The week's been rough, y'all. The week. Has been. Rough.

Not to worry, though. It's finally Friday -- can we get a hell yea? -- and we can finally start winding down and prepping for the weekend. Frankly, we're not up for doing anything this weekend besides catching up on some much needed sleep.

But for everyone else who isn't as lazy as we are, we've compiled a list of the 10 best things to do this weekend.

You know, in case you find yourself in need of some plans.

Friday
Optic Nerve: Tickle your brain!
Chris Isaak: OK, OK, OK. We actually really want to see him live.
French Horn Rebellion, Auto Body, and Afrobeta: This is a ménage à trois of sounds for your ear drums!

Saturday
Miami International Wine Fair: Forget tannins! Pack your Tums and head on over.
Love & Vegetables: A great combo. Even better when paired with vegan-friendly realness.
Axwell: This one's for all the ladies in the house! Tickets cost $50.

Sunday
Orange County Hardcore Scenester Party: Yay rockumentaries!
Miami Dolphins vs. Oakland Raiders: Okay, so the Dophins suck, but drinking's fun, so let's tailgate!
