Five on Friday | July 29, 2016

Well hello Friday! Boy, am I happy to see you! This was an incredibly busy work week as I was simultaneously carrying two big projects so I am super glad it is Friday and I can turn down the brain activity for a little bit.

ONE

I am so looking forward to Sunday. We have tickets to see one of my absolute favorite musicians, Matt Nathanson. He is originally from the Boston area so when I was in college I got to see him a lot and he is absolutely amazing live. Since then he has gotten a bit more famous but still keeps his indie feel. This will be concert number 15-ish for me and I am so excited! I have now seen him perform in MA, NY, CT, SC, NC and PA. I even randomly met him once after a concert. My best friend and I saw him perform in Central Park and as we were walking home we bumped in to him! He was awesome and took a photo and it will always be one of my favorite moments. If you don’t know his music you MUST check him out.

Before I took my current job in March I was working a job I really didn’t like. And it really didn’t like me either so when we parted ways it was a glorious occasion. However, there were two guys I shared a hallway with that I adored. One of them has also left that job so we now all three work at different places. We still talk often and take turns hosting the others for dinner. Last time we got together I made a strawberry cake for dessert and it didn’t occur to me that I was taking a pink cake to dinner with three guys! Oops! Well this week the hubby and I hosted the guys at our place for taco night! It was so great to see them both, and laugh a lot, like we always do when we are together! I don’t miss that job but I sure do miss seeing them every day.

A major part of starting the blog was documenting these newlywed times since I failed to start in time to document our wedding. #LifeHappens. But I am going back and documenting it through Wedding Wednesdays. I started this week with How We Met. Go back and read it. It is a serious reminder we are never in control. And that I am stubborn to a fault. And keep coming back on Wednesdays for more!

Have you all given in to the Pokemon craze? Well my husband and I did. It is silly, yes. But it is also fun. And we like playing together and seeing what how the other person is doing. This picture cracks me up.

GILMORE GIRLS HAS A RELEASE DATE! I literally screamed last night when I saw the trailer and release date. It happens to be four days after my birthday so Happy Birthday to me! I can’t wait for the new episodes. Now time to start watching the show from the beginning in preparation. Oy with the poodles already!

I met Lauren Graham once too, outside a Broadway stage door when she performed in Guys and Dolls. Sometimes I really miss the awesomeness of NYC.

Hope everyone has a super happy weekend. Stay cool out there!
