Scares, Hair, and What to Wear

This weekend kicked off with a Friday the 13th, which I love because I enjoy catching old Jason movies on TV. While I unfortunately wasn't home to watch any of these wonderful slasher flicks, I did get to go out and celebrate both a friends graduation from UNM and a Friday the 13th Block Party in the Bricklight District. After only having a few beers I somehow woke up with a hangover on Saturday morning : (. This is becoming more and more of a regular occurrence, these hangovers. I'd like to at least have the thrill of getting drunk if I'm going to be hungover.

Saturday I did some shopping in hopes of finally finding a black dress to wear for my friend Courtney's upcoming wedding.While I had no such luck, I did manage to score a couple new, cute, non-black dresses. After that I went and got my hair cut and hi-lited (hi-lit?) at the Aveda school. I got some pretty cute new bangs just in time for a trip I'll be taking up to Washington in about a week and a half. I love going there! I've been lucky enough not to have one of the students screw up my hair and I pay about a third of what I'd pay at a normal salon. I highly recommend checking it out for those of you looking for a cheaper option.

Not too much else to report except that I actually ran a full mile last week! I don't think I've run a mile since I had to in high school so this is a huge accomplishment for me. I absolutely HATE running but was glad a couple of my friends dragged me out because I felt amazing afterwords and the resulting soreness wasn't nearly as bad as I feared. Now I just need to get on a schedule, which is of course impossible right now since I'm heading out of town this week and the next. Sigh.
