this and that


having a normal 2 day weekend
 is
 exhausting
 i have to cram
so much
 into it
 look at that nice bench
we had no time
to sit on it
during our hour long walk
 in
 riverside park
on
 saturday
 before the walk
 i had to do errands
 after
the walk
 all i wanted to do
 was
sit on the couch
 with
toonman
 while
he
 flipped
back forth
 between
 golf
and
college football

 sunday morning
 i slept in
 again

 i woke
from
 a really weird dream
 pieces of which
 i can still
hours later
i recall
 what woke me
 was
 that my iPhone
 had turned into an iPad
 and
everything
on it
 was
 in arabic

 i really
 needed
 to be able to use my address book
  since
it wasnt in english
i was getting very upset
a stranger
 a woman
 stopped
 took it from me
shaking
 she said
if you hold it up in the air and shake
 it it will go back to english
 sure enough
 it did
 i embraced her
turned
 to look up a phone number
only to discover
 it was back in arabic

i was very upset
 saying
 no
no
no
 no
 no
then
 waking
extremely upset

 i dont even care
why or what
 this was about
i am just glad
 it was a dream
 and
my phone apps
 are
 not
 in
arabic 

after caffeinating
watching the news
 showering
 i headed out
 to get beautified™
 then
to meet my friend
 who toonman calls
blondie
for brunch
 and
shopping
 first
 we went to theory
 were
 i exchanged a pair of leggings
when i bought them
 the sales person
 convinced
me
a size 6 was perfect
 its not
 i am a size 8
 anyway
 they were nice enough to swap them for another style in medium
then
we went to zara
a place
 that has a lot of very 'current' clothing
 for not a lot of $$
 i got a pair of plaid leggings/tights that were $19
 seriously
 $19
 how could i not buy them?

then
we walked up to banana republic
 i found a pair of corduroy slim pants
 in a paisley
 in awesome fall colors
 i am very into pattern pants
 after year
of filling my closet
with
 classic wool black trousers
  skinny leg jeans in mainly blue or black

 oh
 we also went to nanoosh
 for lunch
 mushroom and red pepper humus wraps
with side salads
 really delish
 tho i am sure
they were extremely high in calorie

oh well

 we also stopped into kate spade's new shop on columbus
they were celebrating their grand opening
 with
 white wine and rugalah
 i passed on the wine
 but
 the raisin rugalah
 really hit the spot
i had been craving
 something sweet
besides
 the sweet buys
 i got shopping

 all in all
a really good jam packed weekend
