Monday again! Hey there, hope everybody had a great weekend. I had a pretty good one myself even though it was not all that exciting... at all. And it rained a butt load which interfered with my tennis match on Sunday. This was especially disappointing because I had a little impromptu shopping trip on Friday night with bestie and got some super cute tennis outfits at the Maxx. My current tennis stuff is all pretty old and worn out and frankly getting loose. Yippee!!!!! The best reason in the world to have to buy new athletic gear right? Baggy Lycra is not flattering at all, not to mention dangerous when running all over the court. I prefer everything to be locked and loaded. So we hit T.J. Maxx for the win and I scored a Fila black lace skirt and top , Fila pleated skirt and gorgeous Nike Maria Sharapova top with mesh inserts, straps and leather like look (retail $65.00) all for under eighty bucks. Seriously, these are bargains considering all of the Fila stuff would be close to $50 for each piece. Super cute huh? A splurge but  I kind of feel like investment in a healthy lifestyle is a good one.

Speaking of healthy we promptly blew it after shopping by stopping at Texas Roadhouse for a beer and some snacks. Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. We made poor choices food wise and honestly it wasn't great. Rattlesnake Bites were like little jalapeno balls of death and made me want to rip my tongue out of my mouth because it was on fire. The onion was no where near as good as it sounded. We are famous for bad choices but what I really learned is that I think/know my tastes are evolving a little. I would have been so much happier with a salad and maybe some blue cheese dressing and croutons as a splurge. The fried crap was just plain shitty. But the beer and company were good!

As for the rest of the weekend I got some things done around the house, grilled some stuffed portobello mushrooms, made an awesome corned beef in the crock pot, did a bunch of laundry, watched more HOC and some bad lifetime movies and just generally lazed around. I got a shiny new coffee pot cause mine finally completely died and after 3 days without I realized I can't quit coffee just yet! Twas a good weekend. Looking forward to some big things this week, hopefully. I think I am going to stop talking about them before they happen though. So stay tuned... and the freaks were definitely out on POF this weekend so I should have a few good ones for you this week. No dates... I seem to have come across more talkers here lately. Lame guys, it's very, very lame. Ask a girl out why don't ya? Actually that's not entirely true, I was invited to go turkey hunting on Sawnee Mountain at the (and I quote) "ass crack of dawn" Saturday morning. He even offered to let me shoot while he called. I declined. But there is always next weekend!

Hope everyone has a fabulous Monday!

Linking up with the beautiful Biana...


  1. No one needs to wear stretched out lycra! Plus you've been losing all that weight and need to buy some new outfits I'm sure!

  2. I love those new tennis outfits! Super cute!

  3. TJ maxx always has great work out clothes! That's my go to whenever I need new outfits for the gym.

  4. um, going into a secluded forest to "hunt" using whatever you shoot turkeys with, with a stranger? RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, BITCH!! that's not a first date thing; that's more like a month-into-dating-each other thing when you actually know his full name, address, height, age, address, friends/family names, occupation, place of employment and you can give all of this info to the police and your best friend just in case you happen to go missing while "turkey hunting". I'd say LOL but i'm serious about this (LOL!).

    also, quitting coffe? i do not compute.

  5. Oh girl your new tennis outfits have me itching to play!! Love them!! xo, Biana - BlovedBoston

  6. Texas Roadhouse - wow - haven't been there in forever. My son used to have an obsession with that place, and it was the only place we would go out to eat... Not complaining - but it's been awhile!!!!!!

    And new athletic gear? YES yes and YES. Even when I don't need it, I still buy it - - - The cuter I look when I work out - the better I feel. So weird.

  7. You are making me want to go out and buy a bunch of tennis skirts!! I wonder if I could get away with it. I only play a bit with my husband on the weekends :)

  8. Awesome workout gear deals! That's a good investment.

    I had Doritos Sunday. I felt like total shit. I'd rather have more real food that's not that good for you (dressing, some cheeses, etc) than gross processed crap.

  9. Having to buy new clothes because everything is too big is a good problem to have, worth the expense. Fried food always makes me need a nap!

  10. That is score on workout gear!! Also I love buying new workout clothes. Just the best.

    I know you say you didn't make the best choices in meals but hey its one weekend. :)
