It’s that time again!
What time?
Time for the weekend in review, duh.
Have you ever done a weekend in review before?
Well, no, but it seemed like a good idea, so I’m going to.
Get on with it, then.
Fine. Saturday, I decided to get my nifty thrifty finds on at our local Urban Mining. The best part was, sharing the afternoon with my gal pal @hrdlyclvr. (Follow her on Twitter! She’s actually quite clever.) I was looking for a coffee table. While I didn’t find that, I found some other fun items.
Looking for a quirky new chandelier? How ’bout this hatty one.
I really need an elephant with his party hat on.
A stack of whimsical fabric covered stools? Slightly Pinteresty, but too adorable not to share.
@Hrdlyclvr has a fancy music degree. (She’s a profesh musician, yo.) So, I think she was very qualified to pose for this picture.
I sent a text to Mr. Q, asking if he thought our parties would be enhanced if we owned this fun and oh so safe backyard game. Yeah, not so much…
And finally, I couldn’t resist picking up these kitschy cocktail trays. I’m dreaming up a classic cocktail soiree just to use them…
After urban mining, grocery shopping and miscellaneous errands, Mr. Quirky and I met some friends out to watch football. Correction: so they could watch football an I could have vodka sodas.
It got a little heated during the Lions v. Saints games. We let two rivaling fans sit next to each other.
We were later joined by a friend who was on a first date and wanted to bring her new man around to meet the gang. They stuck around for a drink.
When they got up to leave, he shook everyone’s hand and said it was nice to meet us. What a nice thing to do, right?
So what do I say in response to his polite salutation?
“Good luck!”
REALLY? Good luck? Ugh… So awkward. Good luck, I hope it lasts? Good luck, tonight? Good luck with your life, because I’ll probably never see you again?
Sometimes I wonder why anyone lets me out in public.
Luckily Mr. Quirky is used to my weirdness.
Today (Sunday), I got some stuff done around the house, discovered where all my missing socks were — in a load of laundry I apparently left in the dryer, took Ms. Gertie on a mega walk, clipped recipes from Cooking Light and in general got my Sunday on.
Is that all? I was kind of expecting a bit more the way you set this post up.
Yeah, well, well…. good luck.
