weekend’s in one day
miles to go before I sleep
stress, you can suck it.

emergency tuesday love list: triage edition
Okay, that was an overdramatic title.
I’m not bleeding, nor overtly injured. And there’s no actual emergency except a bad mood that is making me scowl and forming a giant wrinkle up between my eyes. I’m not feeling terribly well, and things and stuff are profoundly not going how I wish they were at the moment… thus I’m doing the whole POOR ME thing in my head.
Which ain’t pretty. Nor is that giant wrinkle.
SO!
Something else is called for, I think.
I need to remember things that are awesome and lovable and wicked and cool and not self-indulgently meh (like me).
But I’m going to rely on you to help me do it, just this once.
So.
What’s good out there? Do tell.
And what might I love?
i love my girls!

Last night, Cat, Ash and I went out to celebrate Ashleigh turning the ripe old age of 28.
I know.
SHE’S A BABY.
First, we headed out for tapas, which is pretty much the perfect way to eat from my perspective.
See, I’m easily bored when it comes to food, and I always have trouble planning meals ahead because I love to go to the store to see what’s fresh… and what I might want to eat RIGHT THEN.
(I know… it will all change when I have kids. But kids are WORTH IT.)
Not to mention that, since I really do like everything, I find it hard to choose JUST ONE THING.
But if I can choose what to eat but not have to choose just one thing?
I LIKE IT!
Here are the dungeness crab risotto fritters and the beef steak lasagna we tried last night, among other treats:


The restaurant had a great vibe, too…


Ash, in all her aged glory.
(Sorry about the blur… flash in restaurants might make people drop their forks!)
From there, we headed out to a patio to eat cheesecake and chocolate lava cake. Mmmm!

I LOVE PATIOS!
Seriously, nothing better than good friends, good food, and summertime.
Oh, and new sunglasses:

Hope your weekend is going beautifully!
