5 Things I'm looking forward to this weekend

Usually I get to see my wonderful boyfriend on the weekends since we live +140 miles apart and can't see each other during the week.  However today is one of those weird weekends where it didn't work for me to get a train and he can't drive to see me, so even though I'm bummed I won't get to see him, here are five things I am really excited for:

  1. Sleep:  This work has been crazy busy with me coming in early and staying late for events and other work tasks.  The events weren't easy cake walks, most of them had some issues with them and I've still had my regular work stuff on top of that, I've been feeling like I'm burning the candle at both ends so I'm definitely looking forward to sleeping in both Saturday and Sunday
  2. Goodwill trip:  My friend and I occasionally do these Goodwill trip/days where we scope out 4-5 Goodwills in Virginia looking at books, furniture, clothes, and old POM glasses.  We have not had a trip in awhile and I have a few bags of things to get rid of from my own house!
  3. Reading on my balcony:  It's finally cooling down here in DC and Sunday is supposed to be beautiful.  All I want to do is go out on my balcony with a cup o' joe and my book and read for hours on end.  I'm currently in the middle of Outlander and even though I've read it before, I'm still hopelessly enthralled!
  4. Television watching: Speaking of Outlander, it's now a television show and I can't wait for the new episode on Saturday - I really hope it's the wedding!  Since I'm the only one who gets Starz my friends come over to my place and we all hang out and swoon over the Scottish kilts and accents.
  5. Ska Band: this is a recent addition, as in the last hour, when my friends decided that it would be fun to go out and see a ska band tonight.  I've never been to the bar, but the group of friends is always fun so I'm looking forward to going out for a bit after the gym and dinner - let's hope I last that long and don't fall asleep on the stationary bike!

 Those are my fun plans for the weekend - a bonus #6 would be a possible skype date with boyfriend and with family, I used to be hesitant about skype but now I love seeing the faces and expressions of the people I talk to and I'm a full convert!

What about you?  Any fun things happening in your neck of the woods for this weekend?
