Weekend Recap

I had such an amazing weekend, and I have to say that I don't think I could have let myself have this much fun 6 months ago. I would often talk myself out of doing things because I was depressed or just felt like others would be judging me (even when I knew they wouldn't be).

This weekend I had two such events that, in the past, I would have easily convinced myself that staying at home and couching with the TV was the better option. I'm SO glad I didn't. Friday night, we drove over 2 hours each way to see Weezer at a casino in southern Indiana. I have loved Weezer since they debuted the "blue" album in 1994 (hello, this makes me feel old). Anyway, I've never had the chance to see them. It was a fantastic show. The crowd was really cool. Everyone was super nice (is this a southern thing?). My only complaint was the heat. It was stifling, and I was sweating in places I didn't know I could sweat. We even got some unintentional exercise searching for our car in the wrong garage for 45 minutes. Hah!

Saturday was the wedding of a good friend/coworker. Now, I don't know that I would have talked myself out of something this important in the past. However, I would have gone and probably not danced or anything and maybe just talked to the people around me at most. Let's face it-I'm always social, but I was quite the social butterfly Saturday night. I even got up and shook my booty a couple of times. Come on, how could I not when they play AC/DC and Journey?

Posting a couple of snapshots, but I can't wait to see the pro pictures. They had a photo booth, and there was MUCH hilarity in that. That healthy train contest I mentioned in an earlier post? The photographers for that were the wedding photographers last night. Bobbi and Mike if you'd like to view the amazingness that is their blog. I know the secret to their amazing pictures now. It's all in the personality. They're so much fun to be around, how can you not smile?

My attempt at a quick full-length shot to get the whole outfit.


Me and my cute husband!

I then wrapped up the weekend with the season 3 premiere of True Blood. Yes, I am a True Blood junkie. It was a fabulous premiere too!

Now, it's back to the grind. My weekend was so amazing that I didn't want it to end. *sigh*

  3. Hello weight Loss / True Blood friend...found your blog , so I stopped by to say Hi. Team Eric or Team Bill? I fell in love with Eric in the books, but Vampire Bill does something to me when he drawls "Sookie"

  4. Hey, I'm glad you found me! I'll have to get caught up on your blog soon! I can't pick a team-they're both so entertaining. I love the supporting cast more than anything. I got a kick out of Sookie mocking Bill's "Sookeh" this week. :)
