this weekend was such a blast!

i haven't had a weekend this jam-packed and this much fun in a while. it was just one fun thing after another.

on friday night, me, michael, annie and jared went to maggie paino's 25th birthday karaoke party at the office lounge. we ate some fried snacks, had some drinks, and become best buds with the lady running karaoke. we bonded over swear words and standing on chairs. we also talked about awesome karaoke songs we could sing, but actually had to leave before we got a chance to sing any of them, but that's ok. oh and, maggie made us cookie treat bags for coming to her party!

after the bday party, annie and i headed over to pour house so she could do a quick acoustic set with rodeo. they dedicated a song to me.

after that, we headed over to a college party house for a prayer breakfast basement show. it was a total raging party! and prayer breakfast played a really good, fun set. we chanted GTL (gym, tan, laundry) and pretzel rods (like the kind you eat). but, i did forget to wear my slutty-hipster-party clothes.

on saturday, annie, jennie, and i went to bedford to go thrifting, antique-ing, kmart-ing, and jcpenny-ing. it was so great. the kmart and jcpenny were kind of a let down (and their casa brava has vengeful waiters), but i think overall, bedford is a pretty underrated town. they have some pretty great antique/thrift stores and really nice houses that are super affordable (who wants to move to bedford??). we went to aunt kate's, where annie got a nice trunk, then to the elegant lady, and then to bufford's emporium, where i got a pitcher and wash basin (that i absolutely do not need) for only $10!

in between our daytime activities and night time partying, annie and i started watching love actually. say what you will, but i really enjoy that movie.

saturday night me, annie, dave and jennie headed over to the pine room tavern in nashville to see the best cover band ever. the pine room tavern is awesome. i definitely wouldn't mind going back sometime soon. it has a very nice ambiance, good food, and great tunes. oh, and it also had some other great forms of entertainment... namely drunk 40 year-old ladies.

and finally, on sunday, i got to hang-out with carrie and colleen in indy, with our good friend alyssa. it was so great to see her! i do wish we could have seen her under better circumstances (her dad is at the IU med center), but it was great nonetheless. we ate some good grub at au bon pain, laughed, and caught up.

man, what a GREAT weekend. good friends, good food, good times!

lovejess
