What I did this weekend:
Saturday: I had a free ticket to the Friends of the Cleveland Public Library benefit, and got dressed up, made up, and enjoyed myself. Heck, I even scored on the street free parking! Because I'll be asked: I wore my white wool suit with a $7 Old Navy silk shell in red that I had to run out and buy. I have lost weight because that suit was not comfortable in February when I wore it to the bank conference. Genevieve, I did the full Sephora makeup and my eyes did pop, even with my inexpertly applied eyeliner.
I ran into someone I knew from library school, saw a preservation demonstration and watched a librarian make miniature books, and got my handwriting analyzed. The graphologist was spot on--a bit scary.
Sunday: 3 hours of Sunday were killed by driving out to Petsmart, but the end result is good: Calcutta got adopted! I'm down to 4 cats! Praise the Lord! Thank you, St. Francis! Poor Bombay was very quiet in the carrier coming back, and I let her out she ran around the living room and cried. She's adjusting. Then I cleaned. Oh, and I called the cops on the neighbors. Sorry, but setting off firecrackers at 1 am is a bit much. Take your party inside, please.
Today I have moved stuff out of my bedroom in preparation for my Ikea trip tomorrow, and done laundry. Now I'm off to Home Depot.

Wow - your weekend sounds way more exciting than mine, despite the fact that you say I do more than you. (I got my haircut, ate Afghani food, and tried Capoeira.)
I'm sure you looked fab on Saturday night and congrats on Calcutta being adopted, although I'm sorry her sister was all sad and lonely.
