see eric finish the Chinatown Firecracker 5k.

e and his work posse.

one of these things is not like the others...

trumped

Sorry to disappoint, but craft night was instantly trumped by an impromptu date night. If you know me at all, you know date nights trump just about everything.
Just after publishing that last post, pj got invited for a sleepover at his friend's house.

Soooo. E and I ventured out and saw
date night = great
this movie = not so great

It felt a little M. Night Shyamalanish. I thought the twist was a bit too obvious about halfway through and kept hoping for a double twist, but no such luck.

eric's rating: 6
lauren's rating: 8
{because leo rocked it. and i like mark ruffalo. and michelle williams. and i just love going to the movies}

how did that happen?

it's the perfect storm, the trifecta, the bermuda triangle...i don't care what you call it. all i know is that all the {main} rooms in my house are clean, i have no homework due until next week and eric is making dinner {even if it is a frozen pizza, this girl is takin' it!}. AND it's not midnight and i have {a little bit of} energy. bring on the crafting! my brain is swirling and luckily for our checking account all the fabric stores are closed for the evening so i'll have to be resourceful. but that's ok, i like being resourceful and i've got the buzz! wishing i had my screen printing kit, but alas, that fun will have to commence tomorrow. time to get out the scissors and thread! sister, do you have my good scissors?
no matter, i love you, anyway.

i'm thinking about trying to mimic these...

or these...

the night is my oyster and i'm off to slurp it up!

ready for the fresh and new

we're still here. i suppose i should stop being surprised when 4,5,6 weeks go by in what feels 1. i'm ready to start blogging again with a fresh, spring header because i can if i want to. here's a little happy to tide you over until i return...
