Rain Rain Go Away

Ok ok so I haven't been the most timely with my posts.  But here's a little weekend recap.

My father in law, step mother in law and brother in law came up for the weekend.  They hadn't been up in a while so we were pretty stoked for their visit.  The men had planned a canoeing/fishing trip for Saturday that I was gonna join them on, that was kinda the main focus of the weekend.  Obviously I had one too many beverages on Friday, which made getting up on Saturday a little bit of a chore.  But we hit the road around 8.  It rained for about 2/3 of the trip (we were on the river from 10-4), I didn't catch any fish (I stopped giving a shit after a little while) and my father in law saw me peeing on a little rock island in the middle of the river (I'm talkin full eye contact, aw fuck he just saw me).  But, at the end of the trip the hubs told me he was proud of me for not bitching being such a good sport and that trumped the fact that I was cold, wet (not in a good way) and just a little bit closer with my father in law.

My parents came over for dinner and drinks on Saturday evening.  This sober sister watched the dads get wrecked on some bourbon and sat there watching them talk about how much they loved each other.  It was pretty awesome.  Old men for the win.  It was a quality weekend surrounded by family and friends.

On Sunday I headed out for my third ever blind date.  Ok ok, blind date sounds creepy, but I went to meet a blog reader/instagram follower that happens to live close by.  We had been emailing for a while and finally got some plans in place to grab lunch and a beer at this cute little restaurant where the waiter says "groovy" a lot.  I'll admit, blind date track record is pretty spotless, I was 2/2 going into this one  and kept hoping that a third wouldn't be pushing my luck.  Well, it wasn't, we had a delicious lunch, a delicious beer and then we sat and shared some great conversation for abouuuut 3 hours.  The place was totally empty so we weren't holding anyone up or being a waste of space.  While we were sitting, these random little girls walked up and gave us bracelets they had made.  It was pretty adorable and cough cough, generous.  I'll go ahead and say the bracelets are a reward for neither of us shanking the other on this epic blind date.  I love meeting people that have a similar outlook on life, don't get offended easily and enjoy laughing as much as I do.  Can't wait to have another 3 hour lunch!

In other news, I haven't been to the gym in who knows how long.  I'm just not feeling it!  I don't know why, I'm exhausted in the mornings (I have been staying up extra late to do work) and I value my sleep more than normal.  Here's hoping I have better gym news to report the next time I write, because right now I've got absolutely nothing.  I did plan some tasty meals for lunches this week, so that's good, because if it was unhealthy I wouldn't be doing a damn thing to work it off.

It's raining today and rain makes me wanna throat punch people.  Come back sunshine, I feel less murderous when you're around!
