Forgive My Weekend Abscence

It’s our meetiversary! Last year I boarded a plane to Austin for the weekend to interview career candidates for PIRG and play in one of my (now) favorite cities with 2 of my work friends. Nick had been in town for a few days for the SXSW Interactive conference and was still jet lagged. We each thought we were coming to the city for business and a little fun with friends.

(The only photo from that trip - Because yes, on Sunday my friend Heather and I did go to Whole Foods purchased mimosa materials and filled our water bottles with them. We may have then walked around Austin {found MORE mimosas} and narrowly escaped scientologists.)

After hopping off my plane, eating dinner and drinking a crazy purple margarita, the girls and I headed to Bar Six. We went upstairs and I was smacked in the face with an elbow where Nick and I began a conversation that hasn’t ended. We went on our first date the next night and it was truly love at first sight. I’m so happy I said “yes” to going to Austin on that work trip. It always reminds me to say yes more often, you never know what it might lead to. Have a lovely weekend!
