hello!!!!!
yay!! i'm so glad that it's wednesday already!! my boss wasn't at work yesterday and he's not going to be in today either because he is going to a food show with the rest of the people that work with me... not fair! so i get to be here all day... blehk. but oh well, it'll be nice to have the office to myself again! i had a grrrrrrrreat weekend!! i'll start from the beginning...
well, my car is finally here so i can drive places! it is a magical feeling! haha, it is very nice to be able to drive to work and anywhere i want, but i do miss tory dropping me off in the morning. ohhh well...
anywho, friday was a fun night!! (AND LAURA'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!) HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN :) !!!!!! anywho, tory, scott, katie (scott's roommate) and myself got tickets to go see this play called 'Learn to be Latina'. it was hilarious. i don't think i've ever laughed so hard in a play... ever. it was just so unpredictable and soooo laugh out loud funny. it was awesome. two of the girls that were in tory & scott's web mini-series were in the play as well, so it was so awesome to go and support them! the coolest thing about the play location is that it is in the basement of a pizza place near campus. you can get pitchers of beer up top in the pizza place and bring them downstairs and have a beer while you watch the play! it is pretty awesome. i think it's my favorite place to go and watch the play. we've been to three plays at this place (it's called Impact Theatre). it's awesome, i always look forward to going to see plays here. they are always good!! here is the website: http://www.impacttheatre.com/ afterwards we went to a bar and had another beer and played shuffleboard. tory and i whooped up on scott and katie (like always).. haha, just kidding, but seriously. tory and i rule (for the most part) when we play something on the same team! we had such a fun night!!
saturday we ventured out to the city to watch tottenham play at our favorite new bar, Danny Coyle's. here is the website to this bar: http://www.dannycoyles.com/Photo_s.html if you go and click on the photos & press tab you can see pictures.. andddd you will notice that there are a couple pictures that are pretty much just baby blue.. FOR NORTH CAROLINA!!!!! we found out that this bar is not only a tottenham bar, but a UNC one as well... what a coincidence, huh?!?! pretty awesome.. needless to say, we're going to be spending a lot of time here!! anywho, the tottenham game was a draw... but hey, that's better than losing! steve (tory's old roommate) came and hung out with us for the day as well. we just walked around the haight/ashbury area grabbing some drinks here and there. it was such a beautiful day, so we tried to sit outside as much as possible. tory said that he heard about this outdoor bar a bunch, so we decided to go check it out. it's called Zeitgeist.. it was awesome. it had THE best bloody mary's ever!! they had green beans and olives on toothpicks that they put in your drink... tory was so happy that he got to have all of my olives. haha :) it was a lot of fun, so we hung out there for a bit and then headed back towards Danny Coyle's to watch the UNC/duke game. there were probably 20-30 if not more UNC fans.. it was craaazy packed!! i probably saw 2 dukies... grrrr. the game sucked... pretty upsetting, but ohhhhh well.. next year.. next year.. we headed home after the game because we were both exhausted. we had a great day!
sunday consisted of cleaning and cooking! i was trying to get ready for people coming over for the oscars!!! whoo hoo!! tory was busy working with scott location scouting, etc.. so that gave me a chance to vaccuum their downstairs area that was infested with zissou hair!! haha! so i ended up making guacamole, sausage balls, carrots and celery, cookies, bagel bites, chicken bites, and some chips and dip.. i think that's about it. we had about 10 people in total over, filled out oscar ballots and commented on what was going on. i had so much fun! i ended up winning the oscar ballot contest as well, so that was exciting!! i got 14 right!! whoo hooo!! it was nice that a female won best director/best film in the same year! about time a woman won best director!! it's only been 84 years!!!!! it was a very fun time to have a big group of people over for the first time!! i think it went well!!
monday i took the day off to help tory out on a shoot. my boss said it would be fine. we spent the day in oakland shooting for this fed ex spec commercial. it's a contest, so if they win it might actually become a commercial!! so hopefully, they'll win. it's a funny concept!! when we got to oakland, we noticed a bunch of big trucks and trailers.. Trauma.. the show that tory & scott are going to be on were shooting in the area as well!! haha.. so that was pretty funny. by the way, that went grrrrrrreat. the director even came up to tory and scott to say how much he liked their snicker's commercial!!! pretty neat stuff. they have to go back again next tuesday (16th). annnnywho, we got kicked out of one location they were planning on shooting at, so we had to go to the next shot. which worked out better because if we hadn't gone to this shot, we probably wouldn't of gotten done on time (especially before the rain started)!!! tory and scott went location scouting yesterday and said that they found an even better location in the city, so that's good!! it was such a fun day.. i wish i was doing this sort of this all day every day!! but ohhh well.. one of these days!!
tomorrow is my aunt's birthday!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT JANICE!!!! i hope you have an awesome one!! love and miss you!!! i hope i will get to see you soon!!!
well, i guess that's about it for my weekend.. it was a nice one!! i don't think we have any plans as of yet for this weekend, but i will be sure to update next week to let you know what we did!! hope everyone is having a great day!! love and miss you all!!
