I feel like I visited every local dig in town today and it was pretty glorious. It's starting to smell like cross-country season every morning, and I'm dying of happiness over it. I got up and drove downtown for an 8am class at purvelo....trying to squeeze in as many classes during my 1-month unlimited "membership." So far, so good, and there's nothing better than being finished with your workout before 9am.

Afterwards, I walked over to ACAC to shower then finally got the chance to hit up the uber-hipster new Juice Laundry in the new/old Coca Cola building. It's super-cool inside...like everything new and glam in Charlottesville, there was plenty of "exposed wood," concrete, and Edison lights. Everything claims to be fresh and organic and there was quirky, Marian Hill-esque music blasting through the speakers. I got The Blaze smoothie which, for $7.50, should have tasted like unicorns were bursting flames out of my mouth. It was really good -- the cayenne and ginger together were definitely weird, but it will definitely be something I recreate at home for 1 million less dollars.
I went home to hang out for a bit and to catch Gabe before he headed out to work. I had on jeans and a shirt (i.e., real clothes) and I've really just decided that I only want to wear running clothes on the weekends and no one will stop me so help me God. The end.
I headed back out and decided to spend this most gorgeous day walking the Saunders-Monticello Trail. For some reason, I thought it would lead me to the top of Carter Mountain, not Monticello (obviously oblivious to the name of the freakin' trail). I was a little bummed when I got to the top and was greeted by Thomas Jefferson rather than Apple Cider Donuts, but it's probably for the best.
It was about 4 miles top to bottom and I needed tacos afterwards. Naturally. So...to Brazos I go! Everyone has been losing their shit over the breakfast tacos here, but I needed some guac in my life so I got two different tacos + chips and salsa. They were....good. Nothing fancy by any means and honestly, I would have preferred to have twice as much Chipotle for a few buck less. But whatever, when in Rome...
A million errands later, I'm finally back home and chilling with my newest obsession...my eucalyptus/spearmint candle that is making my whole house smell like a spa. Time to prep for my tutoring session tomorrow, answer a few work emails (yuck), and get ready for a backyard "bonfire" tonight.
Happy Sunday!
