wahoo for a day off!!

hello everyone!!!!

this weekend was a really nice weekend!! it was soooooo nice to have monday off as well. i needed it!! it was nice being able to hang out w/tory and scott, "help" them location scout, more like i just walked around with them, but still.. it was nice to be outside during the day!!! i made a pot roast in the crock pot and garlic mashed potatoes from scratch (as laura would say) and steamed some green beans for dinner. i think everything turned out pretty good, so that's good!! i like being able to make tory happy :)

sunday was a really nice valentine's day. it was so nice being able to spend this valentine's day with tory!! we exchanged gifts and cards before we headed to the city. i got tory a book that he wanted. tory got me some chocolates, a cd case with cd's he had made me and a bottle of wine called 'middle sister, forever cool' hahaha. after that we left for san fran around 3pm and went and saw a movie (An Education). it was good, but the ending was a little rushed.. sooo.. it was okie dokie. afterwards we walked to where we were going to eat dinner, which was in the north beach area, where all the good italian places are! while we were walking, we stopped and tory bought me some red tulips for vday :) it was very sweet of him and i felt extra special walking through the city with some beautiful flowers and a handsome boyfriend!! we made it to the restraunt where i had made reservations a couple days before for 8:30pm and got there around 7:30 or so, but got right in surprisingly! first thing i noticed though was that they hiked .. and i mean HIKKKKKKED the prices of all the food for valentine's day.. every entree was at least $20... i was a little upset about that because the prices on their websites didn't say anything about a valentine's day special price hike.. sooo, it was a bit of a bummer. plus, the food wasn't all that great either.. i was disappointed. we asked for a ceasar salad w/o anchovies, got anchovies, which wasn't a big deal.. but.. yea. then tory ordered his food as tortellini, the way it was written on the menu, when our server asked if he wanted tortellini or ravioli, tory said tortellini... and got ravioli. it was just waaaay to expensive for the quality of the food. we had a really nice valentine's day though... so that was all that mattered!! hopefully we can make going to the city our vday tradition. :)

this week has been fine.. i feel like i've been working all week! haha. i'm ready for the weekend again... my car issues have become annoying.. the company that already has my deposit couldn't transport my car because the guy who was supposed to be driving the truck, well, his wife left him... so, needless to say, i don't know when i'm going to be getting my car out here. i hope it's sometime soon though!!!!

on another note, tory had an audition with the NBC show, 'Trauma', yesterday!! i hope he gets the part!! it would be a really good opportunity. i will let you guys know if anything happens!! i will upload some pics from valentine's day when i get home from work!!

love and miss you all!! hope you had a great vday!! :)
