THE STAY-ON-MY-GRIND WEEKEND GUIDE

Today is quite a special day.
It is officially the last day of February, meaning March comes around the corner tomorrow: a sign of blooming flowers, transported pollen and with it horrible allergies, and of course the luck o' the Irish and the resulting of a beer belly.
Today is also an abnormal day, meaning it marks an excess of one day, as this year is a leap year that comes around every four years and decides to mess up our February calendar, as if there wasn't a retarded amount of days in February already...come on, 28??
But most importantly, today marks the..what? the WEEKEND.
And I can't be more excited about it besides having a superb paper to do to ruin it.
So for all of you that are able to enjoy a carefree, relaxing weekend bumming around the house, I give you suggestions on some happenings (in the L.A. area) that will most likely be much more adventurous and heartwarming than sitting at home and watching Making the Band 4.
It's amazing what you can do in a weekend, if ya know what I mean:
