Weekend Fin

What a crazy weekend. Well, not so much crazy as JUST different.

Friday night: Drove home from work, sat for an hour, then drove to Menomonee Falls for the dress rehearsal for the concert on Saturday -- it went well. I was in the zone and concentrating and all that good stuff. Came home, laid in bed and watched Firefly until I fell asleep.

Saturday: Get woken up by Jake, calling me at 7:45! grrrr.... I could really only hear static, so that was crappy, because he could hear me perfectly. So, that was an auscipious start to the day. Got up, sat around a bit, when to Target and bought some stuff to do laundry and got $20 to put on the laundry card. Came back, got lazy and didn't do laundry. I bought the DVD's of Firefly, because they have the extras and stuff, and watched that. Starting making my Christmas cards. Made Rice-a-roni for dinner. When to the concert, which was okay. My concentration was shot, because I had only sat around all day and I woke up so early. Finally, when we played the Hanson Symphony #2, it was back a lot more, but still a little in and out. It was good. I hope that I get to come back. Went to Uno's in Menomonee Falls with Mom and Dad, had boneless buffalo wings -- !!!!!!! -- and a beer. Drove home, laid in bed and watched Ghost Hunters off the iPod. Was hacking the internet in bed and read Pat's blog and found out that Colio had made the long trip up to EC. Texted him and he was driving to FDL that night. So, made suggesting that if he wanted to rest, he could totally stop here -- since FDL is only an hour away -- kind of dumb. Oh well. Junkyard.

Today: Turned on the TV in the am to make sure nothing horrible had happened (and, since I have now read johnseb's blog, something could have, but the fates were kind), since I have problems with that sort of thing, waking up alone on a Sunday morning in bed and not turning on the TV. That's what happened the AM of Oct. 16th. I can't jump that horrible feeling hurdle yet.

But, everything was A-ok. Watched the fucking Packer game. BRRAH! Did laundry at Mom and Dad's. Came home and put laundry away and am now reading blogs. And posting.

Sorry for the play by play of the weekend, but that's what you get. :)

New job starts tomorrow. Thanksgiving and Nims and Salwass are coming down Friday!! I'm excited to have visitors. I don't know if I'm heading down to Chicago yet, because I have to balance my wanting to go with Jake's having to work Friday and Saturday. I'd like to, but...I'd also like to get stuff done in the apartment too. I hope that they stay on Saturday too. We can hang out and stuff while Jake is at work.

I have to start working out again. I was moving clothes around and I have at least 20 pants that I can't wear right now, but I used to wear them all the time. 15 pounds should do it. I just need to work at it. Not really the right time of year for that sort of thing. I will start trying again though. I need to. I can't afford new clothing.

Probably will be in EC the Holiday Concert weekend for Joy of Hastings party -- which had better be happening. It's worth the effort of driving up there.

Okay, well, I'm off to putz around the apartment some more!
