weekend fun :)

determined to not let anyone or anything ruin our weekend together, brandon and i planned something for every day - friday through monday. i didn't want to allude to anything in too great of detail before it happened due to my newfound paranoia for our house, but i suppose it's ok now :)

friday started off great since i was off work :)
i got to spend time with my little cousins, that is not only one of my favorite things to do in the world, but also my aunt.
later that day, we went to one of our favorite sushi places, sakura. jason, our favorite chef, greeted us warmly and promptly made us a dragon roll and my [modified vegan] veggie roll. he's so sweet!
originally wanting to see machete, we opted to see something different since we'd rather see that in a group of friends. devil [the new m.night film] was our second choice. i was not super thrilled by the movie. without spoiling anything, it was one of your average good vs. evil movies in the most obvious of senses. brandon liked it, but then again, he's not too hard to please with movies :)

saturday was [apparently] cincinnati's first comic convention. we decided to go, and include our good friend dr. brian on said adventure. it was... fun. really, it was - but it wasn't something you could spend your whole day at. it was very much worth $7 though, and with the promise of coming back next year to a large convention space downtown, i'm sure that will be a lot more fun :) after leaving, we headed to whole foods so i could get a salad, and then to 5 guys for the men. we drew silly cards [that i should have taken a picture of!!!!!] and posted them on the wall there. we did, however, take a picture of this gem:

the husband and i spent the rest of the night watching movies and cuddling.

sunday was, of course, our anniversary :) i woke up early and made us [vegan] crepes. we spent a good part of the morning enjoying each other's company, and spending time with our puppy since we wouldn't see her that night. after being completely lazy and enjoying each other, we headed off to dinner at don pablos - who were very accommodating to my dietary needs, and had amazing margaritas! we took home a lot of food.

.. but also put a lot away :)

hey... it's only your anniversary once a year, right??
after a very lovely evening together, we enjoyed some tasty breakfast and set out to spend stupid amounts of money on our monday off.
that included, but is not limited to:

dressing pixie up like a taco [!!!]

a new shower curtain that totally kicks ass...

and salt+ pepper shakers for my little brudder :D :D

in other words, we had so much fun together on our extended weekend!
naturally, i have no desire to return to work tomorrow, but i have no choice. it's time to work on my neglected freelance now... wish me luck!
