So how was your weekend?




Mine was all right. Friday night we went to BWW. Apps, wings, and beer were had, and we watched the Seahawks-Packers game. BF passed out in food-and-booze coma when we got home - it was glorious.
Saturday we kind of had to take it easy because I was a wee bit hung over. I didn't get the laundry I wanted done, but the housework is at least acceptable until Thursday or so.
Yesterday was draft for fantasy football. And because I know you all care so much [/sarcasm], here's my team:
QB Matt Ryan RB Marshawn Lynch RB Steven Jackson FLEX Reggie Bush WR Brandon Marshall WR Wes Welker TE Owen Daniels D/ST Steelers K Randy Bullock
QB Matt Ryan RB Marshawn Lynch RB Steven Jackson FLEX Reggie Bush WR Brandon Marshall WR Wes Welker TE Owen Daniels D/ST Steelers K Randy Bullock
BE Pierre Garcon
BE Hakeem Nicks
BE Vick Ballard
BE Greg Jennings
BE Zac Stacy
BE Matt Schaub
BE Jacquizz Rodgers
ESPN, 10-team league, standard scoring. At least I have depth at WR and there's not much depth to be had at RB this year. They'd better not go down.
Then I knitted because it was way too hot to do laundry. Gonna be way too hot to do laundry today too but I have to because I'm out of clothing.
Tell me! What did you do?

Re: So how was your weekend?
I hear you, I didn't get any housework done other than the dishes.
Friday- I had to work late.
Saturday- More work but then H and I went for a dinner firework cruise around the city of Chicago which was really romantic.
Sunday- Work plus a friend's baby shower.
I feel like I didn't have much of a weekend with all the work I had to fit in but, what can you do?
This weekend was the bomb diggity on my end. Friday I worked my night shift. It was incredibly slow all night, but it was much easier to stay awake than I thought it would be. Overall, I could do it again, so that's cool.
Saturday, I slept after work, then went over to BF's house. He had had a crappy day, so we figuratively licked each other's wounds and watched TV and were general bums.
Sunday was great. BF and I went trap-shooting. I am such a beginner and his guns are all basically way too big for me, but these little trips have been pretty fun, so someday I may invest in something that fits me better. I did all right (for absolutely sucking, I mean), but BF was awesome! Then we went home, ate some amazing fried chicken from a local place, and flipped between Duck Dynasty and Save The Last Dance (weird combination, I know!).
The only downsides to this weekend were:
1) I am aching all over from operating BF's clay thrower (??? I have no idea if that's what it's called). That thing is the best arms and thigh work-out ever.
2) I got nothing done in terms of housework or school, and this week is already super-busy. So time to get off TK and be productive.
Oooo - I ate way too much food this weekend (I called it our last "hurrah" before buckling down) - the amazing Hot Doug's on Saturday, then out to celebrate my godson's birthday Saturday-Sunday (which means MORE amazing food from my cousin). Definitely food coma heaven.
@bethsmiles, what happened to your foot?
@hummingbird125 I'm sorry that happened! That's why I hesitate to bring my dog to a dog park. I would love for him to get socialized with other dogs, but we're doing that with people that we know and their dogs, I just wouldn't feel right if he was playing with stranger's dogs, I hope Kaya feels better!
Friday night we went grocery shopping and had Arby's for dinner. I didn't feel like cooking and it's down the street from Big Y. Then I put together a towel cake for my friend's Jack & Jill shower and I'm SO FREAKING PISSED I never took a picture. It looked so good.
Saturday I went to the mall since I realized I was wearing shitty ON flip flops with my sundress so I treated myself to a new pair of sandals which were really cute! I could've bought more shoes, I have a problem with NOT spending money at Aldo.
After that, I arrived to my friend's (the bride) mom's house to help set up for the shower. Well, come to find out from the other BM and another friend that was organizing the shower, the bride's mom was just going out now to buy food...we call her and she tells us the chairs and tables are in the garage. 25 people RSVPed to the party and there were 2 tables and 3 chairs...luckily everyone pulled their resources together and we got enough chairs and tables for everyone. The party was a success for the bride and BF and I snuck out early because I was just done with any WR stuff that day. We got home, changed and went to his old roommate's house to let Quigley play with their new puppy (Bluetick Coonhound) they got along pretty well.
Sunday, I made BF a huge breakfast, then our neighbor came over to play Xbox with BF. I went to BBB to return some stuff, came back home and brought Quigley to PetSmart. I bought him a ton of toys and his Halloween costume (he's going to be a penguin). When I got home BF and the neighbor were still playing Xbox. I think the neighbor left at like 6pm or so. Then BF and I had dinner, watched Big Brother and went to bed.
@bethsmiles - that stinks! Hopefully it doesn't take too long to heal. And how exciting, getting your finger sized! When my BF and I were talking about it I was such a dork about it - I printed off an online ring sizer you could make out of paper and did it a work!
@Hummingbird125 - Jeez, it is the scariest thing ever when your dog screams like that. Unfortunately the dog park is not always the safest place. My dog (Cookie, a 12 year old Shih-tzu) only gets to go when I am taking care of my mom's dog, a 3 year old chocolate lab named Amber. Cookie will ignore all of the other dogs, but if any of them start to give her grief Amber is racing towards them and stepping between. Not aggressive, but she does bark a few times and growl until they go away. It is really nice to know that the dogs have each others backs because Cookie does the same thing and barks if Amber is in trouble so that I can intervene.
My weekend-
Friday- Spent the day with my BF. I worked then after I watched movies and had drinks with BF and friends
Saturday- I worked all day and then scrubbed my bathroom and got coffee with my mom
Sunday- Worked all day and then spent a bit bothering BF at work (he enjoyed it :-P), got ice cream with a friend, and then did a quick work out session with my roommate (mostly stretching since I was sore).

My weekend was pretty cool besides the fact that i slept through most of it.
Saturday - Worked all day , went to my BF sister birthday cookout (slept through most of it) idk why her cookouts can NEVER start on time (LoL). Came home put the princess to bed. Cleaned up with BF and watched some type of crime show until well fell asleep. (who goes to sleep at a cookout anyway, smh)
Sunday- Made breakfast, watched a bit of tv. played on my phone (instagram, twitter, facebook) took a nap, cleaned up, BF made Lasagna for dinner, cleaned up, then went to bed.
Monday -Back to work!
