Saturday...

So, today I pretty much made myself sleep in late.. Made a great baked omelet breakfast. Chatted with one of my roomies for a couple hours... and then, have spent the rest of the day looking like this while I am attempting to do homework...

Yup, sans makeup, in the glasses, uber comfy long sleeved shirt, under a blanket, and with my earbuds in. That is the majority of my saturday.

Perfect Saturday...

Today has been a perfect Saturday.. It has been so long since I have had one, that I almost forgot what they even felt like... looked like.. and more importantly how precious they are. I woke up gloriously late (11am) and was greeted by a text inviting me to join my friend for a run.. Not exactly my favorite, but since it was beautiful outside for the first time in a solid week, and I really have to begin training for my 10k in less than two months, I agreed, and even was ok glad to work off the energy and stress. Although, to be fair, I am terribly out of shape, but glad to get back into it. Then I took my time showering and getting ready for my day, including making myself an amazing omelet. Afterwards I took off to the Metro to take a ridiculously long ride into the city, although it was faster than trying to drive once I passed the expressway!... Slowly I made my way to Ebenezers coffee shop (The coffee shop owned by my church) to spend hours upon hours reading and doing homework. I typically have very little drive to accomplish any of it on the weekend, but since I had a gift card from my roomie (thank you!) I decided it was the perfect excuse to head in, get a change of scenery, and get some things accomplished since I am once again in a class I do not understand much about (Stats AGAIN?!). It feels awesome to be in a familiar setting of coffee and people wafting in and out while I people watch and read incredibly boring articles... It is a nice familiar welcome change of pace.

Later the plan is to meet up with some friends to show them a tri-level jazz club here in the city.. Doing whatever I want, at whatever pace I choose... This is like an old friend I forgot how enjoyable their company is!...

Plus the sun has been out all day!

Saturdays...

Today is going to be a great day.. (minus the fact that I was up at 7am to let our landlord into the house to do some minor repairs...)

A few of my besties are coming into town today, all because they are traveling elsewhere and I happen to be in DC and the best place for a crashpad!.. However, I will take any excuse to hang with them! So, our time will be awesome and lots of fun I am sure :)

Also, while I have a lot of laundry, homework, cleaning, and normal daily stuff to do that I have been putting off, I am content that it is finally the weekend. Especially Saturday. For some reason Saturday is always the breathe deep day for me. The day that allows me to put behind me the craptastic work week I just had, and look forward to church and another day "off." Saturdays are the days that just make life ok again.
