Weekend Wrap-Up

I had a pretty fun and eventful weekend. On Friday I completed my community service for my speeding ticket, which consisted of wordlessly directing people down a 10 foot path with a flashlight in nice warm evening weather. I met a couple of nice people too so it was a good time. Earlier that day, Marc came over and we made a lemon meringue pie that was AWESOME, and we also watched some TIVO'd shows, the Office of which was the funniest and I giggled so hard that I had a bit of a sore throat.

Saturday morning I went to a craft fair with some girfriends and got a gift for my dad. Then I did more stupid homework and made a dip for a Holiday party/wine tasting at a friends house. I could make this much funnier and drawn out if I had the time, but lets just say I managed to burn about a lb of bacon, eat about a lb of bacon, and I have the scars on my hands to prove that hot oil and little Katey don't mix. But it was a yummy dip and it was a hit at the party.

The holiday party was so fun. I went with Robyn, her husband Andrew, and our friend Ben. It was such a darned good time and I got to meet a bunch of nice people. Of course, I drank way too much wine, as the lady in charge of the tasting has a "generous pour" as Robyn said. These are some of my quotes of the evening.

To Robyn: "[That girl] is so pretty but needs to whiten her teeth, right?" (the answer was damned skippy"

To a Navy Captain: "Oh you're the guy who sends out those annoying emails before holidays about safety and use a condom and blah blah blah" (Everyone was dying with laughter on this and they were like "we've been wanting to say that for years")

To Robyn: "Did we have a conversation about [that girl] needing to whiten her teeth?

To the adorable Romanian guy I met at the bar later: "Do you live with your mom?" (multiply this by about 9 times and realize that he is NOT going to be
calling me.)

To Robyn: "I can't remember, did I tell you [that girl] had some tooth whitening issues?"

Sunday I helped Marc do lots of Christmas shopping, and that was a pretty darned good time too. It was fun to help him out with it, but it was weird at the same time. Oh well, we had a good time and people kept saying "you guys are such a cute couple" as we were both wearing our Indianapolis Colts jerseys. (If they only knew)
