For once, my weekend is going to be relaxing.
Well, kind of.
Today I'm done with work at 1 (yippee!) at which point I'm going to meander toward home, running some errands along the way, so as not to arrive before 2, when Kevin is done with work (he works from home).
We were going to go for a bike ride this afternoon (as an alternative to running, since I seem to have some sort of serious leg injury which I don't want to speak of because I'm in Denial) but it's raining. So who knows what we'll do. Something relaxing. Then tonight we're going out dancing with some friends. Yay!
Tomorrow we're heading out to Six Flags New England to stand in 2-hour lines for 30 second roller coaster rides. But you won't hear me complaining. Roller coasters are some of my favorite things in the world. Also high on my list of favorite things are fried dough and winning stuffed animals in cheesy carnival games. Plus, we got highly discounted admission tickets from AAA, so who cares if we have to stand in line?
Sunday = beach. We don't know where or with whom yet, maybe just the two of us ("we can make it if we try...just the two of us"...*er, sorry*). But it is supposed to be a gorgeous sunny day, and I have trouble spending days like that in the city.
Meanwhile, I'm trying not to think about my sore legs. I'm trying not to think about that job at the University I want so badly next year. I'm trying not to think about some family drama that is being played out concerning the reunion/90th birthday party for my grandma we are all having in Chicago next weekend. I'm trying not to think about having to find an apartment in Minneapolis for the fall when I'm up in Minneapolis the week after next (after said party in Chicago). Because these things stress me out. And Stress kills Fun dead.
And fun will be had this weekend, dangit!
