Sup sup?! Hello Saturday. Hard to believe that just a week ago I was knee deep in tapas in Barcelona. I thought I would do a weekend wrap up because why not. Here are the highlights from the past week!
Sunday: A lovely and awesome day spent at the beach in a village just outside of Barcelona. Idyllic! Followed by more wine and a pizza dinner back in town. Miss it so much!
Monday: My flight back to Vienna was supposed to leave at 10. It was delayed by 30 minutes and you would have thought it had been delayed by 6 hours based on the constant apologies from the Austrian Airlines staff and pilot. We arrived 15 minutes later than expected and once again, Austrian Airlines for the win. From landing to bag picked up took less than 15 minutes. Don't ever change, Austria. You complete me. In the afternoon we had a meeting with a therapist to see if we could add on to his current therapy sessions. We will see how that pans out in the next week or so. Things in Vienna have got to change in regards to Autism support. RIDICULOUS! I'm on it. Challenge accepted. Sorry, cough, off my soapbox. In the evening a dear friend came by for dinner. I hadn't seen her in 2 months so we had A LOT to catch up on! So glad she is back!
Tuesday: The majority of the day was spent lazing around. We took a family walk down to the shoe repair shop and the vegan store. I did some laundry, played with the Kid and cut out pictures from magazines for the perfect bangs. Yes, bangs. In the evening I met a friend for Spinning and as always it was awesome!
Wednesday: The morning was spent putting the Kid in time out repeatedly. Will the guilt ever go away? Computer says no. At noon I had a hair appointment and when I walked in I said "Chocolate brown and bangs." I have bangs now and I am not sure how I feel about them. One minute I am like "OH MY GOD I AM Zooey Deschanel!" and the next minute I am this guy:
After my haircut, I met the Husband at the Kunsthistorische Museum because I feel like I am dumbening every month. We spent a couple of hours walking around and I amused myself with a running dialogue. And here are some of the things that made me LOL at my own wit. (Humility? Don't always have that.)

| No sorry, we don't do cloth diapers. |
 |
| Dammit! Who left this here?!? I almost stepped up on it! Gah! |
 |
| Is that Quentin Tarantino?! |
 |
| I don't know what is happening here but that dog looks pissed. |

| This tapestry looks to be from the 1600's. So glad I paid attention in my art history classes in college. |
After a drink in the cafe, I went to Swing Kitchen to get some vegan fast food and then met a friend for a quick drink at Burger Ville. We had a little time to kill before the Women of Vienna event at Corbaci. It was beautiful out and I met some lovely people. My bangs also met some lovely people. And then I walked home.
Thursday: In the morning the Husband and I went to MA 35 with fear in our hearts. It turned out amazingly well (which I wrote about on Thursday night). And then I went to work. During the day the Husband and I also decided to book a hotel for the Friday since the Mother in Law offered to take the Kid for the night. I quickly booked a room at the 25Hours Hotel because they have an awesome rooftop terrace... and gin and tonics. In the evening I met a friend at Rathausplatz where we indulged in Rose French wine, vegan food and laughed and talked. It was awesome. I don't think I will be back to the Rathausplatz film festival this year so it was a lovely way to say good bye. Until next year!!
Friday: The Kid and the Husband were still asleep when I left for work which is one part adorable and one part jealousy inducing. After work I made my way to the 25Hours hotel. Our room was cute and the air conditioning was amazing. We stopped at the terrace for a drink and then headed downstairs to 1500 Foodmakers for dinner. We were an hour too early for food service so we sat and talked and enjoyed the shade. At 6 on the dot I ordered a Mozzarella pizza (don't tell my nutritionist) and then we went back upstairs to the terrace for a nightcap. By 8 we were ready to watch some TV. Luckily
the Mentalist was on. Yeah, I know, we are wild.
Saturday: I woke up at 9! WHAT?! INSANE! Even the Husband was like "You ok?" I have not slept in until 9 for years! WHAT?! THIS IS INSANE!! I am always up by 6 at the latest. Right now I can feel many parents reading this and cursing my name with raised fists. Yes, I slept 11 hours. 11 HOURS! I should probably get a blood test. So 25Hours gets my vote for best bed EVER. At 10 I left the hotel and the Husband decided to sleep in a little longer. I had a spinning class to go to! It was a great class and now after 5 sessions, I can say I am hooked. LOVE IT! Never gonna give you up.
The Kid is back home and has passed out. I am guessing he had an amazing time at the In laws like he always does. I was hoping that the Husband and I could finally finish watching
Gone Girl but I have a feeling that the Kid will be up until 10 tonight after this epic nap. The rest of the weekend is unplanned and that is a good thing. Maybe some of the laid back living in Barcelona wore off on me? Oh look, silver paint! I smell a project!
