Holiday Weekend

I've had the best holiday weekend. I took part of Friday off work to just relax(original plans to visit family fell through when swine flu hit their house). I took the best nap on Friday afternoon and was even able to get some reading in after my nap. I still have 3 books to post about, and really plan to do so tomorrow. On Saturday, college football season began in Tennessee. Went over to a friend's house to watch the awesome TN Vols game, only to get home in time to watch Vandy blow-out their first game of the season too. With the Titan's win at home on Thursday night for their final pre-season game, it is FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE!

Today I got to see the play Wicked at TPAC in Nashville with some of my family. I love, love, love seeing Broadway plays, and have to say that Wicked is now one of my favorites ever! Must read the book the play is based on the play at some point in the future. Had a wonderful birthday dinner for Jenny(honorary aunt) at Kobe's and now I'm kicked back reading and watching The Sound of Music on ABC Family. The fact that I own the movie on dvd and could totally watch it without commercials is not lost on me, but it is just one of those movies I have to watch anytime it comes on tv.

I really haven't made any plans for my day off tomorrow, and really think the only plans I'm going to think about is spending my whole day reading. I haven't taken a day just to read in such a long time, and I'm looking forward to sleeping in and then spending the day reading in my pajamas. Hoping everyone else has had an awesome holiday weekend!

Hey Liza, your weekend sounds really relaxing. I hope the fam is feeling better. I love TSoM too. I am like you. Julie Andrews is just plain amazing. I haven't seen "Wicked," but I heard some wonderful things about it. I think that the day you have planned on your day off sounds wonderful. Similar to the one I have planned. Happy reading!!!

Peace and love,
Paula R.

I've seen Wicked twice, and loved it each time. I'm glad you got to enjoy it.

Your day sounds like mine, though I'm playing on the computer now. But reading is the plan for the day :)

Reading is on the schedule as soon as I finish checking blogs. Of course the NCIS marathon on USA is just a bonus for my day off.

I love NCIS and am so ready for the new season and the new show NCIS-Los Angeles too. Bonus, ABC is showing 3 hours of Castle tonight too. Another one of my favorite shows.
