My Weekend

I don't routinely do this, but here goes. My weekend. (You're thrilled already, aren't you?)

Friday night was actually really great. I enjoyed my class that night a lot.
So why dwell on it? :D

Saturday was a bit different. We woke up late, and I had to rush. NEVER a good thing. We took the Kid to the Great American Meat Out (a vegetarian one day festival thing). We had to do something. It was the same day we would normally take her to a story/craft thing -- Which we aren't doing right now, because Manic runs it. We would have to see her. EWWW!

I had to be to a friend's house by 3pm (and actually made it there early. Yay me!!!). We were going to a different kind of festival, and planned on being there all night.

When we got there, it was very quiet. We found out most people were sleeping (it was about 6pm). We knew they must have exhausted themselves Friday night. I thought that boded well for Saturday night. As the night wore on, I realized there were key people missing. It didn't feel right without them.

This is not to say there weren't any good moments. There were quite a few. But I didn't leave there feeling like I was wrapped in a warm blanket of love. And I usually come away from these things feeling very warm and fuzzy. Faith in humanity renewed, and all that rot.

I did have an excellent time hanging with the friend I rode with. He's one of the few people I would give selflessly to. (Yep, that's right. I generally put myself first. Deal with it.) We make a good team.

We got back to the Knox area about 8am. We crashed at his house. I called Husband around noon to come get me. Sunday was all about recovery. I was aching. Saturday night was chilly, and I was standing almost all night (except for the time I folded over, head on knees, and fell asleep. No one could wake me for a while).

I'm looking forward to this week. It's a slower week (meaning I have two whole nights when nothing is scheduled). Tonight is one of those nights. I can't wait to sit on my ass, veg in front of the TV, and not have to run anywhere.
Ah yes, peaceful laziness - here I come.
