Sometimes, you just need a break.

A break from crazy work weeks AND a break from your vacation.  No matter how much fun vacation was.

I know you know what I mean.

So I was lucky enough to have the last two days to completely recharge and get my life back in order.  I did as much laundry as I could find quarters for.  I did the dishes that we had let pile up for days (yep, even Brad was exhausted). I finally put the suitcases away…

But most importantly, Brad finally joined Instagram!!  Today, in honor of how much fun Instagram is – and how much Brad already loves it – I thought I’d share a few of my own Instagram shots of what I do in 48 hour recharge mode.

WARNING – things could get delicious.

I took Gibson for a run or two.  Who doesn’t love that tired dog smile?

I met up with a new acquaintance that I am hoping to get some music started with.  We talked musical theatre, blues rock, latin music, and cover songs.

I was starving and Brad was working, so I headed over to Bar Pintxo for a quick bite.  Brad took about twenty minutes garnishing a very phallic looking dish with giant tweezers…

But it ended up beautiful and delicious.  Veal and Foie Gras Sausage.

Yesterday, Brad and I had a whole day off together.  We slept until we couldn’t sleep anymore, and then we took off in different directions.

He butchered a pig. (This is HIS Instagram shot!)

I looked at shoes at DSW.  And planned a made up vacation to Vegas so I could wear these shoes.
