The Freakin’ Weekend

So, tell me what you’re up to this weekend! I’m going to a military ball (HIGHLY FANCY), hitting IKEA pretty hard, having a grand total of two (2) brunches with friends, and then heading out to Las Vegas to see Cirque du Soleil and lose a bunch of money on blackjack. I’ll be out of town for eight whole glorious days, and I couldn’t be more excited.

Getting Out: Cincinnati

Despite the fact that Kentucky is the South and Ohio is the Midwest, we share a lot of border. I’m talking a lot. Cincinnati is only about ninety minutes away from Louisville, so I go there sometimes, just for kicks.

I am usually morally opposed to going to Ohio, because what do they have that I don’t, other than IKEA and some pro sports teams? Admittedly, those are some pretty big things to not have, but I also discovered they have some OTHER stuff that I like/want.

There is some amazing art deco architecture and the like, some beautiful museums, great food, and all kinds of stuff like that. All in all, it wasn’t at all what I was expecting from the third largest city in Ohio. A lot of people gave me amazing suggestions, and I followed them accordingly.

I'm ready to climb up this ladder and out of my office. Yes, my office has a skylight.

Hey, what are you doing this weekend? I’m taking some Hydrorider classes, making these cool silhouette eggs (check back with me tomorrow for the post!), and having Sunday brunch with my friends out in Germantown. I’m going to have a late-afternoon hike in Radcliffe before visiting Stephanie and Ben! Tell me what you’re planning to do! Tell me if you want to come do stuff with me!

Oscar can’t move if you put anything on him, like, say, a scarf.

If you’re in Kentucky and so inclined, you could come to one of my events AND learn how to garden and square dance at the same time.
