Mocha Java Monday...
Friday night I'm not exactly sure what happened lol. I was sitting at home minding my own business, watching my dvr and sipping a few drinks. I had made myself a nice dinner and decided to just stay in... well, then Crystal texts me at like 11:30 or so and convinces me to go to c-bar. She pulls up out back and gets me and away we go. I remember getting there and having a couple drinks... and then Brian showed up to come get me at like 1:30 and instead Crystal and I ordered more drinks. I remember nothing after that. lol
It's a blur of Crystal's red lipstick, hugging people, laughing my ass off, making Brian walk me home even though he rode his bike and waking up to read a few hilarious strings of text messages and facebook updates that I have no recollection of making.
Saturday, I had to get up for our Saturday morning group ride with the metro parks haha. Nothing like a 13 mile bike ride in the sun to aggravate a hangover.
After that, we went for a walk with Eddy and found some lunch. Ended up at Smokin BBQ for some tasty ribs.
Then we went on a family bike cruise.
People tell me they think the bike path is boring... they must not be paying attention.
We also went to a cute bike shop and a bookstore Saturday.
I bought a copy of I Am America and So Can You, and it's been the best thing I've read in a long time. I can't stop laughing while reading it. It's great.
Sunday, we did up the morning right with a visit to PRESS. My favorite place ever.
I swear, there's no better coffee on earth. I recently read a review on Yelp stating that Dayton doesn't even deserve PRESS because it's THAT good. I honestly agree. Other than the fact that I need it to live.
The french press ALL of their coffee... or you can get a pour-over. And the coffee... OH the coffee... it's SO good. They're so passionate and they strive for perfection.
Yesterday, I spent most of the day making a cake you'll get to see later and then we went on a 40 mile bike ride to Franklin and back!
It was amazing. I've never felt so alive. The path was amazing. We saw cranes, a fox, some adorable cats hiding in the tall grass, a lot of dog walkers, and we even watched a pelican catching and eating fish in the river!! It was amazing. The ride was great and we talked the entire time. It was just the two of us and we did each 20 mile leg straight through without stopping. We snacked on pepperoni, grapes, bananas and energy gel cubes.
After a long weekend, it was great to snuggle up for bed with my babies.
Also, I have a hickey on my neck. As a 27 year old woman who has been married almost 7 years... should I be embarrassed or proud?? lol
