My apologies!!!

I realize that I was MIA yesterday....but I have a very good reason folks.

My absolutely dearest bff is in town from Europe for only 2 weeks...of which I only get to see her 4 times. Not nearly enough time....!!

So yesterday she arrives at my house by 10am and we spend some much needed quality time together catching up. Absolutely delightful! We then proceed to have brunch with my mom which was also fabulous. From there we go downtown to see the George Stroumboulopoulos show. What an experience people! I thoroughly enjoyed it...so much so....that I definitely am going to go see another show...live!! This guy is as sharp as a tack man. Super super savvy.....he knows what's going on!! He was interviewing Peter Mansbridge....also an incredible person. After the taping of the show....George stuck around to answer questions and take pictures. Now...my bff....happens to have a superlative crush on this guy. I was hoping she could take a pic of George and I.....but I could see she could barely hold the camera...lmao!!! She also got his autograph...lol!!! Get this....she invited him to join us for drinks...lol!!! He said he would try......ya right! She believed him and we almost had to plan the rest of the evening based on the notion that he could very well show up!!!! Love you girl.....but NO WAY!!!!

So after pics were shot and autographs were given...the girl and I go to the first bar called Paese on King...for some wine and snacks. MMMMM!!!! So great!!! I would totally post some pics...but they are on my girl's camera...and I have to wait for her to upload them. We were there for a couple hours.....4 glasses of wine and a pizza later....we move onto the next bar where we were supposed to meet the rest of the team. Well...it seems that my bff doesn't do her homework when planning events....cause she chose a bar that was closed yesterday. LOL  So we had to communicate to her team that we were going to all meet somewhere else; this bar is called Brasaii and it is absolutely amazing. So so so beautiful and just friggin awesome. Definitely a repeat. After a couple glasses of wine there....we move on to the next bar called The Hideout. Another kick ass bar. My goodness.....3 for 3 man! Good times! We camped out there for the rest of the evening. There was a dude playing guitar singing whatever you wanted to hear. So great! Got him singing some STP, some sublime, some Bob......all the while...I was gettin down on the dance floor, sometimes all by myself...LOL...sometimes with a team member.

My bff and I capped off the evening with some much needed street meat...at least for me, she had a veggie dog...lol! Then it was off to bed.

How do I feel on this fine sunny morning? Slightly hungover....but in great spirits!

So great to have you home sunshine!!!!! See you this weekend!
