I am all over the place today. I was having a really difficult time with this post because I have so much to talk about.
You see, the reason I don't often do a weekend recap is because true to last week's post, I'm pretty much a stay in and do nothing girl by nature. But then this miraculous weekend, I have so much to talk about that I even can split it up into the lifestyle things here on JumpingJE and all of the fitness recaps on Not the Average Bear (my new fitness blog for those of you who are new to the party).
So last week Brooke introduced me to Katie and her awesome weekend recap style called "things I learned this weekend" I'm going to borrow that style today because otherwise I'm going to be all over the place and you readers won't know what to pinpoint to comment on. Are we cool?
1. If you take a nap on Friday night when you get home from work you will not feel well when you wake up and you will not end up going to that birthday party you promised that you'd go to.
2. If you stay in on Friday night, as a result you'll have an intense blog-brainstorming party and when you're done with that you'll reorganize your chrome bookmark tabs. It's disgusting, really.
3. The best type of girl hang-out / catch up is done over a workout and brunch, not happy hour. Do you want to know why?
-You don't have to do your hair or try to "look cute".
-You share protein shake secrets, workout habits and invite friends to dance class.
-You finish it off with a brunch spot that has bottomless mimosas.
Yes, that says 1 mimosa and 6 refills for only $5.00. Laurel already learned that she gets good tips this way.

4. The public library is a pretty awesome place.
5. The Balanced Bites podcast told me that I can't chew gum. When will I ever quit?
6. Champagne brunch makes me want more champagne.
7. Champagne at a Cirque du Soleil show is only $2 more per glass than the coors light (what, how?!)
8. Spotify doesn't automatically put you on a private session, so my spotify friends saw how many times I played #Selfie during the 10k.
9. Post-Race at a beer party if you're in a group that looks like they're having fun, random strangers will walk up to you and give you their unused drink tickets. Is this like having a guy buy you a beer?
10. Doing things all weekend is hard to recap and this way of sharing is amazing.
What did you guys do this weekend? Want to join me in Portland for bottomless mimosas? I'll buy!
