Run Through Weekend

Listening to: Pandora (Teddybears Radio station)

Well, quite a lot has happened this weekend even though if I count in my head, it wasn't really that much.

Friday was setting up to be a pretty uneventful day. I went to the pet store and Wal Mart (and bought a bra that doesn't fit because that's how little I shop) and sat at home bummed with nothing to do until I made plans to go to hookah in Riverside with an old friend, Jimmy. I haven't seen him in like 3 years, and I don't go to Riverside often so I took the opportunity to grab me some Yoshinoya. Love that place. So sad it's not around here anymore. There used to be one in San Bernardino and one in Rialto. So that was nice.

Saturday I tagged along with Chantal to the Orange Muffin Festival. Thankfully we got there as it was ending so I didn't have to cringe my way past too many bags of wrinkles. I bought a ring and a nice choker from a jewelry booth. There was an interesting booth where notepads and sketchpads were made from rescued old hard back book covers. Very interesting. Also, I fell in love with a messenger bag from a lady named Candy who owns candiedfabrics.com and sells scarves (not interested myself) and dyes fabric to make notebook covers, totes, clutches, messengers bags, etc. It was $134. :( So that's the sad face of it, but the happy face of it is that Chantal found out how much I really was sad about it and said that soon we will get together and have a go at making one ourselves.

I would honestly love to try and make one myself. Her prices are high due to her 'sketchy' design and it's hand made and all that jazz. I remember being so proud of myself and happy with the outcome of the duct tape clutch I'd made for Joy (it melted, it doesn't exist anymore) and would like to try my hand at crafts like that again.

We all got off work early because the Run Through Redlands was Sunday and needed to go in Monday's paper (which we usually dish out Saturday) and since Rob was having a huge party at the house, I was generously offered sleep on Chantal's couch. Thank you Chantal. Stuart was a little tipsy off of champagne pong so he called a few times to say goodnight and that he loves me (Awwws <3)

So I sucked bad at the run because I'm overweight and I have that thing wrong with my foot. Yup, full of excuses.
