NWR: What are you looking forward to this weekend?

Re: NWR: What are you looking forward to this weekend?

  • I'm spending the weekend with a bunch of NEYers! 

    @audrewuh and @elle1036 are enroute to NJ and I will see them in just a few hours! We have to go food/alcohol shopping and then I'm taking them to a local bar. 

    Tomorrow I have to work until noon and then the 3 of us are off to the Finger Lakes to meet @buddysmom80, @lennonkdc, @livleighton, and @buggle2! We rented a house right on the lake and it's beautiful! 

    Saturday, we're getting picked up at our house and taken on a wine tour all day! It's going to be a blast. 

    Sunday, a few of us are going to SUP on the lake. We'll be drinking/eating/playing games/lounging all day/night. 

    Monday, I will cry because we all have to part ways and head home.



  • that sounds fun!! I haven't been to a concert in ages. 
  • Ditto what @swazzle said. Except on Monday I'll be crying because I'm visiting my aunt on my way back to CT and she's lonely and won't want me to leave. So if you don't hear from me, I'm being held hostage in Painted Post, NY.

  • @Swazzle @buddysmom80 that sounds awesome!! I hope you guys have fun visiting with everyone. :) 
  • We're having a welcome party for new grad students on Friday, and after that, I'll probably head down to spend the night with my best friend. Saturday, we'll probably have dinner with my future in-laws. Sunday, I made my partner promise that we'll sleep in (and do laundry, but that's his job).

  • @aliciaharrison awww! that's super exciting that it's her first concert. She'll have a blast. And it's pretty cool that gets getting to see FOB rather than a boy band or something cheesy for her first concert. My first concert was nsync lol
  • It sounds like everyone's weekends will be a ton of fun! I'm jealous of the NEY GTG going on!

    Tomorrow I need to run a few errands before the weekend so our Friday will be pretty much a low key type night.

    Saturday is my first bridal shower that's being hosted by my mom's friend. I'm really excited to see what she has planned! Then afterwards I'm either taking FI's grandparents out to dinner or my sister and I will go alcohol shopping.

    Sunday is church and then FI and I need to go grocery shopping and I'll probably have a bunch of Thank You Notes to write.

    I'm kind of jealous that your partner does all the laundry. My BF and I are both very particular about how certain things get washed... so we never have the luxury of not getting to do our own laundry :( that's a very first world problem lol 

    Are you going to do anything with your best friend or just hang out and catch up?
  • @swazzle and @buddysmom80 and everyone, have a great time this weekend! That is a fun crowd right there.

    Tomorrow I am mostly studying, but also going shopping with a friend. It occurred to me that I probably need to wear something other than yoga pants to my friends' wedding next month, so I will be getting a dress for that.

    Saturday I have my orientation for med-surg clinical. I am mostly excited for that, but I will not be happy about getting up at 0430 again.

    Sunday will be just studying again. I am sure I'll see BF at some point during the weekend, but we're not sure when yet. I miss him. =/
  • Everybody have fun with the GTG!

    Um, tomorrow night we have gaming, I think. Saturday BF has gaming as well. Sunday is for football - I'm still projected to win my first fantasy matchup and I've made my picks for the weekend. I play fantasy with BF's coworkers, primarily, and I run picks for my family, so this weekend is huge for me. Real football is finally back tonight!
  • I wish I could join you gals (@swazzle, @buddysmom80, @lennonkdc, @livleighton, and @buggle2)....sounds like a blast!

    I'm hoping to workout this weekend and not work.  Sad but that's my goal for the weekend.  H is excited football is back on so I'm going to cook some fun Sunday grub for him to eat while watching the game too.

  • Oh boy - I'm trying to not get ahead of myself, but I think tomorrow the BF might become a FI!  I talked to him a week or so ago about what was going on, because when we discussed a timeline that time came, and went, and nothing was mentioned. 

    But then all of a sudden he wanted to go out tomorrow after work to a Champagne bar - which surprised me because we are going out the next night to celebrate his birthday.  It's excitig to think about, but, like I said, I'm trying to talk myself into believing it won't happen just yet.

    Then on Sunday we get to babysit my godson and "niece" all day - which means a lot of "kitty kitty kitty" calling while we try to lure the cats out of hiding.

    eeek, i definitely don't miss studying. good luck! :( i hope you get to see your BF too!

    Can you come to me instead??? I'm much more fun to be held hostage with. 

    I have to work, so I can't go to the G2G, but I will see @livleighton and @buggle2 on their way through tomorrow. The rest of you MAY see them if I decide to let them leave. 

    I'm going to see Maroon 5 and Kelly Clarkson tonight, seeing my girls tomorrow afternoon, working on Saturday (first football game of the season WOOT!), and relaxing on Sunday. 

    I would be 100% proud that my first concert was N*Sync, and I would 100% go see 1D. I saw Boyz II Men, 98 Degrees, and NKOTB earlier this summer and it was the best night of my life. Sorry I'm not sorry.

    i'm always so fascinated by people who play fantasy sports. i've never been a big sports person, and my BF isn't into them either, so the whole mentality is weird to me. but it always sounded fun! I felt like it makes watching the games more interesting

    My first concert was NSYNC too, lol. But I would never bring her to go see One Direction or anything like that. And if I did, lots of alcohol would be needed.
    for sure!!! haha

    So jealous! I want in on one of these NY-area meetups one day! BF is from the finger lakes and we were just up there a few weeks ago, I totally wanted to go on a wine tour but we didn't have a chance to. My favorite wine - Red Cat - is from up there, I totally recommend trying some!

  • Tomorrow (my weekend starts tonight because I don't have Friday classes) my bf and I are going to visit his dad and family. His dad was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer and had surgery for it today. Thankfully the prognosis looks good with the surgery. We're going to help around the house and hang out with them. Saturday my bf works most of the day. I hope to get some studying done. I think my parents may be coming to visit. Sunday, I plan on sleeping in and doing more homework. In the evening, we're getting our "family" (the two of us and the dog) pictures done. I'm excited for that. :)

    @queenofhearts1728: Stuck in the box again ... I'm playing because BF's coworkers are fun, he's fun, and I spent the whole first year laughing at them (seriously, they didn't even manage to be on time for their own draft and the system picked their teams for them). They then told me I had to put my money where my mouth is. I came in 4th last year, but this year I drafted in more of a "moneyball" style, so I'm really interested in seeing how that plays out.

    For sure, some Chicken Wings.  I do mine Indian-style with a lot of Indian spices (seriously, like 10) since H is Indian and adores them.  I'll probably do some chicken thighs too on the grill(marinated in a combination of soy sauce, tamarind soda and garlic), with some beans (I pan fry some turkey sausage, then throw in a combination of kidney and black beans and then some spices, mash it all up and yum), and then do a taco feast with that (guac, pico, etc.).  Aaaaand, this is why I have to work out this weekend...I'll be "sampling" all of the above.
  • VACATION!!! me and the bf are leaving Saturday morning for a week long vacation in Tennessee :)
