Bit by the laziness bug

So it's Friday and I'm very happy about that. But I feel guilty as well because I didn't go to the gym once this week. Every day I had some stupid excuse of why I shouldn't go. Now the weekend has come and I'm definitely not going tomorrow because we are going to a wine festival with friends. Maybe Sunday I can make it. Next week I will have whip my ass into shape. I really wish that I could inspire myself to stick to a workout regime. I think I need a book or something to guide me. Any recommendations? I eat healthy generally. I stay away from fried foods and our dinners are usually just a meat, veggies, and a carb (brown rice or sweet potatoes). The weekends we definitely slack off on our diet but nothing too bad. I just need to be inspired.

We're having my friends Gary and Carrie from NYC stay with us this weekend. They're not going to be getting in until late tonight so we will have time to come home and spruce up the apartment before they get here. We're all going to the wine festival and meeting up with some more friends tomorrow. It should be interesting, because it's going to a mix of people I know from grad school and friends from work, like 13 people. We're all taking the shuttle from the Metro so none of us have to drive. It's nice to have developed a good little circle of friends in this area that we can hang out with on the weekends. During the week, we're mostly busy with our own things, but during the weekend we can get together for stuff like this.

I feel bad for DH, because the people we hang out with are pretty much all my friends or acquaintances. Although he gets along with all of them and enjoys hanging out with them and they like him as well. He doesn't have any good guy friends in the area that he can hang out with for guy things. I encourage him to hang out with his few guy friends from work and he does on rare occasions, usually I go with him. All of his good lifelong friends live in FL or in other states. He doesn't seem too bothered by it, because he likes the life we have here and he sees his friends at least a few times a year. The only person that DH would really want to live closer to if he could would be his brother. They have a great relationship and they're so funny together. We're both looking forward to seeing him in August at his wedding.

One of DH's good friends will be visiting in a couple of weeks and I'm really happy about that for DH. I like him for the most part and I think we will all have a great time.
