Quickly now

Just a quick post before life gets crazy again.  I worked 32 hours in the last three days, and let me tell you, felt like I worked 32 hours in the last three days until about 7 tonight.  I woke up sore, I woke up exhausted.  The only cure was to lay in bed, with a equally exhausted (I'm not sure why) puppy cuddling with my feet, and watch a marathon of Buffy.  Thank you Logo network. All day Buffy marathon, of the top shows, voted by the gay and lesbian community.  The number 1 episode was, of course, the musical episode.  Gotta love those voters. 

Once my synovial fluid settled around my knees, I showered and ate something, but found myself back in bed, continuing the marathon.  No, today was not a successful day. I accomplished nothing except showcasing my Buffy quote skills.  But, days like today are a must in my life.  I believe in having days where you don't shower until you can't take it anymore. I believe in days where the blinds are down and you're still in your pjs.  I believe in days where you're as lazy as a black lab.  I believe in days where you acknowledge that you worked 16.5 hours yesterday, and accept that today you will work none. 

Tomorrow, I'll vaccum.  I'll garden.  I'll run again (like I did on Thursday, yep, that's two days of running. I'm a runner now. Boo-yah). I'll engage my puppy both physically and intellectually.  I'll shower early, and hell maybe do some deep conditioning and exfoliating. I'll cross things off lists and I'll feel busy. 

We balance, that's what we have to do.  For every 16.5 hour day with old women who are throwing things at you and old men who are grabbing your, well, whatever they can get their hands on,  there must be a Buffy marathon day.


And, quickly, a couple of great thigns:

1.  Talking to Katie and Theresa all in one evening.  It happened last week too.  Now, if I had some Liz in there too, I'd be set.  Seriously, I go from no girl talk to the best girl talk. 

2. Presenting, our wedding website!  I've been working on it since he put a ring on it, and we're finally getting the word out.  I love, love, love the site now.  Thanks Blogger for finally updating your design template!  Slackers.

3. Seattle.  We're going on Wednesday for 11 days, and hopefully I'll get my fix.  We're staying overnight in Downtown for 2 nights and are planning a Tom Douglas crawl.  You know, like a bar crawl, except way less (sorry babe) liquor and more good food.  Let me tell you, we're hittin up Serious Pie, Dahlia Lounge (for brunch), AND of course, Lola for breakfast on Sunday.  Plus, I'm hoping for an engagement dinner with my family on Tuesday at Palace Kitchen.  Sorry Etta's! 

4.  More Seattle.  I just want to say that I can't wait to walk on the waterfront, sit and look at the water at the Sculpture Park, and stroll through Pike Place, picking out flowers to by, Chukar Cherries, seafood, bread, and those mini-doughnuts.  Yes, I'm going to ask them if they do weddings.  You people don't even know how good those mini-doughnuts are.  Slackers. 

5.  Wedding stuff.  K and I are going to meet with the caterer next week (Tom Douglas catering, DUH), and check out the Hotel Andra and Palace Ballroom for our reception. I think we both have our little hearts set on Palace, but we're open to anything.  Actually, we're only open to Tom Douglas. 

Expect one more post before the trip!
