Hello friends. It is finally snowing in January and it's feeling like a very lazy night. After watching my Thursday night TV and making a rather successful batch of cookies, I thought I would update my blog as to avoid doing any homework.
This last weekend was full of surprises! For starters, Man-Cub and I planned on going to a Denver Nuggets basketball game Friday night. Most weekend tickets were 40$ for the rafters, so we were very excited to see there were some for 15$! That was definitely in our price range. But with all the service and delivery fees, no matter where we looked, we were unable to find two tickets under 50$. That was definitely not in our price range. But luckily, the game was on TV. So we went to King Soopers for supplies and settled in with some home-made pizza and Nuggets on TV.
As you can see, Man-Cub bought himself some beer to go with his pizza, and kindly found a single bottle of Mike's Hard for my fruity taste. :)
I also broke-in my Spiderman apron mom got me for Christmas while making a coconut cake! Also delicious.
Saturday we had to get up and all ready to go because my landlord was showing the apartment early afternoon. Like the kind girlfriend I am, I let Man-Cub sleep a little extra while I made home-made biscuits with sausage and eggs. (Thinking of my dad, obvs.)
That afternoon I took him to see the apartment I will be living in next semester. With my roommate graduating in May and me graduating in December, I had to find somewhere with only a 6 month lease. The apartment is a little further out east, and extremely pink, but I'm still grateful it's somewhere to live. The town resembles Radiator Springs from Cars considering there are only 2 cafes, a liquor store, and a gas station. Man-Cub was slightly underwhelmed thinking about how much there wasn't to do in such a small town, but he did think the apartment was nice. But in case you don't believe me for just how pink it is...I sent Selah a picture and she described it as Lisbeth Salander moving into the sorority house. Unfortunately my phone spontaneously deleted all my photos before I got them on my computer, but I think you get the point.
Speaking of Selah, that was the biggest surprise of the weekend! After visiting the new apartment, Man-Cub and I decided to hang out at Starbucks for a bit before going and home and while there, we got an interesting phone call. Selah got engaged!!! We are both excited for her and are excited to meet her fiance. Man-Cub is planning on flying out there with me over Spring Break for just a couple days. Looking forward to it for sure. (Not totally the awesome Charleston/beach vacation expected, but still good.) :)
Later that night Man-Cub and I made some paninis. Whoever said you needed a panini press?? Our George Foreman grill worked just fine. :)
Some delicious food, big surprises, a few episodes of Breaking Bad, and a couple good movies later, we'd call this a successful weekend.
As excited as I am that there's finally snow in January, I'm hoping this "blizzard" tonight doesn't prevent another fun weekend visit to Fort Collins. Stay warm!!!
P.S. How cute is he in his little hat?!
