Weekend Wrap-Up
Friday night I spoke to DG on the phone (for those of you wondering, we didn’t go out on Thursday, we’re going out Monday instead) then did laundry, wrapped birthday presents, and fell asleep ten minutes into Law & Order.
Saturday I woke up bright and early to drive down to San Diego for Julie’s son’s fourth birthday party. There were so many kids, nearly half of whom belonged to high school friends of ours–that part was a little weird for me. But the party was a lot of fun, and I got a chance to catch up with Julie’s family which is always a blast. I then went straight from the party to my dad’s office to get my eyes checked again. Apparently the antibiotics I was on last time I was in town affected my vision so we got a bad reading from that exam. Go figure.
That evening, my parents and I hit up their local sushi place then came home where I setup their wireless router, then had ice cream and watched Law & Order; exciting, I know. As a side note, my parents’ house is now almost complete and so gorgeous. Unlike last time, there are sinks, however still no mirrors. But one of the coolest things is that since we’re all tall, they had the counters put in a bit higher than standard counters which should make it really nice when I have a lot of baking to do for the holidays. But anyway.
Sunday we went into downtown Del Mar for brunch at Pacifica Breeze. I’ve never been a big breakfast person, but the last couple of times I’ve been to the Breeze, I’ve ordered the Breeze Huevos. I think I’ve found a new favorite food.
After brunch, we stopped at Banana and I got a super cute skirt, shirt, and jeans. Two notes: 1. These are the best jeans ever. 2. Half of the clothes in the store reminded me of 1985. Following Banana, I picked up a new flat iron that claims to have ceramic/titanium plates (has anyone tried it?) then hit the road. Traffic was pretty light until I got off the freeway–I didn’t realize The Who was playing at The Bowl tonight. Oh well. Even though I didn’t get a chance to test drive any cars, the rest of the weekend was fun, and my parents’ house is absolutely beautiful!
In other news, Monday I’m having lunch with Keith and Nicole. We all work in the same area and decided it’d be fun to meet up. The rest of this week is going to be nuts. I have drinks with DG on Monday, my monthly girls’ night with Ann-Marie, Jen, and Marisa on Tuesday, a speed dating type thing on Wednesday (stay tuned for the details), and dinner with a girlfriend on Thursday.
The weekend is packed solid too, and Esther, who will be in town for the GA, managed to score me a ticket to the private Guster/Leevees show on Sunday night. Speaking of the show, I got an email from cute-boy-who-damn-lives-with-his-girlfriend about how to get tickets; he also said he’ll be at the show and asked if I wanted to hang out because he’ll be there alone. I wrote him back and said definitely. Hey, maybe he has some nice, single friends.
