Mood:
hungryThe weekend was actually fairly relaxing. I didn’t get much accomplished which I am okay with.
Saturday Maria showed up at my place around noon and we headed into Wake Forest for afternoon tea. I love the tea room and I don’t know why I don’t go more often. The have the best chicken salad. After tea we walked around a few shops so Maria could find a card for the wedding she was attending that evening. I love Wake Forest. It is such a cute little town. The used to have a little Irish Store there but it has recently closed and is now a hair solon.
When we were finished shopping I drove Maria back to her house and she took me in to see the new hot tub. I think we are planning on having a girl’s hot tub party this Friday with Champaign and I am to bring the chocolate covered fruit. YUMMM. She and I are also talking about going to see this play called, “Five Women Wearing the Same Dress.” Sounds like fun. Maria mentioned something about if you wear a bride’s maid dress you get in for free but I haven’t seen anything on the website about it.
During an ostentatious wedding reception at a Knoxville, Tennessee, estate, five reluctant, identically clad bridesmaids hide out in an upstairs bedroom, each with her own reason to avoid the proceedings below. They are Frances, a painfully sweet but sheltered fundamentalist; Mindy, the cheerful, wise-cracking lesbian sister of the groom; Georgeanne, whose heartbreak over her own failed marriage triggers outrageous behavior; Meredith, the bride's younger sister whose precocious rebelliousness masks a dark secret; and Trisha, a jaded beauty whose die-hard cynicism about men is called into question when she meets Tripp, a charming bad-boy usher to whom there is more than meets the eye. As the afternoon wears on, these five very different women joyously discover a common bond in this wickedly funny comedy about friendship and love. Sunday was spent cleaning and trying to finish up laundry but I wasn’t at all motivated. I think I took Potter out 5 times just so I would have an excuse not to do my housework. Lennie showed up around 6 or so and we ran to the pet store and then stopped by Shane’s to pick up some ribs for dinner. After dinner we took Potter to the lake and then settled in for the night. I didn’t want to come to work today. I am having a “fat” day. I am all bloated and just feel grumpy. Potter didn’t want me to come to work either. I think he would have been thrilled for me to call in sick and snuggle with him on the floor all day. His fur is so soft I just love cuddling with him. J Well I should probably get some work done. Hope everyone had a great weekend.
