Over the Weekend I Learned...

-That a plan for a weekend away in Newport can quickly turn into a weekend home alone when your husband is an on-call wild land firefighter

-That 28 (ok, ok practically 29) doesn't make you too old for a slumber party with the girls...
but it does make you too old to fall down in the street (in front of roughly 150 people) and scrape your knee, foot and elbow
(which I did)

-That pedi-cabs are a great mode of transport 

-That summer in the Pacific Northwest really is almost perfect 

-That a bar in a mall is not as weird as I thought it would be 

-That this (very short) book is proving impossible to finish...
but that I've got to get it done by Wednesday in time to see the movie! 
 
-That the Brewer's Festival is just as fun as I remembered it being...
(and is great for people watching!)

-That huckleberry beer is not as delicious as it sounds...
but that pineapple vodka with jalapeno sweet and sour mix is even more delicious than you would think 

-That it's perfectly acceptable to stay in PJs until 3:00 pm

-That this show really is as good as everyone says...
(and may cause people to stay in their PJs until 3:00 pm) 
and that this show gets worse every week

-That I still really don't know how to work the coffee maker without Ryan here to operate it for me...
but luckily there are way too many coffee shops in Portland

-That this place rivals my favorite spot for happy hour in town...
and I need to get back there asap 

-That three-day weekends are great, but four-day weekends are wonderful

-That dinners at home with family are just as good as any fancy meal out
(or even better)

-That I really miss my honey when he's gone...
but that I have the best girlfriends and family to spend time with...
and I am truly lucky


Only four more days until next weekend :)
Really hoping my honey is home!
