Stuck in a Furrow

Phew...another busy weekend is over and only 5 days till the next long weekend. Yippee! This weekend was a crazy busy one...let me fill you in, just in case you cared!

I Blew off work on Friday night to hang out at the mall with some co-workers. Cara needed new frames and I tagged along. It almost made me wish that I needed a new pair of glasses because there were so many fun frames to try on. There are also a LOT of ugly/expensive frames.

Saturday I had to work EXTRA hard because I skipped on Friday. I got a good 7 hours of typing in and I am still behind. Boo to that. Maybe I'll get caught up this week. Maybe not.

Satuday night I hung out with the 'rents' and some family for my Grandpa's 66th b-day. There was chicken (good), cake (good) and coffee (ok). I can't really complain though as it was a free meal. I do enjoy free....


Today was the CIBC Run for the Cure down at Southcentre Mall. It was at the ungodly hour of 9am so Carmen and I headed to the train (and a pitstop at Starbucks) just after 7am! No...I didn't run but we did do the 5k walk at a fairly brisk pace and under 1 hour. In the rain. But, it was a blast and I think I might attempt to run it next year. I know, I know, such a lofty goal. There were 10 of us walking in memory of Christy, who passed away in May. It was rainy and cold and we all looked like drowned rats when we crossed the finish line but it was cool to see how excited people were as we walked through their neighbourhoods and how in to it a lot of particpates were. There is something about a man in a pink tutu that will always make me laugh! Then we headed to Milestones for some uber yummy brunch and headed home.

I spent the rest of the day sleeping, cleaning my pathetically messy apartment and going grocery shopping. The excitement was unending!

So that was my weekend. Not too exciting but busy nonetheless.
