So this weekend happened ...

There was a Super Bowl.

It was pretty cool, I guess.

I got to watch it with Jessi and Dan the Man, so that was lovely.  They have a projector in their living room, it bodes well for football watching. Plus, Dan made everyone bacon cheese burgers with smoked, cracked pepper crusted bacon, salivating just thinking about them.  Brad and I eat mostly turkey bacon, so it was quite a treat to have the stuff and top quality stuff at that.  Am I going into too much detail about bacon? Is there such thing as too much detail about bacon?  Life's toughest questions.

::This guy didn't even get thrown out.
::B. rocked it so hard she shut down the power, without even singing a single word.
::We got to listen to Ray Lewis, again.
::Kaepernick may have lost, but he still has his faith tattooed on him forever.
::And this guy was my vote for MVP.


But more importantly, guys, I bought a decorative tray for my our coffee table.

I didn't buy anything extra to go with it, just used what I had around the apartment, but I am liking how it is coming together.

I also finally set out some coffee table books on the coffee table, weird concept, I know. 

The tray was on sale at Pier 1 so I decided to pull the trigger.  It was harder than it sounds though, because there were a lot of options to choose from and I am not good at making decisions. I persevered and am happy with my selection.  Plus, if I change my mind I saved the receipt and can take it back, winning!  It does have a few minor cosmetic issues, hence it being 50% off, but I have some dark stain that I think will do the trick.  If not, I will say it is part of its rustic charm.  

Overall, this was a very productive weekend, my taxes are done - thanks Mom and Lyn! Hello, Refund!

Annnnd my hair got did. Speaking of, I have come to the conclusion that the guy who does my hair is just cooler than me.  You know how sometimes you meet people and they just have that vibe. The kind of vibe where you just feel cooler by being in their presence, but understand that they are on a higher level than you.  Emmanuel at One Creativity and Design definitely has that vibe - which if you are going to have someone do your hair, I think you want them to have that trait.

Anyway, quite a successful weekend, if  I do say so myself.

Now I have to get to pick up Bradley tonight at 9:30 way past my bedtime from the airport! Don't tell him, but I kind of missed him this past week.....but only a little, let's not get carried away here, people.


Cheers,

Hitting the Links :: Super Bowl and More Edition

Happy Friday! Happy February! Happy Weekend! Happy It's Almost Super Bowl! So much to be happy about! (Does anyone else sometimes just randomly try and say about with a Canadian accent or is that just me?!) Maybe I watch too much How I Met Your Mother. 

Also, with it being the beginning of February and all, when is the appropriate time to give up your Snowman mug?  My mom got it for me as a gift last year and I just love it. However, if someone wanted to get me a cute Valentines Day mug, I wouldn't complain and would put the snowman down.


Sorry, off topic... let's get to this week's awesome links:



How to do the Super Bowl like a betch. Host an after party viewing of Girls and Downton Abbey to cleanse your brain of beer and Middle America.

Speaking of Super Bowl. Here is your Hater's Guide to Ray Lewis.

Beyonce, you're a boss.

Jimmy Kimmel making a fool of people, yet again!

I love menswear, maybe even more than women's fashion and I love dogs. This may be the internet's perfect pairing.

Which Pride and Prejudice character are you?! 

This is the most precious thing you will see all week. I dare you to try and top it.

Going back to yesterday's post, how cute would these look on my coffee table?!

Lastly, let Macklemore and Ryan Lewis getting you jacked up and carry you into the weekend like it is for my coworker and I.


Happy Super Bowl Weekend!
