TGIF! Weekend plans?
Today/tonight - run to get some painting supplies, finish prepping the living room for paint then out for drinks with kiahj and eventually my DH will join us.
Tomorrow - up bright and early to paint the living room. I've been wanting to do this for so freaking long and it's finally happening!!!!! I plan on busting myass because I want to get it all done in one day, woodwork included 
Sunday - out with friends. Not sure what we're doing, possibly some wine tasting, but hopefully we'll still be able to run to ikea for some stuff.
I also have to clean the house at some point, probably after I finish painting and get the living room somewhat livable again...
Re: TGIF! Weekend plans?
tonight: target, laundry, possibly making PW's malted chocolate chip cookies, and getting started on cinnamon bitters (holiday gifts). not sure what's for dinner, maybe i'll send DH to pick up thai.
tomorrow: gym, more laundry, getting stuff organized for our trip, and then meeting friends for dinner at cava.
sunday: packing for real, shellac manicure & a massage for me, chill time at home for DH, and chicken parm meatloaf & pasta for dinner (mostly so we can have leftovers before we head to the airport monday afternoon)
tonight: probably laundry, relaxing and maybe grocery shopping for Thanksgiving stuff
tomorrow: I have to work 8 hours in 2 different stores (I'm a demo person part time but work a full time job too), afterwards out to woodbridge for a game night with some friends.
sunday: I'm working 4 hours in fairlakes and then clean up the never ending mess of leaves that has managed to accumulate again in the yard.
Tonight: Thanksgiving party at daycare, then I'm babysitting a friend's newborn while she goes to see Twilight.
Tomorrow: Dropping DS off with my mom in the morning and then heading to the Eastern Shore for a wedding. It's my stepsister's, whom I don't know well, but it should be fun.
Sunday: picking DS back up in the morning, hanging out after his nap, and then going to America Eats Tavern for my brother's birthday in the evening.

Tomorrow: Going to the Spy Museum downtown, and to an Indian Restaurant for dinner
Mmm...
Sunday: Having thanksgiving with H's co-workers. It will be very odd...
Tonight - finish packing for our family trip, straighten up the house so I'm not embarrassed when the dog walker shows up, get to bed early.
Tomorrow - 6 AM flight (ugh) to Turks and Caicos (yay!). We're hoping to be on the beach by 2:30.
Sunday - sit on the beach. Read a book. Have a few drinks. Repeat.
Baby248 - ETA 1/10/13
Tonight -- maybe a work happy hour, then meeting DH for dinner. Maybe to the gym. I really should go, but am feeling 110% unmotivated. That's probably about it. Maybe some DVR.
Tomorrow -- Plans are basically to drink all day. Getting up and heading to Tysons to use a few coupons, then into DC for some barhopping, then to Zentan for dinner. I'm super excited. About the beer selections (district chophouse, gordon biersch and churchkey) and the dinner.
Sunday -- Brunch at VOLT, my belated bday fancy meal. Then relax for the rest of the day and start our Thanksgiving shopping lists, timeline, etc.
My Food Blog
Tonight- Making dinner, maybe watching Eclipse again before seeing Breaking Dawn, or maybe playing our new Lego Harry Potter game for the Wii.
Tom.- Errands in the morning, going to see Breaking Dawn, friend's b-day party in the evening.
Sunday- Church, little bit of grocery shopping (going light on the typical stuff because we'll need space for Thanksgiving foods), maybe cleaning if I get to it.
Planning Bio
I'm getting a haircut and manicure tomorrow
I also hope to cook a bit because I havent been doing much lately
Tonight: Currently watching TV with DH before he goes back to work. After he leaves, I'll watch a little more TV and hopefully finish my book.
Saturday: Haircut (hooray! I haven't had one since August), roller-skating party for our friend's daughter's 7th birthday (I don't know the last time I was on skates!), possibly dinner with friends after that
Sunday: visit another church in an attempt to settle on one before Advent, shop for Thanksgiving, go to Michael's for Christmas decor supplies.
Friday: Just got back from babysitting my niece and nephew. Also had a great lunch/talk with a friend and ran some errands.
Saturday: Pre-Thanksgiving cleaning, running the Herndon Turkey Trot in the afternoon, and probably seeing a band in the evening.
Sunday: More cleaning and house stuff, then venturing downtown to join another friend with impeccable taste to see the documentary "Being Elmo." An excellent precursor to "The Muppets" on Wednesday ...
