my weekend....

wow...so apparently i was way too busy this past weekend to even blog so i need to play some catch up. it was a great weekend and i havent had days off work in so long that i was glad i chose to stay around austin and have fun.

friday...no work. i got so much done around town and around my house -dishes, errands, napping. the napping is clearly very important. it was so nice to just be able to relax and not have any obligations. and then friday night i had plans to go out with alyssa. so, out we go. we started out getting dinner at 'manuel's' downtown - awesome. i have never been there, but i have passed by it a million times and dang...it was so good. then we walked around and ended up at a place called 'betsy's bar'. i am not huge into the bar scene, but any bar that has super mario brothers and an atari, definitely okay by me. we hung out there for a while and just at on the couch and chatted and laughed. then, because we are old, we got tired and went home around 1:30. a great night all around.

saturday i woke up and did laundry right away...i knew if i didnt get it out of the way, i would have put it off all day and then had dirty scrubs all week. i went and got chuy's queso for lunch...perfection per usual. i did some more running around and getting things done - had to go to target and walmart...although now i cant even remember what i needed. then we had plans to go to rebecca's halloween party. alyssa and i had every intention of dressing up, but the night didnt go quite according to plan and we had some slight drama and hang ups which made us late to the party and therefore, we went in our regular clothes. and that was more than okay with me because i hate dressing up in costumes. although we did manage to put on some hats when we got there, just to get into the spirit of things. it was a fun time and we wished we could have stayed later, but both alyssa and i had to get up and work on sunday. boo.

so that was it for all the fun stuff...actually work on sunday was pretty good - we didnt have very many kids on the floor at all so it was a slow day which is rare and a nice thing to have every now and then.

the weather here is amazing right now...every time i go outside, i think about how much i love it and how great it is. i love fall. its cold enough for a hoodie in the morning and then by lunch, its perfect outside.

i have so much homework and school stuff going on this week, it is unreal. i have 3 tests and i havent managed to be all that responsible in studying for them and taking them in a timely fashion, so that means i have to get up tomorrow morning and go and take a test because the deadline for it is tomorrow. then i have a test with a deadline on thursday and i am pretty sure that i wont be studying for it tomorrow so i will be having to take that one on thursday. my classes got canceled for thursday though so i can just study and go up to campus and take the test and be done. phew.

i will have to write about today...tomorrow...and then get back on track. dang, this whole blogging nightly thing is pretty tricky. it was an awesome idea at first though...then i get home and get sucked into whatever programs i tivoed for the night and it becomes a lost cause.
