Wild weekend

Despite being legitimately sick, I managed to have a jam-packed and super fun weekend, which of course then resulted in me calling in sick on Monday to actually try to get better, but it was totally worth it.  After happy hour drinks with Emma on Friday, I was good and went home and cooked dinner and watched a couple episodes of "Freaks and Geeks".  On Saturday I got up early (at 9am!), bought a Vitamin Water at the 7-11 ($1.99), took the Metro to meet Emma in VA ($5 added to Metro card) to go canvassing for Barack Obama, we stopped at Dunkin Donuts for coffee and donuts ($3.50), my donut sucked so Emma bought me a coffee roll instead, and we headed to Manassas to canvass.

Unfortunately, there was a MASSIVE traffic jam on 66, so we never made it Manassas.  Instead we went to Target and I finally bought a trash can and a mop and a bunch of other stuff that I mostly needed ($80.77).  After Target, Emma drove me home and I did laundry ($20 added to laundry card), and that night Emma, Alexis, Ross, Gary and I went to Ireland's Four Courts in Arlington to watch the totally awesome Sox game, and to get into some more shenanigans ($80 on food and drinks.  Totally worth it.)

Saturday's Total: $191.26

On Sunday I spent most of the day sleeping off a very fun night.  I made it to 7-11 around 4pm to buy icecream, a donut, and string cheese (what can I say, I was hung-over!) ($9.61), eventually showered and got myself together and walked to Zoe and LIzzy's new apartment around 6:30 for a totally delicious dinner.  From there took a cab to Ross' ($15) to watch the Sox, who ended up totally blowing it, so I despondently took another cab home ($14) to sleep off the rest of my hang-over and the very dissapointing loss.

Sunday's Total = $38.61
