(no subject)
I've been working nonstop since I came back from my Ohio trip a few weeks ago, which I guess is okay, but I would like some time to, you know, do Rachel-y things as well. And I can now! At least until Thursday when I have to work again. The stylists I work with, including the owner, all flew out for a Paul Mitchell convention in Las Vegas. So I now have a surprising (but non unwelcome) mini vacation! So what have I been doing with it? Nothing! LOL, okay, not really....
Nick's parents drove out to visit us for a few days from the middle of last week and left yesterday. Unfortunately, I had to work most of the time they were visiting and could only really see them in the evenings. But we had lunch together on Friday. And Friday night, after work we picked up lunch meat and fruit and such and wandered up to Hopkins to see the last film in their summer movie series- Ghostbusters- and had ourselves a nice little picnic and a movie!
Saturday, we went to the Book Thing and the farmer's market. We also took a road trip to check out random small towns along the western edge of the Chesapeake Bay and ate some yummy seafood on a restaurant on a pier and wandered around. It was nice and relaxing. We were going to go to the eastern shore, but the Bay Bridge (the ONLY convenient way to get to the eastern shore) had a 10 mile delay- yikes!
So I do have time off this week until Thursday when I have to go back to work- but I'm at work at this moment doing some random crap for the owner. Such as doing the towels/laundry (because mildewy towels are uncool), watering the plants, and replugging in the computer and such (because BGE had a scheduled power outage on Sunday and the calls for here are forwarded to our other salon location so they can make appointments for us while we're closed but this computer needs to be on and functioning for them to have the capability to make the appts)
What to do with the next few days I have off? I might play softball tonight, go to D.C. tomorrow, and sew Katie's bridal shower gift. One thing is for certain- there is eggplant parmesan in my future! ;-)
Well.... I'm gonna check the towels and go back home and whip out the old sewing machine. Peace out, yo.
