First off, HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE SISTER CHELSEA!
Yesterday was my birfday. 26. Yes, my sister and I have birthdays on consecutive days. And I’m old. But it was a good one, and thanks for all of the birthday wishes! Got some cheap Wild tickets for Saturday night’s Wild vs. Flyers game. Heading down there with the roomie, Elle J. and Molly Mayhem. We’ll be hanging in my office pre-game, probably at our fave, Eagle Street, post-game, so if you’re down there, make sure you say hi! Know what else the big 26 means? Time to update the Bucketlist. And I have a bucket of things to add. Get excited, and stay tuned for that one tomorrow.
It is freezing outside. So cold that my fingers are forgetting how to type. And my rings are all too big. You know that it’s cold when your fingers shrink! Which makes me thankful for:
1. A furnace.
2. Remote car start.
3. Heated garage.
And reminds me to donate auction items to the Person to Person event to end homelessness. Not having a home would be terrifying, but it would be even worse in this kind of weather. And if you want to attend the event, it is taking place on April 29th at the hottest new spot in NE Minneapolis, Lush Food Bar! I say that with the disclaimer that I have never been there, so I can’t vouch for it, but it LOOKS cool. And it’s gotten decent reviews on Yelp, which makes me want to check it out that much more…
I want to go to Hotel Atlantis and go down the water slide that goes through the shark tank. Just sayin’. This Minnesota cold is getting to me.
I read this article about water consumption. It said that if you already drink a lot of water, drinking more water won’t help to keep your skin more hydrated. But if you don’t already drink a lot of water, upping your intake to the recommended 8 glasses per day WILL help keep your skin more hydrated. And this girl drinks caffiene all day. A glass of water in the morning and a bottle of water at the gym. But other than that? Literally. Coffee and Diet Coke all day. Challenge: to incorporate a full 64 ounces of water into my daily regimen. We’re on day three, and so far, so good. I’ll keep you posted on the results, which could be amazing. Or not so much, if I fall off the bandwagon.
Superbowl Sunday in t-minus-four-days! I am not as excited as I should be. Still bitter that our Minnesota Vikings aren’t in it! That being said, I lurve the fleur de lis symbol, so I suppose I’m rooting for the Saints. Now I just need to come up with a fab appetizer to bring to my Mansion Superbowl Party (MSP) on Sunday. Suggestions encouraged. Hint, hint.
LUSH looks really cool! I might have to go check it out this weekend!
Cortney! No! Don’t cheer for the Saints! They hurt our precious Favre! On Sunday I am a Peyton Manning fan, but only one day only.
