Some weekends are relaxing, some are a mile-a-minute, and some just right. This weekend fits right into the just right category. After getting off of work at 11:30AM, my last half-day Friday until next summer, I headed home (traffic-free, I might add) to hit up the mall. I had to exchange a shirt that was cute but I knew I would never wear it enough to justify keeping it. Once I found the perfect teal, lacy shirt to replace it, I got the fuck outta the mall. Fridays are intense there, way too many people for my comfort.
While at home, I cranked up the air conditioner and watched cheesy romance netflix movies until I started to get ready for the Angels game. Because they charge an arm and a leg at the stadium, Liz, Nicki and I purchased three big boy bottles of beer at our local store. A WISE investment. Once at the Stadium's parking lot, we boozed it up while stealthily hiding our beers from the pony-riding police. After one of our cowboy cops informed us to get into the stadium or leave, we staggered into the stadium. Once our buzz started wearing off because the game was long and the Angels were losing, we decided another beer was in order. I think that was the lucky charm because the Angel's rallied to win the game! Of course at this point in the night we could have gone home, but why when we are feeling good? So, what came to our minds? THE NOOK! After an intense round of me watching poker on TV and the girls playing pool we called it a night.
Waking up to a FAT headache in the morning, I put on my clothes and drove down to Costa Mesa to meet up with my favorite hair stylist. She cut and colored my hair and I forked over 150 bucks. Good transaction overall, glad to not have to fork over 150 dollars again until December.
Drew picked me up for Marina's engagement party around two thirty so that we could make our grand entrance. Unfortunately, there was no parking up where the party was at so we made our long trek from the parking lot through the park and to the party. After getting all sweaty cause of the heat, we were greeted with hugs and offerings of food. We gladly accepted both. Once the games started, I knew I was going to have to kick some ass. Liz and I were partnered up and totally beat everyone. At the next game, everyone lost cause the game was faulty/rigged so that we just look like retards doing it. Picture time came next with the bridal party. Drew got to show his photographer skills and we got to show our beautiful faces. After cake, people started dragging and the heat damage started kicking in. We left and pretty much all set our alarms to 8 so that we could nap (all separately, duh).
My driver, Drew, picked me up again and we set off to Club Berto's for some drinks and snacks. Normally I love Club Berto's, but when there are people that can't open their mouth without a D bag comment, it gets hard to want to be there. I swear, I was going to punch him in the face! I didn't know if other's were feeling the same way but Liz said the same thing so I knew I wasn't crazy. And when Drew texted me from across the circle say that he was a D Bag, I knew we had a valid D bag argument. Drew, Liz, Nicki and I were so over the D bag that we actually left because we didn't want to be near him.
After a damn good sleep, I drove to Burbank to meet up with Kim to go apartment hunting. With the 100 degree temperatures outside and the smoke filled air, it wasn't the most comfortable day to go but it needed to be done. After seeing one place, in a not so nice area, we were really ready to find the perfect place. After eating lunch at a quaint restaurant, we went to Dracena to see a 2BD 2BA. We walked in to the place and just knew. It was spacious, there were wood floors throughout, the kitchen was brand new. Perfect. After filling out the applications, while sweat driped down our face, we felt a little relieved. We don't have the apartment yet bc he needs to run our credit but hopefully we will find out soon!
Driving home was relaxing due to the cranked AC and The Juliana Theory album. I finished off the night watching Sunshine Cleaning and playing dominoes with my parents and the neighbors. I lost by a mile so here I sit finishing off my weekend. I'll fall asleep in a few and see what this next week brings my way!

Sounds like a busy weekend! I'm glad you found another apartment you liked! I hope you get it! Apartment hunting can be stressful. I'm sure you looked awesome in your bridal party pics! :-)
