going to force myself to go to the gym at least twice this week. We then headed to Central Market for lunch from the cafe. They have the best French Onion Soup ever and a damn good antipasto panini. A trip to Whole Earth rounded out the afternoon before I headed home to watch college football for a few hours while it continued to pour down rain. Saturday night was another trip to Jovita's to see all of Flatcar Rattlers play. Greatest show ever. I may or may not have spent $48 on margaritas and shots and a bluegrass band may or may not have broken out into an impromtu Snoop Dogg song, complete with fiddle and banjo...

Yesterday was the epitome of a lazy Sunday. Didn't wake up until 12:00. Didn't change out of my pajamas until 5:00. Went to N.'s house to watch NFL football and eat pizza and drink pinot grigio last night. Pretty good ending to the weekend.

All in all, I:

  • drank a lot of booze
  • spent a lot of money
  • watched a lot of live music
  • watched a lot of football
  • slept a lot

Perfect.
