Weekend recap

Don’t you just love weekends that are that perfect balance of busy and relaxation? I know I do. I need some time to myself to just chill.

On Friday I worked til 2pm, went out for a run with Lexi (who pooped out after mile 2 and wouldn’t move for 20 minutes) then got ready to meet up with a friend for dinner, drinks and a movie. We had crab legs (wearing fashionable “I Like Crabs” bibs!) and we saw The Bourne Legacy. Last weekend Becky and I watched all three of the Bourne movies, and I think she has created a monster! I’m hoping to read the first book soon. I liked the fourth movie! Despite a new main character and a new author writing under Robert Ludlum, I thought it was very well done! My date hated the ending, but up until that point, he liked it as well! All I know is I love these movies now, and all three of the dvds are going on my Christmas list!

Saturday I got up early and headed to the downtown farmer’s market with Zeke and my friend Ang. I haven’t been to the downtown market in ages for one reason or another, so I was really looking forward to a spinach pupusa and hopefully some good produce. I got my pupusa (and shared with Zeke!) and some summer squash and a Downtown Farmer’s Market reusable tote bag. I had been eyeing these totes for quite a while, but didn’t want to pay the $20 they were charging for them. Last week the market was caught in the rain and a few of them had water stains (that are barely visible!) so they cut prices 50%. I didn’t think twice and finally bought one. I’m starting the transition from plastic bags to using all reusable bags, hopefully this helps!

After the market Zeke and I headed to Grey’s for a lap around the lake, and then it was home for an afternoon of relaxing before heading out again for a bachelorette party. I ended up taking a quick nap and I’m really glad I did.

My friend Anna is getting married in about a month and her bachelorette party was Saturday night. We started at her house and then made our way downtown for dinner at a Dos Rios, a local Mexican restaurant. I had a really good time, but I was trying hard not to drink too much. For one, I wanted to be able to drive home and two, my body is not reacting to alcohol and hangovers very well anymore. I am basically out of commission for the entire day following, and I just don’t find that to be worth it anymore. Overall though, I had a great time and cannot wait to celebrate with her next month when she ties the knot!

Sunday was The Ultimate Lazy Day. I spent the entire day in my pajamas and it felt amazing. I started watching the first season of Felicity on Netflix and got through six episodes, I read a little bit of Gone Girl (which, I am struggling to get into) and took another nap. That evening I was scheduled to do an overnight for work, but other than that, I took it really easy and just relaxed. Felt amazing!

What the highlight of your weekend?
