Good lord, but I'm overwhelmed. I had a great weekend, I'm not saying I didn't. It just kept going and going and going. It was all great stuff, but WAY too social, and at some point today, I shut-down and napped. And everyone knows how much I heart napping. I also think I need to be placed in solitary confinement for a week, just to get over all this manic socializing I've been doing lately.On Friday afternoon, I met my friend G. for lunch at Mickeys. He was in town from Virginia and I hadn't seen him for way to long. It was a brief lunch, but really nice. He seems happy and is in a great relationship and I'm so glad of all that. After that, I went running and then did something I swear I wouldn't - I went to the big scary maul on black Friday. It was pretty late in the afternoon, so it actually wasn't too bad, and my skin didn't even burn off or anything. Weird.
Here is a picture of some RAWK!On Saturday, my family all descended on my house and it was loud and we did our early Christmas and ate Chinese take-out for lunch. One of my cousins was coming through town and decided to stop by with his family. It was nice, but man, I need a bigger apartment for when the family converges. Everyone was finally gone by 6'ish. I wanted to take a nap, but I had to start getting ready for the show at the Picador.
This is me and my friends and one guy I didn't know.I putzed around and took my time, and finally made it to the show around 10. There were so many people in from out of town, and I was pretty socially overwhelmed. I had a great time. Mr. B. actually showed up and we had a good and necessary talk. DJ and her crew were there too, I didn't get to talk to them as much as I wanted. I also didn't get to take pictures of FMDM's band like I promised him I would, and I felt bad about that, but I have a good excuse.
These are my friends on PBR.That's right. It's called the PBR tallboy. Because I was trying to save money, when I saw my friend Brooke with one of those in her hand, I figured that would be a really, really good idea. Crazy thing was, I was really really wrong. Like tequila, apparently, the PBR tallboy is never a good idea for me. So, after one of those, I was suddenly distracted and my bar ADD was on overdrive. I still had tons of fun and was very happy I made myself leave the house.
Back to today - now do you see why I needed to nap? Sure, I still ran a bunch of errands and drove the girls all over hell, but I didn't run or get groceries or a few other things I normally do on Sunday. I guess that means I'll be hitting the ground running at the beginning of this week for sure.

My weekend was here and gone like a flash. I cooked on Thursday for the family, went grocery shopping on Friday and did nothing the rest of the weekend. Your weekend sounds like it was a ton of fun.
PBR is never, ever a good idea. I always end up doing stupid things when drinking those...
...or drinking anything in general as this weekend has shown me.
Hope you got caught up on your rest!
Wow, sounds like a great weekend Churlita. I bet you are even more fun under the influence of PBR, if that is even possible :-)
That is clearly way too much achievement for one weekend. When do you get your weekend break to help you recover from the weekend?
Almost every plan goes out the window this time of year. Socializing is SUPER important, so it's good you did that!!
Oh, you KNOW you did too much when your BLOG makes your readers tired. Luckily, it's getting late so the nap will be a lot like going to sleep.
AlienCG,
Your weekend sounds more relaxing. I'm jealous.
Susan,
I'm still working on it. I hope your week goes better for you.
LauraB.
Only if you think loud is fun.
Mr Atrocity,
I keep asking myself the same question.
Poptart,
Thank you. I'll use that as my excuse, if you don't mind.
Booda Baby,
In fact I plan on going to sleep right now.
