Weekend recap

Weekend recap time!

Friday after work, Nicole and I hit up the mall before meeting up with Chaz and Phillip. I had to return a dress and ended up leaving with two clutches and another dress. After the mall, Nicole and I met up with the guys and went to dinner at Famous Dave's.

After dinner, we played Mario Kart on Wii for a bit. Let me just tell you, every time I play Wii, I want one more and more. Then we walked to Gateway to watch a movie. I was wearing my new-ish gladiator sandals and let me tell you, it was not fun to walk those few blocks it took to get there. Phil ended up having to carry me part of the way, what a good sport.

Saturday, I was supposed to go boating, but being irrational in my half-awake and overly tired state, I for some reason decided not to go. When I finally woke up in the late morning I regretted that decision. Craving some sun, I decided to go out to pool by myself. I ended having a really relaxing few hours laying out in the sun reading. The only down side was that I forgot my iPod and ended up having to listen to the pool's music.

Driving home after the pool, I decided that I needed a pedicure so I stopped at this place called V-J Nails & Spa. This lady named Ann gave me the best pedicure that I've ever received. It was so amazing that I want to start going to that place to get my nails done as well.

That night Sean and I went to our favorite dining spot, Joy Luck. The service and the food was great, as usual! Following dinner, we went to see The Happening because we're pretty big fans of Mark Wahlberg. Lets just say I was less than impressed. I'll be real honest though, I did get scared quite a bit. I'm just not a fan of all the gore and the ending. I'll leave it at that for people that haven't seen it and still want to.

Sunday, Adam, Steph and I had to do our last minute Father's Day gift shopping. We spent some time walking around the mall and I ate a yummy chocolate dipped strawberry from Godiva. We wrapped my dad's gifts with cutouts from a golf magazine. I got a picture of it that I'll have to upload when I get my camera back, I left it at my dad's.

Dinner was delicious, everyone brought something so there was loads of food. I'm pretty sure I ate my weight's worth of food. Lisa's parents, brother and his wife came over for dinner and after we all played Apples to Apples. It was a pretty loud game, but lots of fun. I went home and went to bed by 9pm and I still felt full!

All in all, a great weekend. How about you?

Weekend recap.

Another weekend, come and gone!

Friday after work, I had to go find a dress to wear to Steph's wedding. I headed for the Gateway and started out at Forever 21. I actually ended up finding a lot of stuff to try on there. I narrowed it down to two dresses (this or that with this belt). I decided on the black dress with the belt, but as I was standing in line, I found another black dress that looked cute. I decided to buy it without trying it on. I left with the two dresses, the belt, a clutch and and a vest.

Next, I went to Urban Outfitters in search of a certain dress. I couldn't seem to find it, but I did walk past a pair of Lux Cigarette Leg gray jeans. I've been wanting to buy a pair for a while now, so I tried them on and ended up getting them. I thought that they were a pair that was on my wishlist, but turns out the pair that I bought aren't available online. I had a hard time deciding on whether or not I should keep them because there was another pair on my wishlist that I really wanted. Just barely today I decided that I will keep them.

After shopping, I met up with Phil. We went out to dinner at The Dodo and then we went to see You Don't Mess With The Zohan. Oh. My. Lame. Honestly, I laughed a little, but most of the time I was shaking my head and rolling my eyes. Really, I could've gone the rest of my life without seeing Adam Sandler thrusting his stuffed crotch that much. It was also way too long. Two hours is pretty long for a comedy, I kept thinking, "Man this is a long movie!" So, yeah, I'd recommend skipping this one.

Saturday, I had to go to the cheer girls' car wash. The weather was alright. It was one of those days that it was warm in the sun, but cold in the shade. Whenever the clouds were covering the sun, it was so cold. I felt bad for the girls because they had to get wet and wash cars. I just sat huddled in my blanket most of the time. They did well though, it was nice to see so many people come out and support them.

That night I went to Steph's wedding reception. It was fun to see people that I don't see on a regular basis and get a chance to chat. The colors were black and red, Steph had picked out these super cute black dresses with white polka dots. They all wore red jewelry and shoes, it was so cute! I didn't have my camera so when I steal pictures from Nicole, I'll post them up for everyone to see.

Sunday, I finally got caught up with the rest of Season 4 of The Office. The finale was awesome. There were a ton of OMG moments, I can't wait for the next season now! Sean and I went for brunch and then we browsed around Cabela's. I found out that they have their own restaurant there, which I found mildly strange. Later, we went to see Iron Man, which I ended up really liking.

Things that made my day.

-The fact that someone keeps searching for "because I think too much" to get to this blog rather than just saving it in their bookmarks.

-The addition to my calendar at work.
