While I'd love to report that we had a great Memorial Day Weekend out on the river or a lake, that's just not the case! :) It was actually just a lazy weekend, with Monday added into the mix as well, which is totally fine by me!!
Friday after Lake & I got home from work we went to Espana, it's a new tapas bar off of Hausman & I-10, anyway, we met up with my department chair, Anabelle, & some of her friends. It was fun & the food was good! We left there around 6:30 & went to the movies to see Angels and Demons. It was good, long, but good. I personally liked DaVinci Code better, but it's still a good movie. After the movie it was time for bed!
Saturday we woke up bright & early to attend our very 1st day of half-marathon/marathon training. Lake is running the full & I am doing the half in November. Anyway, we had a time trial & I was super nervous about it, I guess it was because I was going to be running against other people, not like it's a race or anything, but still. So the half-ers ran 2 miles & the full-ers ran 3 miles. I did OK, nothing really to brag about, I'm hoping to improve & get myself in the group above me! The run was down hill the 1st half & up hill the 2nd, geee, thanks! Lake did good as well, once we were done I realized that my nervousness was really for nothing. OH well! :) After running, we ruined it all by eating breakfast at Panera, yum-o! After cleaning up I went to the mall to get my hair cut, but couldn't get an appointment till Monday, so I went back home & took a nap & watched TV. Lake was hanging with Mark all day, so I took over sushi for Kathleen & I to have, I love SUSHI ZUSHI! I have tried other places here in SA & they are good, but the Zush is just really convenient!
Sunday, I did absolutely NOTHING! Really I have nothing to type, becuase I did nothing!
Monday, we got up early, ran our required amount of running for the day, then I went & got a hair cut & a pedicure. I didn't really do anything different with my hair, just cleaned it up a bit, it was starting to look like a mop, so it needed to be cut! After that Lake & I went to lunch at SoLuna & then went down to the new part of the RiverWalk, which is really really pretty. It was soooo hot though!!! Last night I just made dinner & Lake cleaned the leather in my car, after that we just watched TV, last night it was The Bachlorette, Jon & Kate Plus 8, & The Hills. That was it, in the middle of the night though, we had HUGE thunderstorms pass thru our area, the lightning & thunder were crazy, kept me up for awhile....grrrrr!
Guess that's the weekend wrap up! I'm super pumped about next weekend. I'm driving down to the valley on Friday during the day, Lake can't come with :( which I'm sad about, but I understand work needs him. So Friday night I am co-hosting a baby shower for Monica in McAllen, Saturday night I'm going to my dad's aunt & uncle's 50th Anniversary Party in Mission, then out for Cristina's 27th b-day. And on Sunday I'm co-hosting a baby shower for my sister in law Leah in McAllen, WOAH, it's going to be a crazy weekend, but really fun! :)
