Black Keys/KOL Concert, Tailgate Ready, 10K Training, New Dress

Thank you for all of your sweet comments and support! I've really enjoyed blogging, and just can't say enough positive things about it, really! Also, after reading your comments i'm even more excited to be an aunt and spoil baby P! I just think it's going to be so funny - the first grandbaby in my family!!

Let me back up a bit: Wednesday was just work, ran 3 miles during lunch at 6.3 mph/walked 1/4 mile (showered), and then after work I headed straight over to Stacy's for the Kings of Leon/Black Keys concert! (Reuben was already over there - Austin dropped him off that afternoon when he headed to the airport to an overnight work trip in Fort Lauderdale!). I rode with her and her husband, Shane, and met up with their friends for some pre-concert tailgating. We parked next to this billboard....
Good times in the concert
Me and Stacy!
Me, Stacy & our Lo
The girls - Stacy, Mandy, me, Danielle and Lindsey

The concert was fun - saw some of our co-workers, and a friend I hadn't seen since high school. I missed Austin of course but had fun chilling with the girls and taking pictures. We got home around midnight after a late Taco Bell stop - those tacos were SO good (I counted them as breakfast the next day!) haha I ended up at 2,220 calories, 195 carbs, 51 fat grams and 122 protein grams. Here's what I ate.

Thursday me and Reuben woke up at 7, headed out, got some gas, then got to my house to start working! I was tired, so I took my lunch break to nap. Then after work I got tailgate ready: made a marinade, made a pasta salad, made a dressing, made magical margarita, made guacamole and packed up all of the travel plates, cups, skewers, shot glasses, liquors, mixers and more - woo!! Then it was off to the mail for a dress - apparently we're doing all blue this weekend so it required a new one! I hit up Macy's and got two - I plan to wear this great Michael Kors one Saturday!

I got this in Navy!
Here's the navy (for some reason this color wouldn't do a non-close up shot!) haha

It was originally $100, on sale for $56 with a percentage off so it rang up at $30 and when I used my Macy's card I got $4 off so $26. After the mall, I got the eyebrows waxed then went home, ate green chicken enchiladas and passed out. Great day! I ended up at 1,840 calories, 191 carbs, 80 fat grams and 96 protein grams. Here's what I ate.

Q: Do you stay with friends when your roommate/significant other is out of town? I'm a big baby. I much prefer to have someone come stay or to stay at someone's until Austin is back!

Q: Do you like Michael Kors? I'm a fan - his designs are usually classic and well-made and I like him on Project Runway. I only have a few of his pieces and this dress is def my favorite so far!

Q: Do you eat more/make poorer choices when you're tired? I do... :(
