Happy Friday! Last weekend I got an incredibly random desire to try an olive color on my nails, which is something that I’ve never felt before. It’s a most excellent thing to have a friend like Melissa who not only has a large quantity of nail polish, but is also so willing to let me borrow them. So, with that said, here’s Essie sew psyched nail polish!

This is solidly a fall and winter color in my mind, and I love it! Green isn’t a color I’m used to seeing on my nails, so it’s been throwing me a little. I sort of wish I had thrown some silver glitter on my nails too, because I think that would have made it extra pretty! I put on two layers and the formula was thick enough to easily cover the nail in two coats!
Here are some random facts from the week:
1. Last weekend I went with Melissa on her hospital tour (she is due in just a few weeks! I’m so excited to not only have my running buddy back on the road with me, but also to have her little one join us once he gets old enough to hang out in the jogging stroller!), and the woman giving the tour started off by talking about people stealing babies. She said “If someone stole your baby we would tackle them”. We both had such a hard time keeping a straight face. I mean- someone getting their baby stolen is absolutely no laughing matter (it would be devastating), but starting a tour off that way was just… strange.
2. After the hospital tour we stopped at the farmers market where I got my favorite egg rolls (only one more week of farmers market 🙁 ), then stopped at Starbucks, and then stopped at Chick-fil-A. I made a most excellent meal out of it.
Looks like a delicious lunch, right?! 🙂
3. First fire of the season, and I absolutely loved it! It added coziness on a random day that was 47 as a high (what?! the day after was 76 as a high!).
4. Friday night I left work and headed to 5 Guys and ate dinner alone there while I graded tests for my class I’m teaching. I felt like a total nerd, but I had SO many hours of grading ahead of me, and wanted to get a start on it! Afterwards I met Melissa, her husband, and a few other people at the theater to see “The Martian”. It was honestly one of the greatest movies I’ve seen so far this year.
5. This quote! I’m almost done reading the book this quote came from (The Entitlement Cure) and am loving it:
6. It’s officially taper time! I celebrated with a massage this weekend!
Now it’s your turn to share! Share one random fact from the last week? Have you ever eaten at a restaurant on your own? Have you seen The Martian?
I really want to see The Martian. Hopefully my husband and I can figure out a day/time to leave Axel and have a little date. 🙂 Did you ever read the book?
