haha. i'm already laughing at my title. it's a throwback to just one of the many amazing things i did this weekend. but we'll get there.
honestly, at the outset, i wasn't all that excited about this weekend. it seemed like there were a lot of fun things planned, but i just was more in the mood to sit around and do nothing, so it was almost a bad thing that i had so many plans. especially considering that i am moving next weekend (yey!) and that will be quite the strenuous effort i'm sure. but - once i got into everything and got the momentum going ... it was cramazing. (crazy + amazing = my new stupid word that i'm kind of obsessed with :) )
friday - even though we got off to kind of a late start, eating at muldoon's was phenomenal. good food, and it was such an amazing double date for me because it seems to be the start of a long pattern of such nights (considering it was with my new roomie and her new boyfriend!!!) it was sad that we didn't make it to the dupage county fair in time to get in, but no lie, watching from the parking lot was almost better. we didn't have to pay, i didn't feel claustrophobic, and we could just leave whenever we wanted to! :) also - praise allah that dan and i finally BOUGHT the breakup, because i'm pretty sure that we've bought it at least twice with all the rental and late fees we've spent watching it so far. and also amazing that despite all our plans, we managed to watch it two or three times this weekend.
saturday - working out = amazing. it was such a beautiful day to go running, and run i did! it felt nice to get sweaty, and even though i'm really sore now, that feels pretty good too. i can't wait til i join the gym and start working out on a regular basis. i really miss it. and i miss the way i feel afterward. (i was really good this morning, pts, i could have gotten mickey d's breakfast or even a bagel, but i went to jewel and got yogurt and oatmeal! hooray for self discipline!) shopping was ... one of those things that's supposed to be a chore, but for some reason, didn't feel like one due to dan's amazing company :) and also the fact that we got to go to the pet store!!! and since it was saturday, everyone had their cutest ever little doggies for me to vicariously enjoy! :) we watched the dogs playing in doggie day care for a while until this guy kept talking to us and we got a bit scared and walked away. i even saw an adorable puggle!!! the graduation party, especially if you ask dan, was probably not particularly exciting, but i love spending time with dan's family. i love how much they love and appreciate him and how much he helps them out with everything. i also just love them! they're funny and fun and easy to be around and they make me feel extremely welcome. the SIMPSONS MOVIE!!! hahaha - that's what the title is about. but anyway, it was decent, funny. but it was fun going with a bunch of people. and my first buffalo wild wings experience wasn't half bad either. even though it was kind of an everyday kind of night, i just felt lucky to have so many great friends to do things like that with - and they're all so funny (i absolutely cannot WAIT to see everyone's halloween costumes!)
sunday - um, hello best food festival of my life. we went to pierogi fest in whiting, IN, and as i said then, and will repeat now, i honestly cannot think of a better food to dedicate an entire festival to. and once again, it was nice to be around dan's family and get to know jim and judy even better. they're so much fun, and i actually really love their kids (even though jimmy CAN be the devil sometimes). even though i think my favorite food of the day was the fudge topped funnel cake, the whole thing was just really fun and special. and i didn't want it to end. which is why i made the perhaps foolish decision to stay at dan's on a sunday night. which is why i ended up waking up at 4:40am and getting to work before 7. oh well - today is going to be a long one - ack! i am going to be so tempted to read harry potter all day! and thoughts of a certain someone i'm sure, will continually be on my brain :) but this is the last week of forced separation - after this, it's all voluntary, baby!
