The drive to Bakersfield Saturday morning was not as bad as I had expected! It was quite rainy and dark, but there wasn't much traffic. We got into town around 11 o'clock on Saturday morning and immediately started the festivities!
We had Jersey Mike's subs and hot dogs. It was a great day. Jeff and I met up with Stevi and Mike, my cousin Matt and his fiance Hilary, as well as Stevi & my college roommate Carly and her boyfriend for dinner on Saturday at The Petroleum Club (my favorite). I got duck for my first time ever and loved it! Well, from all of those festivities, I only have one picture from the entire weekend. My phone got stolen on Saturday night after dinner. :( I have never lost a phone before or had one stolen! Total culture shock. I feel so violated and hope that whoever took it was not able to break in past my passcode. So I went to Verizon on my lunch break and had a total meltdown. Everyone was so unhelpful and it took forever. I was late back to work and still phoneless. I felt my eyes get full of tears in the store, but vowed not to actual break down and cry. I have to go back again after work and get things figured out. UGH! Well, this has not been the best Monday for me, I need things to turn around this week!
On a lighter note, Ash Wednesday is this week! I love Lent and the Easter season. I normally give up soda and candy for Lent, but am struggling to decide what I want to give up this year since I have been on such a strict diet. My mom got me a prayer book with a new prayer to read each day of Lent so I am going to start that, but I want to do something else as well. I am considering adding something to do instead of "giving up" something. Any idea!?
