a day in the life....

I love weekends.

Yesterday, Lana and I planned a terrific girlie night. We started late afternoon - opting to meet at Cedars at 4pm for shwarma supper. An early supper, to ensure we had ample time to enjoy some chick flicks, annnnnd most importantly, to provide ample time between supper and movie time to enjoy movie snacks. Supper took no time to arrive, and it was delish, as usual. We landed back at her place, after a visit to two video stores, the bulk barn and the good ol' LC, just after 6pm. We were good and fed, and carried with us an armload of candy goodies, Doritios, wine, shooters, and a season 1-4 DVD of Degrassi High (the original).

Supper (with tip): $16.81
Bulk Barn treats: $9.06 & $6something for Lana
LC: $19.98
That's Entertainment: $19something for Lana
7ish hours of nostalgic entertainment with Spike, Wheels, Snake, Joey Jeremiah; a candy buffet; stinky feet Doritos; wine; and, QT with the bestie: PRICELESS :)

Chris was at the Crapaud Exhibition shooting everything from tractor pulls to hot air balloon rides. He'd left the house just after 11am. He'd sent a text that he was shooting in Tryon at 10:45pm. I replied, asking what he'd be shooting at that hour. Well, the Milky Way, of course ;). By the time he made it to bed after uploading and a few edits, it was just after 2 am. He'd shot the balloons at dusk, and at 4am his alarm goes off and he's back in his car heading back to Crapaud for the balloon take off at sunrise. He's home just after 9am, uploads a few more photos, showers, and is back on the move for a family portrait at 11am. We're scheduled to be at the Mason's for a maternity shoot at 2pm. He anticipated an early bedtime tonight until he realized it was Big Brother night. Priorities, ya know.
