Life is short, which is why I think Playing Hooky was invented. For all of us individuals who are all work and no play, this skipping-work-occasionally-snack is necessary for survival!
Working in retail is a seven-days-a-week job, (and I am sure there are others besides retail), so when others have their Saturdays and Sundays to sleep in, run errands, do laundry and have some fun, we are open and working, therefore Hooky Mondays have recently been incorporated into my life. Unfortunately, as the boss of the business, I can’t just call in “sick” so I want to thank Mollie for being the fabulous employee she is and covering the store.
So after a slight sleep in Monday morning, I pulled on my Fidelity Jeans, Textile Junkie Tee and House of Harlow Jewelry (just cause you are playing hooky doesn’t mean you shouldn’t care how you look!) and headed out to the Wicked Hop to meet some of my favorites for some of our favorite snacks – and of course I am talking about their bloody marys! Much to our pleasant surprise during snack time we were more than entertained by the eye candy in the Spain vs. Honduras World Cup Game. So entertained we almost missed our brewery tour at Lakefront! Always the entertaining experience, Lakefront was surprisingly busy and as we enjoyed our Wheat Monkey we followed around our hilarious tour guide, Curtsy. Best tour I have ever been on at Lakefront! I suggest you check it out. So after, we headed over to the Nomad to cash in our free Lakefront beer coupons and hopefully see some World Cup highlights – because after that Spain game we were hooked!
It was a fun filled day, that is for sure. We all need to take a little time to enjoy life. Hope you do the same in yours.
Up next for Hooky Monday – The Pedal Tavern!
