"Did you have a good weekend?"
"What did you do this weekend?"
Sometimes I have difficulty answering the above questions because the weekend can be composed of many parts. I also like to talk and share, so sometimes it's almost painful to give the response most people are looking for which is, "Good, and yours?" Instead, I sometimes wind up rattling off way too many random details and the questioner winds up with glassy eyes.
Unless I have a birthday party or other planned engagement, my dream weekends (as a 30-something) involve doing laundry, working out, eating sushi, eating samples at the supermarket while I shop for the next week, and hitting Target. Somewhere in time it finally hit me that Friday night doesn't have to be date night or girls' night. It can be acceptable (and sometimes physically necessary due to exhaustion from the week) to stay home.
This past weekend, I did the following:
- went to visit a friend that had a polyp removed from his nasal cavity
- watched Lord of the Rings for the first time (What's up with the non-ending?!!)
- crashed another churched singles' event to see if the grass is greener (fyi-it's the same color)
- did a load of laundry
- stayed with a family's dog
- went to church
- bought a pair of used cowboy boots at Urban Outfitters
- bought a new Target dress
- bought a new CD and found out it was missing underneath the plastic, DOH!
- got a haircut from my hairdresser the Italian Stallion
