Only Eight Steps Away…

So, basically….I’m tired.

Me. (Kindly disregard frozen vegetables alongside my face.)

This doesn’t happen to me often, but I’ve had a long week: Dallas all last weekend, busy work week + various nighttime activities, (Tuk Tuk for lunch + La Pietra Cucina for drinks + Murphy’s for dinner + Jersey Shore finale yesterday), and Park 75 for lunch today…it kind of goes on and on and on.  I am tired AND full.  All I want to do tonight is RELAX.  (That word always reminds me of Zoolander…)

Derelict. Derelict.

Anyway, to all of you going out to do something fun tonight – please enjoy yourselves.  For anyone staying at home like me, you might find the rest of this post useful.  Here are my eight steps to total-and-complete-staying-home-on-a-Friday-night BLISS:

Step 1- First, I am going here to get a move on ‘Kanye’s Workout Plan’:

Okay, not really. L.A. Fitness.

Step 2- Then, I need to quickly run to the grocery.  In case you didn’t know, I’m an excellent + quite efficient grocery shopper, as evidenced below:

Register Total = Priceless?

I'm good with carts.

Step 3- I shall pick up one of these bad boys:

Step 4- And, a bottle of Charlie:

Step 5- I may whip up some of these if I’m feeling crazy.  It would make for a nice little Friday night…but I don’t know if I’ll have time:

Comb-over cupcakes = a Lindsay + Lauren specialty

Step 6- I plan to park myself on one of these:

minus Oprah + T. Cruise, naturally

Step 7- And, I’m going to start watching Season One of THIS on Slick’s mom’s recommendation (so excited):

Step 8- The best part of it all is that I am going to be puppy-sitting for this angel:

Guinness!!

(It’s okay to be jealous.)  I’ve actually started watching the clock now.  I can’t even pretend that I’m not excited to stay home on a Friday night – I honestly just can’t.  The music is already playing in my head, “tonight is going to be a good night…tonight is going to be a good, good niiiiight…”

Happy Friday, everyone!
