a double weekend update because i'm a slacker.

by Jenn on January 25, 2010

Let’s rewind a bit here and take a look at the weekend before this weekend. You know, the one where awesome things happened and I just skipped over all of them entirely because I suck.

Two Weekends Ago Recap

  • Ashley came to visit and we said goodbye to Derek. There might have been tears and there was definitely some McDonalds breakfast sandwiches (Note to self: when you want a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, don’t forget to say WITH EGG)
  • My favorite Chicago blogger ladies all got together for a Glee party at Erin’s house and to record the epic Love Harder video for Brandy
  • Ashley and I spent Sunday brunching with Jamie and being touristy in the city

This Weekend Update

  • On Thursday I had a date. And it was great. And I would say more but he reads this so we’ll leave it at that.
  • On Friday I had dinner with the ex-boyfriend, which could have gone disasterously wrong but ended up okay. And we saw In The Heights which was absolutely incredible.
  • On Saturday this kid took me to the Boston Wine Expo. And it was fun. And we dressed up like idiots, courtesy of The Second Glass

  • Sunday was spent brunching and getting some work done (while watching an exorbitant amount of Ally McBeal. Robert Downey Jr? Call me. Seriously.) and I even made my dad a blog. Yep, my dad is a blogger. Awesome.

Now it’s time to get serious and start class. Here we go.

Looks like you had two awesome weekends. And yay for dates that go great!
P.S. I would love you forever if you let me know which font it is you are using in your pictures! It’s so cute!

Haha it’s called Joyful Juliana I think — I use it on picnik.com for photo edits since I don’t have photoshop.

Thanks! I don’t have a premium account at Picnik so I cannot use it there but I did find the font online so I downloaded it to install on my laptop (I use Photoshop Elements and Picasa (free) for photo editing).

Isn’t it though? A little weird because now he knows about this one presumably and that I have internet friends that keep saying hi but that’s okay. Plus I got to design it which was fun (we have matching themes!)

And my dad doesn’t even know what a blog is!

My dad texted me “how do I start a blog on google or whatever?” haha so he didn’t really know either! I prettied it up for him :)

And wine tastings are SO much fun!

when you want a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, don’t forget to say WITH EGG

True story. I’ve been burned by this myself before, and it sucks. Sausage McMuffin sans egg is terrible.

I’m so glad that the Sausage McMuffin comes without an egg now. I got so sick of having to say NO EGG when I ordered it. Now, the rest of humanity has to suffer…and I’m really ok with that.

Also, come back! Let’s watch Glee and talk about shower pee again. Seriously.

I love me some sausage McMuffin with egg. It’s the one thing I look forward to whenever I have an early morning flight. For some reason, I only eat McDonald’s in airports . . . I should remedy that immediately.

I apparently only eat it when I’m hungover! Which I think is the best time to eat it ever…

Why would you ever eat an Egg McMuffin when you could eat a McGriddle? I’m judging you so hard.

Awww Chicago! I miss it. So much fun!!

That wine picture is all sorts of HILARIOUS. Holy crap. We’re dressing up like that next time we hang out (and you better believe there will be a next time) and going out in public in it. With those signs.

SO cute that your dad has a blog now!!
