Just Chillin'


Welcome back skittles! We hope you enjoyed a wonderfully long Memorial Day weekend. As for the two of us, we enjoyed a fabulous weekend that started with margaritas on Saturday and ended with blogging and photo taking on Monday. But, as with everything else we do, there were definitely a lot of laughs and tragic people to discuss. So, let's begin.

Saturday
12ish pm - Put the top down on Princess and drove over to pick up Joe. We decided that margaritas were very necessary and bee-lined it to On The Border. Good 'ole On The Border never disappoints for either good margaritas or train wrecks to discuss. Since the former doesn't need describing (two words: Sangria Swirl) let's begin with the latter and tell you about our very excited waiter that brought us our guacamole on a leaf. A leaf... really? Did we run out of bowls in the kitchen? This same waiter also brought us our lunch. And, then didn't leave. He lingered awkwardly after making the obvious announcement that our food had arrived. Almost waiting for an invitation to join us and our guacamole leaf. Sorry, this is a BFF lunch only.

2:00 pm - Following a leisurely lunch we went to our favorite place... hello, Starbucks! But, as we were leaving we noticed the second tragedy of the day. Parked next to Princess was a ginormous black, over chromed Hummer. Now, we're all about some bling, but do the reflector lights really need chrome flames shooting out of them (we all know that Joe's car is really the only one that should be shooting flames). The observation immediately caused Joe to shout, "what did you win the lottery and not know how to spend your money?" Um, we could help.

2:30 pm - Two vienti Java Chip Light Frappuccinos with Mint (one with espresso and one without) later and we found ourselves on the patio at Starbucks being completely fabulous. However, we've learned that fabulousness comes with a price tag - it's called groupies. Being the good Starbuck-patron that he is, Joe has found that there is one particular employee that always seems a little over eager to shout out his name. I'm not kidding. We're sitting on the patio at Starbucks sipping our frappuccinos when this particular Starbucks employee suddenly shouts "Hi JOE!". Um.... uh... hi? {insert awkward pause} Now, resume normal conversation with Gracie. Let's move on.

Monday
10:45 am - There really were not tragic people on Monday, we just wanted to share with you how cute we are. You see, these outfits did not just happen. After a series of calculated wardrobe changes (approximately 12 between the two of us), we finally caught the same vibe. And, viola! Joe comes to pick me up for lunch at Panera and we're wearing similar outfits.



1:00 pm - With a Starbucks cup in both hands, we head back to my house to hang out and listen to music.

Yep, it has been a really stressful weekend, ya'll. Can't you tell? We might need to go to Starbucks one more time ;)
