weekend was so.much.fun! naturally. mwahahahaha.
Friday - James' flight to Minne was delayed, of course. but it was ok, as it bought me some time to try to run. i say try because it was a whole lotta effort - struggling effort - and just a little bit of accomplishment. not sure if it was the heat (it was pretty humid), the fact that i was pooped because i wasn't sleeping last week, or because i just wanted to hurry up and get that plane landed... but it was a miserable run. BUT a completed one, and in the end that's what matters. gutted it out (and therefore took the next three days off of running, completely. shame on me!!). I don't think we did anything that night...
saturday. SCHERER/LAU wedding!! woooop! great time. Happy Blissful Wedding to Chandra and David. it was great to see a handful of LHS classmates, too - everyone looked great and seemed to be doing quite well. go panthers. ha. old habits die hard...obvi, my school spirit. a few people asked if we were going to ship out the school song or and stunts or cheers, but we managed to keep things under control for the whole night. thankfully. i think james would have ditched me, for sure. something cool that Chan's dad did for the guests was something i'd highly recommend: as a cigar aficionado, dear Grant Scherer had one of his friends/cigar shoppe owners come to the reception and have a "cigar bar" set up where guests could buy a cigar or two to enjoy. what a stellar move! James and I (ermm, mostly Jimmyboy) were pretty excited about this and hopped on board. it was such a gorgeous night, we just hung out on the back veranda puffing away (sounds so gross!) and overlooking the gorgeous golf course view, listening to the thudding bass of Sir Mix A Lot and Rihanna jamming on the dance floor. it was a great and unique touch. i'll try to remember to address more of those in a later post. i want to include some pics of the night and not have too long of post today. saturday memories...
me and my James
the lovely chandra and yours truly
trying out some new dance moves, courtesy of about 3 glasses of the bubbly! no regrets.
kelly, chandra-bride, me, heidi, katie, abby... can i get a GO PANTHERS!
(seriously.)
such a great time - thank you to the hot, new Mr. and Mrs. David Lau. much love and happiness and please make many cheerleader babies.
now, a little game of "Are you SERIOUS!?"
i wish, WISH that my pictures would have turned out more clearly, however these will have to do... as i was returning to work after a nice little stroll (ooops, fell into the pedi chair at the salon! someone has pretty piggies now!) through downtown, i saw the coif of a man who missed the casting call for the new season of Jersey Shore... someone, please help with this head of awfulness....
this is RIGHT outside the men's salon "Winston's" in Macy's - I am so shocked one of the stylists didn't tackle him and tame this disaster.
unfortunately this blurry mop didn't turn out as i had hoped. i had to take it on the go, however, as the blinging wings of his shirt front and bedazzled, overpriced hideous denim bottoms were blinding if one stopped to gaze (in embarrassment for him, NOT adoration!). his hair was POOFED all the way around his face - it was almost as if he had used some specially formed "BUMP IT" on his head to provide endless volume to this bangs/side bangs/not sure what that hair is called?!
backside...just before he stepped into the skyway, which would in fact make his derrière bling more loudly than the disco ball in Studio 54.
i also must point out that Minne-Guido was approximately 5 feet 4 inches short. he was just trying so hard to be cool and get the ladeeez attention. actually, he was successful. the pack of gals i passed to get close enough to go paparazzi on this specimen was stifling their giggles and whispers - it was a fun moment shared by strangers, all of us coming together to raise an eyebrow and crinkle our noses as this bro-no-no strutted by.... ohhh, such a valiant effort... who dates these douches dudes, anyway? i mean...? anyone?
ok so that was a little on the not-so-nice side, but I just can't...ok, don't want to....help myself! Is he SERIOUS?? I think so. SERIOUSLY wayyyyy off base here. someone help him. please. 1-2-3 not it!
so, that's my last couple of days. it's been an interesting week, over all, so i am kind of looking forward to the next few days. farmer's market is tomorrow, then friday and...voila! it's the weekend again! plans...might be heading down to the Schell's Brewery in New Ulm, Mn... mmmmm!!!!
keep your eyes peeled for more contestants for future rounds of "Are you SERIOUS?!" I know i will!
creep on!
