Low-key weekend

Even though I've been sick all weekend Dan & I still managed to have a good time. I slept in a bit on Saturday morning & then basically loafed around 'til noon. I got another tote & box packed. Dan had to work till 3, the poor thing :( Our friends Dan & Lana picked me up around 3:30 and we met my Dan at an apartment we've decided to share when our leases are up. We'll get a 6 month lease and our rent will fall to below 1/2 what we're paying now...which will save us plenty of $$ for our Illinois move. We filled out the rental apps & put down a holding fee, so we should hear later this week if we've been approved (I don't see why we wouldn't be).

Saturday evening we went to Fast Forward (the rollerskating rink in Madison) for Lana's birthday. Dan & I both tried roller skates for a few laps & decided to switch to rollerblades. We stuck w/ the blades the rest of the evening. I think its been at least 8 years since the last time I did something like this. I have a pair of rollerblades, however I haven't managed to pull them out of the closet & dust them off yet. Maybe this summer :) After skating we all went to the Great Dane for a few drinks. I was exhausted by this point and ready to take some Nyquil and go to bed. But we hung around till 11:30 or so (late for us :).

I didn't sleep well Saturday night and woke up this morning feeling worse. I feel like I haven't been able to me more than a couple inches away from a box of kleenex all day. We went to the Cub Foods on Verona Rd. to do some grocery shopping, because they're closing the store everything was on sale. Everything had pretty much been picked through, but we were able to find a few bargains. We did the rest of our grocery shopping at Copps. Now we're home, I just cleaned out the litter box and there's laundry in the washer/dryer, so it looks like I've got plenty of things to keep me occupied until bed. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll be able to sleep better tonight.

Well, I hope everyone had a good weekend. For those of you up north here, I hope you took advantage of the awesome weather we had! Could winter be over already?

It looks like you guys are having a heat wave! I don't think winter is over for you yet though. Sounds like you are keeping busy and I will keep my fingers crossed that you are able to get the apartment.
