Weekend

So, this weekend started off with me at a conference at 8:45 in the morning after going to a Weight Watchers meeting that didn't really go very well. Was I salty? Yes, but the day got better. I came home after leaving the conference, buying some new running shoes, getting a smoothie, and finding some lunch. I was excited because I had a couple of hours until a night on the town with some of my sistafriends. I decided to pull out the grown and sexy and did the hot eye shadow (the Loreal High Pigment eye shadows are THE BOMB). I've realized that no matter how crusty I feel, a nice eyeshadow makes me feel better. It was nice to see some friends who I haven't seen for a while and we had fabulous food and conversation. Then, we headed to the movie. Everyone should go and see Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married. When I heard it was coming out I got excited because it wasn't the regular Tyler-dressed-in-drag-as-Medea movie. Plus it was about black people who were married? When do you see that in a movie? I mean real marriage, not just the Huxtables (don't get me wrong, I loved the Cosby show but that was NOT a realistic view of marriage.) Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and I will probably go and see it again with The Sensation and then buy it when it comes out on DVD.

Sunday morning started quite nicely. The Sensation and I slept in and got up in time for lunch. We had a nice lunch and then he went to work and I went to the gym to try out my new running shoes. I loved them! I was actually compelled to run a bit instead of just walk. I am a big fan of them! Back to the grind tomorrow, but only a couple more days until the annual SW birthday bash in NYC.
