*phew*

*sigh of relief* ahhhh okay so my graduation party is over. And I think I'd call it a success. We have about a million tons of food left over, but oh well. I told Mom we should mail it to China, but she didn't think that'd be such a great idea....hm....

But anyway...yeah it was supposed to be a "backyard barbecue," at least, that's what the invitations said, but then we decided to put the food in the kitchen instead of outside, and it was kind of hot out, so it turned into more of a sitting-around-in-the-living-room-ecue, and then some people left and it turned into a my-mom-and-her-friends-drinking-more-margaritas-than-is-strictly-necessary-ecue, and then it turned into a my-mom-and-her-friends-being-pretty-embarassingly-inebriated-ecue, and then somebody showed up with marshmallows and we made s'mores. O_o Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my life. But it was fun anyway.

And then everybody finally left and my mummy dearest and I put away all the perishable food items and set about counting up my loot. I made over $600 in cash and checks, and better than $700 if you count the two gift cards and the prepaid gas card I got. Oh yeah. Pretty freakin' sweet. I told my mom I should have graduation parties more often.

And then I got out the helium tank and sang the Chipmunks Christmas song. :D

So yeah....in other news, I got a haircut. Which doesn't sound all that surprising, but anyone who really knows me also knows that I haven't had an actual haircut in two years. It was getting pretty insane, all down my back and in the way all the time, and I always wore it up 'cause it was a pain in the ass, so I chopped it off and donated it to Locks of Love (which, by the way, is a free haircut at participating locations---I did not know that). Almost fourteen inches. Went from almost-down-to-my-waist to not-quite-down-to-my-chin. My head feels so strange and light now. I like it. And a bunch of people have been complimenting me on it, so I guess it must be at least somewhat cute. :)

la di da de do do dooooo......

I can't wait 'til Thursday! Kim's coming back up and we're going to pick up my mom in Wisconsin and go camping! :D

Later!
