Today was not just any lazy Saturday. It was the official move out day downtown as well as graduation. Erika decided to take a sublet for the summer with a friend next to James Madison Park, so today she packed up a box of my cleaning supplies with loads of stuff taken from my bathroom and then asked me to take her grocery shopping as well! I decided to unload 4 bags of groceries I had lying around-- lots of pasta, crackers and cereal that I can't eat and I'm not even sure why I have. I gave her a bag of paper plates, towels, napkins and plastic ware and off she went to clean her new place up. She will finish moving out tomorrow but it will make for an interesting summer. I have a feeling I will end up seeing her just as much between her needing to do laundry and wanting to eat for free.
My Saturday was very leisure. I got some cleaning and shopping in, but not a lot. I worked on my mom's album a bit more and did some calendar organizing with Monika. I gave her a list of chores I'd like her to accomplish this next week. I wanted to get to a yoga class but I got two good walks with Balt now that he is feeling better. I can tell the swelling is way down and I have yet to see any oozing at all. Once it is all healed, he will certainly have a distinguished look.
We met up with Erika later in the evening downtown for a concert at the Orpheum. I decided I wanted to start going to more concerts, so when I saw Chevelle was in town, I got tickets for Erika, Monika and me. Erika is a fan of The Used (one of the openers) and Monika ended up likeing The Marmozets (the other opener). It was a super a fun night out with the girls (we just needed Jessi & she would have come in handy when the mosh pit started). We saw three bands in five hours and I found out that Monika likes to camp out up front and watch as close as possible. It meant getting bumped into occasionally but made for a much more fun experience than just sitting in seats the whole night.
