WEEKEND UPDATE
When does the weekend officially begin for you? An old friend of mine claims it begins on Friday morning, and I suppose if you work a 40-hour week between Monday and Thursday and don't have to work on Friday, that'd be true; but still, this friend of mine has long claimed that the weekend officially begins Friday morning (despite the fact that she has always had to work a traditional Monday thru Friday job). Regardless, here's what I did this weekend...
Friday... together with some co-workers, took a fellow co-worker, who is expecting her first baby next week, out to lunch. Stayed at the office till around 8:30 p.m. or so (I have a lot of stuff to do these days), and when I couldn't see straight anymore, went home and did a couple of loads of laundry and some light housekeeping (there's nothing better, in my opinion, then waking up to a clean house on a Saturday morning).
Saturday... went to the gym in the morning, found $20.00 in the parking lot afterwards, went into the office from around 10:30 a.m. till 3:30 p.m., spent $8.00 of the $20.00 at the movie theatre (I finally saw Million Dollar Baby... great flick, by the way), came home for a minute, then went over to Urban Element for dinner and some wireless web surfing. While there, I found someone's purse sitting atop one of the outside tables with no one nearby to claim it. When I brought it inside the restaurant to see if anyone owned it, the lady who said it was hers later stuffed $8.00 into my hand (as a reward) and wouldn't take no for an answer.
Sunday... went to the gym again in the morning, and then to the office from 11:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m., followed by a trip over to Trader Joe's where I bought some food with the money leftover from Saturday. I made it home by around 4:30 p.m., had some delicious Chicken Parmesan that I bought at Trader Joe's, and then just vegged for the rest of the day with my roomie and his girlfriend.
All-in-all, not a bad weekend! Going to the gym first thing in the day really helps to make the rest of my day better, even if it means having to come into the office on a weekend day.
Happy Monday (can you tell I hit the gym again this morning? :-)
