Beware the Ides/All of March

It’s been a stressful couple of weeks at work for both Cath and I. We come home late and a bit grumpy; grumpy we don’t have time to catch up with our girls for frozen yogurt, grumpy we can’t see our men folk as much as we like, and especially grumpy that we don’t have much energy for blogging.

Well, this work week is more of the sameย but we had a much needed break this past weekend visiting one of my besties in Charleston!

(That’s my bestie to the left looking like a GQ model. That’s me on the right looking like an over zealous talk show host interviewing a GQ model).

Now normally I don’t like to have facebook-y photos of us up on the blog. We really have no desire to bore our readers with our social going-ons that we might find exciting, but you all might find repetitive (smily group photo #547, etc.). All that said, this is the stuff that keeps me from becoming Jack Nicholson in The Shining (all work and no play. le scary).

Any other Charleston fans out there? Outside of our beloved Decatur/ATL, Charleston, Savannah and New Orleans are our favorite dirty south locations to be in. We spent the weekend drinking margaritas, eating delicious food, watching Alice and Wonderland, going to a drag show, and driving around downtown Charleston with the sunroof open and Lady Gaga on the radio.ooo-la, ooo la la!

We hope you all had equally wonderful weekends, and are successfully avoiding Julius’ Caesar’s darkest day. Come March 15, I’m keeping my head down. or heading back to Charleston.
