party like a rockstar.

i am thankful for gold bags

by the looks of it, you can see i don't pack lightly.

all the above is for a simple three day trip. and by three days...it's really just friday, saturday and home sunday. but a girl can never be too sure of the weather, which shoes to wear or what kind of day she's having.

"do i want to wear jeans? ehhh...how about a skirt? or maybe leggings and a sweater?"

so yes, it's all veryyyy necessary.

and where am i heading, you ask. washington dc! ashley and i have some fun events planned. but mainly just eating, drinking, strolling and dancing. there is ALWAYS dancing.

however, i currently feel like i have a brick sitting in my stomach. my co-workers and i ordered out today and i decided on a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel. because naturally, at the time, sounded TO DIE FOR.

and right now, i just feel like i'm dying. blahhhh.

back tracking to yesterday, i came home from work and made myself up a yummy salad. greens make my tummy feel much better then grease. i also had a pumpkin ale. because it just seemed fitting for a wednesday afternoon.


i decided to dive into a book christie lent me. and dive in i did! i had to force myself to put the book down and make dinner.

and it was completely well worth it.

christina had mentioned lemon pepper noodles from trader joes. i've been really excited to give them a try.

four thumbs up from this girl! ya'know...if i had four thumbs.

i am now off to the nation's capitol. obama is expecting me.
