It's Friday. I'm finally getting over this stupid cold (just a little congestion left). I have all day to get some laundry done and clean up the apartment (yes, that is actually fun for me). I have brownie mix to make. I also have Saturday and Sunday off. The best part about today?? My fabulous/beautiful/wonderful friend and bridesmaid is coming TONIGHT. And we get to hang out all weekend longgggg. Now, I love living with Nick and having our friend Andrew right down the street, but I feel like they're my only friends as of late. I need my girl time. I really haven't had much this summer and it's kind of sad. So she's coming (and bringing her fiancé so Nick has a friend, too) and we are going to get some Mexican and jumbo margaritas tonight at pretty much every Millikin student's/alumni's favorite place, Mi Pueblito. What's better than cheap food and really strong margaritas?? Especially when they are huge and on special? Nothing, that's what.

So, cheers to a great Friday and weekend, my friends!

P.S. The Kate Spade purse? Yeah, that's actually mine now. I'm a proud mama. Isn't she beautiful???? Yes, it's definitely possible to be in love with a bag ;)
