third post today… feast or famine, right, guys?

So this weekend is going to be pretty great – it’s three days (even though I’m still temping so that’s a whole day of pay lost) and I’ve got lots of fun stuff going on. However, all of that fun stuff is actually five days in a row of planning and celebrating four other people’s weddings. I know the right man will come along someday but it’s still hard to not compare yourself to your peers. In order to not dwell on this too much, I’m giving myself a little lovely Abby time.

After work my friend Jenni and I went for pedis, and couldn’t get an appointment for 45 minutes so we went to the bar… just enough time for two g&ts each. The seasoned lady behind the bar did not mess around with the gin, either. Off to the spa, where we ended up splurging on buff manis too, then home and immediate PJ time. Cake round 1/3 is in the oven, round 2 is mixed, and I realized I hadn’t eaten anything today except one sushi roll at lunch – so I ended up making myself pasta in a white sauce with peas, corn, and tuna. Super yum. I also decided to go for my second splurge of the day and open a bottle of wine that I had been saving “for something special”… if I’m not special, what is?

I’m going to get all these cakes baked tonight, and sleep in tomorrow, then prettify the cakes and go to a lovely party! Sunday I’m going wedding dress shopping with the BFF, and Monday I’m making decorations for another lovely friend! I am glad to be part of all these celebrations for people I love.
