On Friday I had a couple of friends pass on some bad news. A friend of mine from Richmond lost her husband suddenly Friday morning, another friend of mine told me some bad news about his dad, and another friend of mine had a miscarriage. So, it was not the most auspicious start to the weekend.
But all the bad news DID give me the urge to see my family, so I made a quick trip home on Saturday morning (I know I had said no driving, but I really wanted to see them). I drove my sister, JP, and Baby V to the airport at stupid early in the morning and then drove up to my mom and dad's.
My dad was a little less enthusiastic about seeing me when I dragged him out of bed way earlier than he likes to wake up, to make him take me to breakfast. In my defense, I had been awake for 3 hours at this point and I was hungry. AND to be honest, I waited a half hour longer than I really wanted to before waking him up. So, I think I was a good daughter. :-)
Later that night, I hung out with SH and went and saw Friends with Benefits which was surprisingly not as terrible as I was expecting. I pretty much went in with no expectations and was pleasantly surprised. I mean, obviously not film of the year or anything, but it had its moments. Plus, I have a huge girl crush on Mila Kunis and I pretty much geek out over Woody Harrelson, so they made it worth my time. :-) Then, Sunday was spent with Bug catching up on everything that has happened in the last few months.
So, started out kind of sad on Friday, but all in all, I had a really good weekend. It was great catching up with my friends, and even greater not driving all over the state to see them.
I sort of slacked on the whole running thing (skipped two of my runs...sigh), but this week should only be in the 90s. I can totally handle running in that.
If you're still reading, hope you had a good weekend!
