How was your weekend?
What did you do? What is/was your reaction to Whitney Houston's death?
Re: How was your weekend?
We ran errands, did chores, unpacked boxes. Nothing remotely interesting occurred.
My reaction to Whitney's death was: meh.
My weekend wasn't exciting. Just did wine and a movie Saturday night, did a lot of cooking/baking and stocked up on produce at Sam's Club.
My autobiography would be pretty boring! LOL
I figured it was just a matter of time before Whitney pushed herself over the edge. I didn't feel the shock that the media expects everyone to feel about her early death.
We did some wine tasting and not a whole lot of anything yesterday. It was a pretty boring weekend for us as well.
I was surprised to hear about Whitney, although not totally surprised after the intial what??!
My weekend was really good, but I'm already about to fling myself out a window, only 3 hours into the work week. Last night I actually dreamed about one of the hellacious reports I knew was waiting for me today and woke up wishing I was sick or had some legit reason to call out.
Friday night we went out for our Valentine/anniversary date and it was sooo good! (http://hugos.net/main.html) Really delicious food and a nice atmosphere. Sunday morning I went to two yoga classes taught by friends (one of whom was BBE), then breakfast with a few of the girls and then did some exploring with Mr. Bang and the little dude.
RE: Whitney, I wasn't surprised, really. She's been a hot mess for years. It's really a shame.
Hola.
The weekend was good. Had a Vday dinner at a really delicious restaurant (the filet was like butter). Went to a casino and lost moneys.
I was only shocked about Whitney's death when I read that she was only in her late 40's. Wayyyy too young.
Weekend was busy, but nothing exciting to report. lol.
Did a TON of things around the house, ran a bunch of errands, and had a lazy Sunday. Cant really complain.
Whitney's death - Im pretty "meh" about it. Maybe my opinion is flame worthy, but I dont necessarily feel sorry for her, nor do I feel she was the greatest gift to us, I dont get the need to elevate celebrities to god like status. I understand the mechanics of addiction in that it is a disease, but the other part of me feels like she should have busted her @ss 10x harder to get it together because she's a mom, and she needs to be here for her daughter. Then there's the whole waste of talent and throwing away all the blessings and opportunity she had, and well - its a mixed bag of opinion. I think I feel worse for her daughter who lost a mom so young. What a shame.
