Happy Friday the 13th!
They keep reminding everyone that it's Friday the 13th. Anyone here superstitous? I never have been, but I think it's interesting how some people are SUPER extreme superstitious.
Any good plans for the weekend?

Re: Happy Friday the 13th!
Ni big plans for tomorrow, just working from home if I can and cleaning. Sunday we are probably going to see Thor at the IMAX. All that muscle on the big screen. It sounds wonderful.
I'm having cramps from Hell. I wish I could just go home and curl up in a ball, but no...I have to work. Ugh...
This weekend will be Wedding Errand Weekend. I have to mail out 4 packages of wedding stuff to Will's parents (OOT bags stuff, and the last 5 pomanders I had to finish, I've really been procrastinating in sending them out), swing by Michael's for some flowers for my toss bouquet since our DJ and Will's parents talked us into doing a bouquet/garter toss, getting groceries to get us through next week and snack for our flight, and hopefully going to the gym somewhere in there.
It's crunch-time.

Starting with...MY BACHELORETTE PARTY! I'm looking forward to it. It'll be kind of low key because, if any of you remember, my MOH and one BM tried to get us to go paint art instead of going out. I nixed that idea, but gave a "compromise". So we're kind of doing the compromise of dinner and drinks, then those that want to continue on can do so, and those that don't can go home. My Aunt and Mom got me a hotel room downtown as my Shower gift, so no worries there for me.
Saturday is Bikes, Brews and BBQ. It's something our friends have done now for 3 consecutive years. Starting at noon (another reason not to go wild tonight) we ride our bikes to a local brewery's tasting room, then have a beer. Hop back on the bikes to the brewery's restaurant, have another beer (or water). Hop back on the bikes to the next brewery, get the drift. Then the fourth and last stop is a restaurant/brewpub where we'll have dinner and relax a little before riding our bikes back to the house. Total round trip of biking is about 15 miles. So, not too bad for someone who doesn't ride much.
Sunday will be recovery/ wedding prep day. I hope everyone has a speedily moving Friday! Watch out for black cats.
Edit: braindead...
As for weekend, leaving for an out of town wedding. My best friend's son is getting married. Our families have been friends for 25+ years and our boys have been good friends since they were about 4. My son is in the wedding party so it'll be neat to see him in a tux.
Then again, he could just be excited that he gets to walk down the aisle with my 13 year-old cheerleader niece, but oh well...

Planning / Married / TTD /
Tonight we're taking the now 19 y/o (legal drinking age) housemate/roomate to the bar to celebrate her birthday. Should be fun.
Tomorrow we're going to a giant indoor playground to play with our friends and their triplets. That will be awesome.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Our apartment is a wreck. H cleaned some last night (thank goodness, it was getting overwhelming) and our plan is to keep at it this weekend.
This is the first day all week our internet connection at work has worked, I feel very out of touch.

Today is the 5th anniversary of my first date with DH. Wow.
Not much planned for the weekend, just working on the yard and a couple of bike rides and hikes.
Good luck with your news and presentation today, Nubmers. You'll rock it.
Have a great day, everyone!
Morning ladies!
Tonight DH gets home from his business trip. I've missed him. But tomorrow I have to work a fashion show with the Marketing Dir. Should be fun, not my normal day of sitting behind the desk. And Home Depot is comimg to measure for the install of the hardwoods. This room reno is taking forever, but with DH's travel schedule I'm glad he's hiring someone to do it for us.
Good Luck with the 5k Barb!
And no superstitions.
Finally Friday! My friend is coming to spend the weekend with us, and we're going to our company's "Extravaganza Weekend" tonight and tomorrow - should be a great time
Hope everyone's cramps get better ~ Steph, I got an IUD 3 years ago and it was the best decision I've ever made. No PMS, super-light periods, and nothing to remember to take every day - I'm horrible at remembering my BCP so the IUD was a great option!
Enjoy your days!

[QUOTE]mehg- if it makes you feel better, I got an IUD three weeks ago. I'm still cramping like a mofo. It's awful. Thank god my body hasn't become immune to Aleve yet. Oh, and italian food sounds delicious now.

I truely believe Aleve and Italian Food is the cure for cramps...true story!
Actually in my case its Pamprin, which I told someone 3 weeks ago to get!...hint,hint.
I am off to the gym to do yoga with FI before class
Tomorrow is his grad ceremony and we're having a little bbq with our families to celebrate so I'll be getting ready for that after school today!

I love Friday the 13th. Or at least this one.
I had a follow-up interview with a place I had an interview with Tuesday. It's looking very promising.
I love the number 13, and I had a step-sister born on Friday the 13th. She's pretty awesome.
If my purchase somewhere tallies up to $6.66 I add a pack of gun or something.
I'm not really supersitious but I am paranoid so I don't really think that helps things much, lol
BK....yayyy for BP this weekend, hope you have a fabulous time
Mehg...hope you feel better, screw 'em all and go home
Numbers & Wrkn...good luck to you both on the job status
Crash...super congrats to you for graduation!
FI is working tomorrow so I will have the day to myself. Probably going to plant some flowers and go see "Bridesmaids" with the bf's.
I am super excited that we finished the mock-up for the wedding invitations....my mom is amazing!
I'n kind of superstitious, though not about Friday the 13th.
My FMIL asked me to go shopping with her tomorrow. She is wiped out and says she needs a break. My one FSIL just had a baby, and the other FSIL is due any day, and their husbands work out of town, so my FSIL has been on Grammy/Nanny duty with them helping (the one FSIL has two other ones under 5 years old). So I can see why she needs a day off! I am excited because I want to go buy 2 giant pots to put on either side of our front door and plant flowers in the, I am thinking 2 giant red ones (I love red!).
It's so sunny and beautiful here right now, so, I am in a super good mood. How can a Friday ever be a bad thing?
Today was the hard part of getting married...paying all the final bills. Since the wedding is 2 weeks from today, the remaining balances for most vendors were due today. Ouch!

Oh bummer OOTB. I keep thinking I am going to send some payments to the vendors to cushion the inevitable blow of making all the final payments....nah, haven't. It's a nice idea though.
