Ugh, what a weekend, nicely topping off our week. So the week honestly was not terrible, but we slacked off too much considering that we need to be sharpening our focus rather than slacking. So the stress and struggles this past week mostly involved our own inner demons. I hope none of our classmates are reading this admission of weakness!!! If you are in our class, though, how do you know this post isn't just a clever trick!? HA!
Seriously though we had a rough week, and then this weekend came. We have our first law school event requiring suits this coming week, and Danielle didn't have a suit, so we decided to go shopping. K & G has a suit sale going on, and Buy One Get Two Free sounded like a sweet deal. Unfortunately the only K & G stores are outside of the city, but we figured we could use a drive to clear our heads. Well the first store we found on Google was in King of Prussia. It turned out to be closed, as in no longer in existence! So right there we wasted about 40 minutes in traffic driving out to King of Prussia. From there we found another store using my phone, and you can bet we called first to make sure it was actually a store. It was, but it took another half hour to find. Once at the store, to make a long story short, the sale was a bait and switch and Danielle got no suits yet spent about two hours shopping for them. So poor Rory & Danielle, heartbroken and frustrated and suitless (except Rory got his suits), got some delicious Cold Stone to cheer themselves up!
Unfortunately, after the Cold Stone the drive home took about 45 minutes, and so what was supposed to be an afternoon of shopping and an evening of homework turned into a wasted day. We did go grocery shopping after getting home last night, so we finally have food in our apartment again. We also had the chance to clean and do laundry on Friday night. AND we went to the Ides of March with some great new law school friends. That movie was seriously great. Go see it.
So all-in-all the weekend was probably a wash. What's more, today we went to Macy's and got D a supafly suit, instead of three cheap, crappy suits from
K & G, which sucks. Macy's is sooo much cooler and awesomer.
So it is true that I bought two suits from K & G yesterday, but it was just because I felt bad because that place sucks so much:)
Anyway...the Vikings won today, I guess, which is nice. So between Friday and Saturday the weekend was a wash, but then Danielle got an awesome suit today, and the Vikings won, therefore decent weekend overall. I will leave you with this vision that Danielle glimpsed today: a woman sitting on her stoop in West Philly, with gold hoop earrings and a pink bathrobe on, talking to her neighbor, at 2:30 in the afternoon. Also, go see The Ides of March.
