My free weekend didn't come out to be quite as epic as I might've hoped, but it was pretty relaxed-and-groovy, at least!
Saturday was pretty uneventful, largely because I didn't have my car. I barely made it through wushu, because my body was SO tired and sore, and I spent most of the day sitting around. Sometime after 9pm, I got tired of working on photos and web stuff, so after trying in vain to get Serafin and our current CSer to go to a show I'd heard about, I *finally* convinced them to come out for some karaoke.
The Hutch was neither the best nor the worst place I've gone for karaoke, but it does have the benefit of being up the street from my place, so it was an easy sell. The crowd was pretty friendly, not too big, and generally picked great songs, BUT the songbook was separated into A-K and L-Z, which was irritating. I closed out the evening with Livin' On a Prayer, which was awesome, but also totally killed my voice. XD
I slept like crap on Saturday night (despite not drinking a drop of alcohol at karaoke), so I spent most of Sunday hanging around the house in a fog, and tidying things when I could muster the energy. I did hit up this cute little coffee/comics shop that's also in the neighborhood, though, and it was pretty cool. We also watched The Graduate and found a really rad James Bond poster for some yet-to-be-determined room in the house.
I'm still tired today. Booooo. I've been sleeping really fitfully, and I don't know if it's stress, or need for a new bed, or whatever else. Thing is, I don't really have a lot to be stressed about right now; it's almost like I'm stuck in that state after being so flipped-out and busy over the past few weeks. I'm getting a massage after work today, so I can get rid of stress and soreness, and hopefully get some friggin' sleep tonight.
