I have been sick for like a full 7 days. I am more than DONE with this cold! It started out with my throat. I sounded like a man for a good 5 days. To the point that I was hesitant to make phone calls in fear of being confused for a man. My throat has gone back to normal.. but now I've got an uncontrollable cough and excessive amount of flem. Sexy, I know. GO AWAY COLD. Your putting a damper on my week!
This past weekend, we went out to dinner and to a concert with our friends Kim and Jason. The concert was Will Hoge and it was very good! It was at a local venue in Austin (Stubbs). Other than my feet hurting from standing for so many hours, I have no complaints about the evening. It was a lot of fun!
This week has been pretty low key. I've just been working and laying low.. trying to get better! I've been working a little more than usual this week.. so this has been the one morning that I've had a sec to sit down and blog!
We've got a packed weekend ahead of us. Some friends of ours that we actually met on our honeymoon are coming into town to visit some family. So we're getting together with them tonight for dinner. And then hopefully again on Sunday for lunch before they go. We're also planning a day trip to McKinney, TX on Saturday to explore a little bit of and finish up some last minute Christmas shopping!
We'll be headed to NC next Friday to celebrate an early Christmas with our families.. so Im in a little bit of a crunch to finish buying last minute things! Luckily we've already sent the bulk of our stuff out via Fed Ex. But I guess I'll be cramming a few last minute things in my suitcase! :)
As a side note- our niece went to see Santa this week! I was talking to my mom about it and she and I got into a discussion about our "santa" experiences as kids. Apparently, I wanted nothing to do with the jolly old man. I guess this explains the fact that we have no "sitting on santa's lap" photos anywhere. And to make matters worse (and more funny), my mom informs me that we would send down our wish list as paper airplanes. Santa was on a lower level that was visible from an upper story.. therefore, we would stand up top and fly them down. Is THIS why I didn't get that barbie dream house?! SANTA NEVER GOT MY LIST!
Anyway, that's it for now. I need to run and get ready for work! And finish some last minute laundry that I've been putting off all week.
Happy Friday everyone!
