There's a lot going on this weekend: Halloween, World Series, Marathon... What's on your plate?
Re: Plans for weekend?
TGIF!
I have a feeling with all of the festivities going on this weekend, DH and i will continue to fight whatever sick we're becoming. Boo.
Tonight; rehearsal dinner for our friend's wedding tomorrow night. It's at Da Nico in Little Italy. I need to rush home to shower and change. I had no energy this morning to make myself pretty...
And if we're feeling up to it, i'm sure there will be some late night drinks somewhere, possibly at another GMs apartment; he lives right across the street from the restaurant!
Tomorrow; clean our apartment before our friend from LA comes to stay with us for said friend's wedding. He's not sure when he's getting in (weird...) so DH and i will then chill, take a nap, get ready for the wedding. I'm sure DH has to be there before the ceremony (we don't know what time yet) so our friend and i will travel without him! And their venue is just north of the Halloween parade, so we have to give ourselves plenty of time. And it's a formal masquerade wedding! I'm so excited!!
Sunday; recoup!! And maybe brunch with friends that will be in from out of town. Return DH's tux. Nap.
Oh, and the NY Marathon runs right by our apartment so i'm sure we'll catch a bit on our way out and about on Sunday morning. And the friend that's staying with us is an amateur photographer so i'm sure he'll want to get some shots.

My Planning Bio
Finally! A Married Bio!!
Tonight, DH and I are going out to a bar in Long Island as Sandy and Danny from Grease.
Tomorrow we are going to chill and give out candy to trick or treaters (our house gets BOMBARDED with kids). Then we will either go out on Bell Blvd, or go see Paranormal Activity.
Sunday I am going to see a friend's play in Long Island. I think I am doing that by myself!
Tonight, we're going out for a friend's birthday in the city (I love going into the city these days, partially because that gives me a much needed break, partially because I'm not in the city constantly and have a chance to get a break from it too).
Tomorrow, we have Sasha's swimming lessons, then some sort of Halloween activity with the kiddo (hopefully meeting up with crazycrustacean for that).
Sunday, nothing really planned yet, but I think we may go over to DH's grandma's and then maybe my parents'.
Have a great weekend, ladies.

Happy Weekend ladies.
Tonight: DH's buddy and his family are visiting us from the UK. They are staying at a hotel but coming to see us since they usually stay with us. Maybe we'll go have dinner...
Saturday: I have laundry, and I am going to prime and paint the downstairs closet. I also have to go to Home Depot to make an appointment to carpet our bedrooms and to select a faucet for our new kitchen. Later, I plan to treat DH to Lobster on my first check from my new job.
Sunday: painting my primed porch, hopefully cooking...if that kitchen can ever be done!, relaxing...

Tonight: finishing our halloween costumes. well, that really means buying solid color shirts for our trekkie costumes and applying gold ribbon/thread for the accents. Cooking dinner - maybe inviting my friend over for dinner who's in the city for the weekend.
Tomorrow: I'd really like to go to the park in the morning with the pup for off-leash hours. we'll see how the weather goes. Tomorrow is crafty day! I need to make the name banner for my sisters baby shower, create some designs for the iron-ons for the onesie design activity for shower. We're going to be walking in the Park Slope halloween parade in the evening with the pup and in costumes and with our friends & their pups. Should be a lot of fun! maybe food and beer (well, not for me) afterwards. I'm thinking of making fondue!!!
Sunday: Going to cheer on the runners at the marathon. It goes right by our apartment! And then....not sure what we're doing the rest of the day. relaxing! maybe cooking the pumpkin I got from last week and some other yummy soups for freezing.
Happy Halloween! Everyone who is dressing up should take photos and be expected to post on Monday!
Tonight we are going out to dinner and bowling with our good friends.
Tomorrow we have to get up early, get haircuts, go to the chiropractor, get an oil change, and get blood work done. In the evening we too are going to a masquerade themed wedding in Brooklyn. That should be fun. DH?s good friend is getting married and he is excited to see all of his friends from growing up.
Sunday we are going to relax and possibly have friends over for dinner. We?ll see if that happens. Have a good weekend ladies!!
Sounds like everyone has wonderful plans!
Today: Doing laundry now, will clean the kitchen when I get off my lazy ass. hehe The hubby will be home at the usual time (4pm), but is heading back out for a overnight (OT) shift (needs to be back at work for 9pm), so I will be hanging out with the kitties tonight.
Tomorrow: Handing out candy to kiddies (my house gets bombarded as well)...I'll probably be out of candy in 20 minutes, like I was last year. =/ Afterwards, I'm meeting up with my sis, her kids and friends to do some trick or treating. I have cat ears and a tail I'll be wearing. And later on I'll meet up with DH's sis to see her little one and do some TorTing with them. The hubby will probably be sleeping all day due to his overnight shift.
Sunday: DH is heading to his cousins to put up a ceiling fan and I will probably just stay home and relax.
Have a wonderful weekend all. Happy Halloween!
Hah, such a cute bumble bee!
Tonight, I am catching up on TV since our big screen is finally fixed! Yay. In the end, Samsung decided to extend our warranty and came today replacing both the motherboard and the power supply for good measure. TV is working a-okay now.
Tomorrow: OMG must do laundry. It was a must-do last weekend and I didn't get to it so now I am in desperate need. I want to get some paintings reframed for the apt and maybe get some photos done as well. I want to get out to enjoy the weather. Not sure if we will have trick-or-treaters (since we moved in the week after Halloween last year) but I am prepared with a bit of stuff.
Sunday: DH is off to visit his friend for a few days. They will have manly time. That means girly time for me. Yippeee!
