Friday - I went to the Interior Design Show after work. I was tired, so I wondered through the kitchens and bathrooms like a zombie. Afterwards, I met Leah at Regis for their CultureFest.
On Saturday, we went over to D&J's for breakfast. Becky Hubble was staying with them for the weekend, since she was in town for Come Up to My Room...
Later we went grocery shopping, and then that evening, we went to LL's birthday party.
On Sunday, we went to Ping Pong and bought a table for Leah to use as a desk. Afterwards, she had to meet some people to work on school stuff, so I went to Come Up to My Room, and to some galleries, and to Ideal Coffee.

Weekend
We got a lot done this weekend, although most of it felt like a struggle.
I managed to get the living room painted (1 coat on Saturday and 1 on Sunday), which is amazing. I was expecting to need 3 coats to cover the dark brown that we had previously used, but 2 looks great.
Also - we stopped in at a travel agent to book a trip to some beach-type resort during Leah's reading week. Turns out that such a trip during such a week costs roughly twice what we expected (oh, that's the price PER PERSON?!)... So if anybody has any clever ideas of places to go on the cheap to get away from the -20C weather, let me know...
Leah did tonnes of reading and writing while I painted.
Also, Starving Artist on Sunday was delicious, although frustratingly busy. We were poised to jump the larger groups waiting in line ahead of us, when a party of four decided to split into 2 parties of 2 and took up all the small tables... There was almost a waffle riot...
