lazy blogger/friday fun #23

Actually, not lazy - I've been really busy at work and since I don't have a home pc just yet I haven't been able to update.

Spent last weekend in the Lou with my honey, 4 of his fraternity brothers, and their wives. We went to the Cards game Friday night and had a good time. We got tipsy during the 2 hour rain delay so T and I went for a walk around the Arch and to the car for warm clothes. Somewhere along the way, I injured my ankle and was hobbling even after consuming more alcohol than I should have. When we woke on Saturday, it was bruised and swollen so that put a kink in our weekend. We ended up driving 2 hours to stay at one of the brother's house. We ate and drank and played games, it was a really great time. Sunday we drove back to the Lou and spent the day together before my flight home. Which, by the way, cost less than it would have for me to have driven there. Hmpf.

We had great food that entire weekend and I think I gained the 5 lbs back that I had just lost. Friday we had bar food and beer before and after the game. Saturday we had Joanie's - our fav pizza place in Downtown St. Louis. That night our friends grilled steak, and we had baked potatoes, a beautiful salad, mushroom and sour cream crepes, and a few other yummy things I can't think of. Sunday we woke up to a breakfast of mushroom and red pepper quiche, rum cake, fruit trifle, and oj. I seriously did not want to come home...

When I did get home and settled, I wound up getting an x-ray of my ankle because the pain isn't getting better with ice and elevation. There's no fractures but Dr. Bossman seems to think that I've pulled a tendon or ligament and that it could take 8-12 weeks to heal. There goes the wedding diet and soccer for awhile. So, that's what I've been up to...

How about some Friday Fun? Let's Feast...

Appetizer

What was your favorite cartoon when you were a child? I loved the Smurfs and the Jetsons.

Soup

Pretend you are about to get a new pet. Which animal would you pick, and what would you name it? The only pet I can imagine having is a fish or a kitty and I can never name a pet until I get him/her home and see what fits.

Salad

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how much do you enjoy getting all dressed up for a special occasion? I love, love, love getting dressed up so that's definitely a 10!

Main Course

What kind of music do you listen to while you drive? Something I can sing along with...

Dessert

When was the last time you bought a clock? And in which room did you put it? I bought an alarm clock and put it in my bedroom.
