Over the Week(end)...

Holy cow it's August! Please excuse the excessive amount of photos today, I thought I would do something slightly different and show what I've been up to for the past week. Why is it that everything gets crammed into the summer? Winter seems to slowly pass by, while summer goes at an alarming rate, so much to do. Anyway, last week was one of those weeks that was just crazy, lots of doing things and not much blogging. Top to bottom, left to right, play by play:


The Swapaholics and respective male companions attended Stuff Magazine's Hot 100 party, where we made friends with some very fantastic boys in very fantastic outfits (I wore a blue dress, undocumented).

Wednesday brought with it the Best of Boston party at the Boston Cruise Terminal. I also received some new shoes (I'm dying) in the mail (check back tomorrow for my outfit).

Thursday night we sent to Sea Chanties at the local cafe after-hours (exactly what it sounds like- singing old sea chanties and drinking with friends).

Friday I forced myself to have some of the day off (a difficult thing to do) and went to the Chihuly exhibit at the MFA. It was amazing and refreshing to see art made for beauty alone, without a deep concept (perhaps this is a longer post in the future). my favorite piece was the Ikebana boat, and I wanted to lick all of it.

I even had time that night to clean out my closet in preparation for the next day's Swap Uncapped (more on that later). I was so happy to spend the day with some amazing ladies.

Sunday was spent in true relaxation mode. I took a tour of the local light-house, and watched the lobster boat races with three very good friends. Went to a car show and ate barbeque with a handsome soon-to-be-husband (!). and ended the day attempting to make wedding decorations with some very curious and disruptive kitties.


Also, also: today our wedding is officially 20 days away!
