First and most importantly, it's
ALMOST FRIDAY! Whew. What a relief. Although as I type this, I think about my friend
Claire who is a stay at home mom. Fridays probably don't mean the same thing when you are literally doing your job 24/7. I'm grateful for the fact that I do get some break from my job. Even when I take home work at least I don't have to be around the students all that time. And over summer break, I'll have a complete escape. I am lucky.
One Wednesday, D and I were lucky enough to go to an
Allagash beer dinner at the
Busy Bee in Raleigh. I always feel a bit weird taking food pictures when I am surrounded by people I don't know at a beer dinner. I didn't get any pictures from the dinner, but I did come away one a couple temporary souvenirs. I dressed nice since I relish those times I can utilize fancy dresses and heels. After about six high gravity beers, you can get to feeling pretty nice. On the way out, I
loudly gracefully fell down the stairs. I mean, feet out from under me and I'm pretty sure I slid down a couple steps. Luckily those beers did have me feeling pretty wonderful and I laughed it off with a couple of people. I woke up the next morning (feeling fine although like possibly some of that beer was still in my system) with a massive blue and green bruise on my arm. I also felt some pain in my ass. I yi yi. The bruise made writing on the overhead a bit tricky and painful. And I had no one to show the bruise to! D left to go out of town and I was by my lonesome. I don't think a picture would show it very well, but I figured you all might get a laugh out of my
drunkeness clumsiness.
I'll be working on some quality posts this weekend. Happy Friday :)
