this weekend was a ton of fun, and flew by a bit faster than i expected! on saturday james, erik, and i went to the cal game. i felt so badly because i was really craving a pretzel, so i asked james to get up when the game felt like it was dragging on and on. of course that's when cal decides to get all fancy and bust out a flea-flicker. james missed it live, but i guess saw it on the tv as he was buying my snack!! hee hee!! sorry!!

after that, we grabbed a lite dinner of salad and garlic bread at tomatina and then headed to deanza college to watch a pink floyd laser show. i know...how random!! james loves pink floyd, and really, why not hang out and watch a laser interpretation inside a planetarium. hehehehhehe!! it was pretty cool, and i'd totally do it again. they have other bands they do shows for like U2 and the beatles, so that will be on my to-do list at some point. :)

yesterday, i started the day with a bagel with james, shona, and kynan, and then off to mani-pedis with shona and the roomies!! such a nice way to pamper yourself, and i decided to go bright pink for the wedding reception, not a boring french manicure. it's my party and i'll pink it up if i want to!! :) after that, we had a very delicious meal at a thai restaurant in downtown mountain view that i haven't tried before. luckily shona's been to thailand like 8 times, so she said this one was the most authentic. it wasn't that spicy even though we did ask for it, but everything was very fresh, and my mouth still tastes like cilantro.

this week, i'm doing a few last minute things for the reception, and then halloween on friday!! i've also got to fit packing for the honeymoon in there, but i know it will all work out!! after saturday's big party, james and i will be gone to hawaii for two weeks!! i'm pretty sure i won't be updating this thing very often, so sorry i'm gone for a bit!! i can't wait for a tropical vacation, and i'm spoiled by james to be gone for so long, and have NO idea what we're doing while we're there!! that boy loves his adventures, and i'm sure i'll have really fun stores when i return.

oh, and what are you all doing for halloween? i think i'm dressing up as linda richman from coffee talk, and having a few friends over for halloween movies/treats. i'm not going all out and having a huge party like i thought i'd try to pull off, just with the reception the next day and all. i've got my halloween candy treat bags ready, and i'm making caramel apples and halloween cupicakes later this week. izze has cute halloween cans, so those are chillin in the fridge, and i'll probably have a few easy snacks for the evening. oh, and i need to carve my pumpakin, but i'm not sure what i want to do yet. hopefully a bit of inspiration comes my way in the next day or two!!

see you all in a bit!!
