week in review

hey y'all!! did ya miss me? :)
i've been pretty sick lately and busy with work, etc. so really this was the first chance i got to blog. i figured i'd go ahead and just recap what's been going on with me with bullets! bullets are my friend today!!

• the lovely alice came for a visit y'all! and we had such a great time! i've known her since my days workin' at an airline, and it was so nice to have such a sweet guest! we went to taco mac after she landed, and i introduced her to purple haze!! y'all abita purple haze is the jam! (i'm partial to it because it is a louisiana beer) we also went to the sweetwater brewery - unfortunately, there was not a tour due to some construction they were doing, but we got to taste all the beers! hb & i went before with jess & b, but this time we got to try the new beer called happy ending. it was pretty tasty. basically you buy a pint glass that has 8 tickets for $8, and then you are SUPPOSED to get half a pint, but they give you much more than that. so, you get 8 beers for $8, and you drink it in the course of 2hrs. needless to say, i needed the food after that so we met up with rich at the vortex! tater tots there are great, so if you are ever in atl, and you go to the vortex, get them!!! the rest of the weekend was nice and relaxing, watching tv, playing wii fit, going to the movies. hb & i were so happy to have alice here! thanks for the nice gifts alice!! we are enjoying the chocolates and candle!!
• hb & i went to a superbowl party in greenville, sc and we were originally planning on going to charleston the next day, but i got so sick with a sore throat and just bad cold symptoms in general that we decided to nix it! BUT we will get out to charleston soon! i'm really wanting to go try the low country grub and tour the historical buildings :)
• for some reason, i'm extremely unmotivated here at work, and i don't know how to get out of this funk. i am really over my coworkers i think because they are lazy, and i have to keep telling them to do the same thing over and over. on the bright side, i guess this will prepare me for when i am a mother, and i have to tell my child to do something over and over. however, i would like to believe that my child will only have to be told once :) i really hope that's not wishful thinking!!!
• so far, my feb. has been kind of yucky with me being sick and stressed at work, but next week my good friend bee comes to visit us, and we can't wait to see him!!! i'm looking forward to presidents day (i love having a monday off!), and then seeing my friend jl the following saturday! he's here on biz, and also training for the cherry blossom 10 miler, so we are all probably gonna go for a run!

that's my week in review! i can't wait for the weekend - only 4 more hours to go :) hb & i will be at ga tech this weekend watching the yellow jackets play the terps! let's hope this game goes much better than the duke game! if maryland does not play well, hb & i are gonna have to refrain from going to another game!
