Let me just start this off by saying out much I LOVE 3 day weekends.
I think every weekend should be 3 days, it is the perfect amount of time to rest after 4 days of working… why can’t this happen?
THREE day weekends people VOTE FOR THAT in November.
Anyways, Friday started off magical being that CK and I finally had a day off together for the first time in over a month! I miss getting to hang out with that knucklehead on the weekends since he is always working now. We decided that we would wake up, go to the gym, go to the movies (we finally saw The Hunger Games!), then maybe some shopping, and finally to his show at the Hard Rock for Happy Hour that night. All went as planned except CK has been a little under the weather so he didn’t go to the gym since he had to sing later (but I went!) and we didn’t have time for shopping and instead had our first Froyo bar experience which did not disappoint. I have told CK about Froyo and bloggers for a few months now (to which he tells me he does not remember) and how much I have wanted to go because:
1. I like trying everything in small amounts
2. I like to make my own “creations”
and
3. I freaking love Froyo.
We walked over to Peaks which was right by the movie theater after watching The Hunger Games (which did not disappoint it was heartbreaking wonderful and I may even like Peeta a little more now) and once inside CK got really confused. I swear this place didn’t really have signs either and if he would have gone in without me he would have probably just left or gotten $65.00 worth of Froyo. In any case once I figured out where to start the fun began. CK has a PROBLEM with sweets and the sheer SIZE of the buckets you had to choose from where awful! Their “small” bucket was better than a PINT… HUGE. Of course CK had to fill his up… and the whole time I’m like you have to pay for the weight of it…. Meanwhile he keeps loading on chocolate chips and strawberries and eating some every once in awhile and I’m like “You’re Stealing stop eating!” I’m thinking that by the time we go to pay its going to be over $20.00… but I was pleasantly surprised! Only $9.96 for both.
I tried out Pistachio, Cheesecake, and Red Velvet Froyo with a variety of toppings.
Meanwhile the beast got Chocolate and Strawberry Froyo with God knows what.
All in all it was pretty good but I want to see what other stores have to offer us. So now, we plan to hit these up every time we see one because I have finally gotten CK on board with the program!
What happens next is all Nicks fault. I blame him for everything.
We had to leave Peaks and head to downtown Seattle for CK’s Hard Rock as soon as we got finished because he has to be playing from 5pm-8pm during happy hour. Now, since it is now Spring and beautiful outside in Sunny Seattle (yes, I’m going there…it doesn’t rain nearly as much as everyone in the freaking world that has never even been here thinks) happy hour is now at the rooftop bar! It overlooks Pikes Place and the sound and is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
The bar was so crowded that for a few moments Jared, Nick, and myself had to stand because there were no open seats. (luckily this changed after about 5 minutes) After we settled in Nick wanted to do shots of jager and that’s where everything went downhill. I don’t know what got into me but I agreed and to make a long story short: I made several new friends, got extremely inebriated, almost broke my phone, and this was all before 8pm.
Jared & the bad influence.
CK doing his thing
Once the show was over our party minus Jared (because of stupid work boo!) and plus a new friend (Jen I think is her name??) moved to another bar where I danced in a booth and was told I could only have water to drink. Well, ladies and gents that’s the ONLY thing I wanted in the first place so Nah. I do have to say that this might be the KEY to getting quick service at this bar… I have NEVER gotten water and food as quickly as I did that night. (Note to self) I don’t really recall that much after well, leaving the Hard Rock but from what I am told it was a pretty fun night. I blame Nick with everything in my soul because I never take shots especially of Jager and it’s just simply all his fault. This all lead to a very interesting morning…. I had a yoga and wine tasting date at 11am the next day with my girl Angela… ehh... I bet you can only imagine how prepared I was for that.
