Something besides weddings

Hey, peepsicles! It has occurred to me that most of my posts involve weddings. Contrary to appearances, I do other things in my life than plan, decorate, and strawboss weddings. Like…write papers. And prepare for finals. Oh wait, I’ve written about that before, too! Dang. Hmm. Are there any original topics for me to cover? How about…good times with friends. I have LOTS of those. (Oftentimes at weddings or after finals.)

This weekend I was able to spend some really lovely quality time with my boyfriend. I was babysitting my adorable nieces (Smartipants, Dancrgirl, and Fro-baby) and he came down and made lunch for us all because I couldn’t figure out anything to cook. Yay for dating a man who loves to cook! We also went to the park and the library, cuddled on the couch, and watched the super cute movie “Julie & Julia” together. It was nothing crazy or earthshaking, just a chance to be together on a perfect early autumn day.

On other topics, this week I have two shindigs to attend. One is a pizza party for Labor Day with my branchy peeps, and the other is the Greek festival with more of the same awesome people. I am super stoked for Greek food (gyros, flaming cheese, and pastries so good they make you weak in the knees!) and also for the good times that will no doubt be happening. Life is good.
