Two days off.
I feel like all I've been doing lately is (1) waking up and thinking 'I have to work this afternoon, (2) getting very little accomplished while anticipating my work day, (3) going to work until 11, and (4) getting home and thinking 'I'm so sleepy, I should do nothing.'
But now I have two days to stretch my legs and reunite with some friends. So, its 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and I'm still in my pajamas.
I did however get a chance to check out Maxwell Street Days here in Madison, which is a giant tent sale that extends from the capitol square to the end of State Street. I wish I hadn't worked all weekend so that I would have had more of a chance to scope out some fabulous deals, but all in all I think I picked up a few nice things (thank you Urban Outfitters 'Extra 50% off all markdowns' sale). Really I ended up with some housewares items and a few scarves; I didn't really even look at clothes, it was waaaaaay out of control around those bins. And honestly, stuff was either whacked out and already in the 'DON'T' column, or still too pricey for a printed tank top. Overall, though, I was pleased.
Now I will take a break from the couch and the numerous NASA programs airing today (LOVE) and get some "fresh" air. (Why must it be so gloomy lately? And also, how long will I have to breath in the pulverized concrete that has been straining my lungs since spring?)
p.s. not my photo! in the frenzy of the hunt I failed to snap a picture, so I was forced to borrow this one. Thanks, althouse.
