Friday Favorites

May 6, 2011 by Kristy 10 Comments

I may do an easy run this afternoon since the weather is so nice and I’m really antsy to run again.

But for now, it’s Friday Favorites time!

Gossip Girl
I’m a little embarrassed to admit this one…yes, I love the show Gossip Girl.  It’s the ultimate guilty pleasure.  At least I have company.  My friend Michelle loves it just as much as I do.  We love Chuck Bass.  He’s got the best one-liners.  In fact, for my birthday a few years ago, I got this from Michelle…

Poor quality picture but it says "good Bass is hard to find". I love it.

Date Night
For Christmas this past year, Matt and I decided to plan “date nights” for each other instead of buying gifts.  My date night for him is tomorrow.  We plan on hanging with Hawk at a park, having lunch outside, and going to see The Airborne Toxic Event at the Trocadero on Saturday night.  Fun, fun, fun!

Hawk is thrilled to be included in date night

May Fun Runs
Since I don’t start officially training again until the end of May, I got nothing but fun runs scheduled until then.  All I have to do is maintain my base by running whatever distance I want at whatever pace I want.  So liberating.  I may even go sans Garmin!

This is a picture of a meerkat I took at the Taronga Zoo in Sydney. It makes me laugh every time I see it. Not sure what it has to do with fun runs though.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!  Happy Mother’s Day!

    Isn’t running ‘just for fun’ the best?? Especially when the weather is beautiful and the days are staying light later and later.

    What a fun idea to do ‘date nights’ instead of Christmas gifts. Who needs more ‘stuff’ anyway?

      The gift of spending time together far exceeds any material thing 🙂 That sounded mushy but it’s so true!
