Where do I even start!?
I should save writing about last weekend until a time when I'm not quite as tired and can do some justice to it. In short, I headed to Vancouver to catch up with some girlfriends from Joints in Motion and it was exactly what I needed, emotionally and physically.
This weekend was filled with work, as per usual, but I attended a lovely house warming party last night then was lucky enough to tag along to a show with some good friends. I have seen Kathryn Calder perform with both Immaculate Machine and New Pornographers in the past, but forgot how I absolutely adore her voice. Such a treat. Then after a VERY quiet day at work today I saw The Muppets - FANTASTIC movie. I was laughing and smiling through the entire film. I will definitely be watching it again.
I pushed my body a little much yesterday what with working 9 hours, then the party and then going out to a show, putting me on my feet for nearly 15 hours with minor breaks in between, but it was worth it seeing a few faces that I hadn't seen in too long. One of my biggest hurdles is sometimes pushing myself to do those little extra things - I always fear how much I'm going to pay for it physically the following day. But the fun and joy that I always experience overrides that. I just need to sometimes remind myself of that fact when I'm hesitating committing to something social.
