Oh Good Grief!

Has it really been almost a week since my last post? Is my life really that exciting that I can't possibly find time to get on the computer to write a little something about my comings and goings? Well, clearly the answer is yes! So what have I been doing for the past week???

On Friday of last week I left work and drove to Chicago to see my favorite partner in crime, Alica. that night was laid low and stayed indoors. We ordered in pizza and breadsticks (you know, cause it is important to make sure we get enough carbs) and we watched the movie Food, Inc. It was a good documentary on the food industry in the US, but boy does it make you not want to eat anything ever again. Thankfully I got over that pretty quickly :)

On Saturday we did some shopping in the afternoon, I made us a yummy and very healthy dinner and then we got ready for what was to be the highlight of the weekend. We had tickets to see Kid Sister perform with a meet-and-greet afterward. (To find out more about her click here.) She was slated to take the stage at midnight and around 12:30am she finally came out to entertain. But then, after 1.5 songs the show was over. Apparently it wasn't a full concert, but rather more of an "appearance by" sort of thing. We did still meet her and have our picture taken with her, which at some point when I get a new computer I will be able to put pictures back on this blog. And though we were disappointed, we didn't let it stop us from enjoying the nightlife Chicago has to offer. We enjoyed it so much that we didn't get home and go to bed until after 5am!!!

On Sunday we hung out at Alica's condo, watching TV and listening to music before I hit the road to drive back up to Wisconsin. All-in-all it was a very, very fun weekend!

Monday was a productive day at work. I was in my groove and got a lot accomplished. After work I cleaned my room at Chris' place and packed up some of my belongings. Since I will be leaving in both Baraboo and Madison for the time being I wanted to have things in both locations so I don't have to pack so much and live out of suitcases all the time. So, Monday night I took care of all that and am feeling more settled in Madison. However, I did not realize how sad I would be to not be with Chris. I try to be so planful and yet somehow something still slips through my thinking cap :)

As for yesterday, a super fantastic day at work. I was in Madison all day for various meetings and really felt on top of my game. In addition, I have always felt so at home in Madison (likely due to the 9 years of living there) and really enjoyed being back in my element, so to speak.

As always, thanks for reading and I promise to try and get better with keeping up with this. hey, maybe after the Olympics are over I won't be up so late trying to see who won what medal and I can actually get more things done!!
