Ramblings of a Redhead: we work hard all week...

so we can do so many activities on the weekends!

My man and I only get to see each other 1-2x a week, so we make sure to plan some fun activities when we do hang out. Last weekend was no different. After a quick sit down with a bunch of clowns, I met up with the PharmAnimal to get our weekend on.

We started our date night at our favorite Sushi place in town, Basho. We ordered some extra dirty martinis to start with extra olives on the side to get the night on. Then we moved on to a beer for Nate and a wine for me and some delicious spicy/crunchy spider roll thing for me and duck for Nate.

I had never tried duck before, and to my surprise, it was actually amazingly tasty. We topped dinner off with a ~~romantically~~ shared a crème brulee.

Instead of gazing lovingly into each other’s eyes, feeding bites to each other, and professing our undying love for each other, we fought for every last bite like starving wildebeests, clanking spoons and viciously grabbing the dish from one another. But hey, that’s how we roll :)

Our next feat was to move the car from one garage to another and change into hockey-game appropriate clothing. It was easy for me-- I threw on Nate’s sweater-jacket thing. However, this feat was a little more interesting for Nate. He rocked a SEXY outfit to work that day including dress pants and a tie and he needed to throw on some jeans and a zip up. Figuring the bottom floor of the parking garage was a safe haven to change his outfit, he started to undress. However, mid-bottom-half-change, an entire family of Asians happened to walk by. Not only did they walk by, they walked by with HUGE smiles on their faces waving.

Once we got the show on the road, we re-parked, hopped in a cab, and headed over to BU for the hockey game. We had sweet second row seats and saw BU roast UMass Lowell.

After the game, Nate deemed it “too busy and hard” to find a cab home and decided to walk from Agganis to Longwood. Not a terrible walk at all if you had the proper cold-weather attire on, but Nate told me I would be fine at the game with just his zip up on because we would “grab a cab there and back.” Eh, I was a few drinks into the night and easily convinced. I forgot the one of the side affects of drinking and breaking the seal too early was peeing incessantly for the remainder of the night. About halfway through our walk back, my jealousy started raging when I saw Nate pull over to pee. Some people vomit when they see other people vomit and I am the same way with urination. I tried holding it so hard but knew that I had a 5 minute window to either pee or pee myself. We walked through the mansions of Brookline for a bit until I found a suitable ~~urination station~~ pile of snow. I asked Nate to kindly stand in front of me to block. However, as soon as I assumed the position, the PUNK decided it would be funny push me, already frozen from the walk – BARE ASS—into the snow. I was so mad I lost my urge to pee and needed to get back to the car ASAP.

The next morning we were up bright and early to start our day. The Hunnies had a game in NH (which we won… 5-game winning streak OMG) and we were planning on going snow boarding after, so we stopped at Play it Again Sports to check out equipment. After being an annoying, prissy girl, only looking at “cute” boards that would match my snow bunny outfit, I finally got off my high horse and settled for a cheap board and boots that were the right size and amazing price. The board is not the most adorable thing I have ever seen, but I do have a scarf to match the green on it.

When we got to my house before the game, Foxy suggested we forgo our trip to the mountain because there was freezing rain on the way. Foxy knows best, so we skipped boarding and realized it was a lovely day for a Guinness and went to the Irish Cottage for dinner with my parents. After delicious eats, we got my parents involed in their first game of Cranium ever it was fab.
