all over the place

i felt like i was ALL over the place this weekend. running around like a crazy person!

friday was our annual meeting at work to discuss what happened last year and what we want for this next year. it was a short and very informative meeting and in true lmr style, we cut out two hours early and went to happy hour! it was great to have almost everyone together for happy hour and seriously get to chat with people that don't make it out ever on regular work week nights. so that lasted til about 6:30 then i went to have dinner with craig and his kids cause it was zoe's birthday and honestly i would've gone home and to sleep early if not to dinner. the kids were hyper as kids are but hilarious as kids can be. and at one point zoe declared that she was now my kid!! hahaha ...... riiiiight! she decided later though that she'd stay craig's kid cause i was going out for indian food the next night instead of chucky cheese!

saturday was a goooooood workout just a little frustrating. we did the tamarak brick where we start in the parking lot by the beach. we head south for about 2.5 miles and loop back. then we run .7 miles down the boardwalk and .7 miles back on the sand. i think my legs were still tired from the 7 mile run that jess and i did on thurs cause they were NOT cooperating. they kept cramping up and turned rock solid and refused to work at all. so the first loop i was the mentor in the back making sure that everyone found the turnaround. so i started off behind with legs that kept cursing at me. then the second loop, donovan and i walked about a quarter of a mile back to find jess who apparently had a flat according to a biker who passed by. we found out eventually that she didn't have a flat and we were just wasting time! oops!! so, that put me even further behind. the third loop wasn't bad and three was all i had in me for the day. i eventually caught back up with jess and we finished around noon. of course had to head to lunch but stopped by b&l first for some gear. grabbed some pizza and beer and had a nice little lunch with the filpi's and jess and wife (i'm horrible and forget her name).

after all that fiasco, i needed a nap so took about a half an hour of one. headed over to grab kuu and we headed to indian. i love ashoka! this time though the chef got a little happy with the spices and everyone was sweating! we headed to kate's after for some cranium then i had to take kuu home. came back to hang out and we headed to the blarney across the street. live music, good drinks, and some wackos that made the night interesting. bry got drunk and we decided to head home (luckily there was a last call to cut bry off!). sobered up by looking through pics and just random videos online. headed home and into bed around 3!!

sunday was glorious.......i slept til 1 :0) i haven't done that in FOREVER and it was wonderful! drug my lazy butt out of bed to go visit tita rica. headed over to the boss's and hung out for a few hours. then headed off to get kuu and supplies for rica. spent a little time hanging out after the store run and got to talk with rica about the coming weeks and her treatment etc. i'm gonna head over there after work today to hang out and help kuu with her science fair project! then headed to the filpi's to end the night. i love those two - they're definitely keepers in my book! we watched the end of the game, had some good wine, even better spicy sausage sandwiches, and watched house. i eventually drug my butt up and out to my car and off home.

all in all, GREAT weekend just a LOT of running around! after all that, i need a few mellow nights at home! this coming weekend promises to be crazy as well!
