thrills, chills, and....heels!

So, I just had a totally rockin' weekend. Oh yes. The joy. The pain. The wonder of it all. Where to begin....

Well Friday night was pretty standard; I didn't have to work (woo!) so I went to my dad's and we stayed up late watching movies and eating pizza. yum-ness.

Saturday, I hauled my ass out of bed at 8:30 (that's EARLY for me on a Saturday morning, especially considering when I went to bed Friday night) because my mummy dearest said she wanted me to help her go over the schedule for the next *unspecified amount of time*.....she just wanted me there to run and fetch things for her, 'cause she has a broken leg and doesn't like to get up more than she has to---quite understandable. But anyway, when I got there, she was like, "I'm paying bills, go away." (in so many words.) So instead I went SHOE SHOPPING!!! yeah! Because I needed a pair of shoes for the dance that evening, see, and so Goodwill had absolutely nothing in my size, so I went to Shoe Show and found the cutest pair of black heels---I usually don't get excited about shopping or shoes, but you have to understand, these were the height of cute-ness.

So then I had to go to work, 11-3, which I did, and it was pretty standard. Kind of slow, whatever. After that I went and got my lil' bro and took him SLEDDING!!! The end-all, be-all of winter fun-ness. Oh yes. It was glorious. Except for when I went over that one bump and fell off the sled and went skidding face first into snow-filled hay....yeah that kinda hurt....I've got bruises!....but all-in-all, extremely awesome in every way.

Then after THAT, I went home to get ready for the dance, also known as the Winter Holiday Semi-Formal. woo. I went out for dinner with a bunch of people first, which was great fun, and then there was the DANCE. The DJ was pretty good, and I danced....and I danced....and I danced.....I think I sat out maybe three songs the whole night. I fast-danced during a slow song. It doesn't get better than that. And come on, I was wearing a hot-pink feather boa---there was no way I was going to NOT have fun!!!

Then I went home and fell into bed for a measly few hours' sleep, after which I woke up, ate some cold pizza, watched some football (Colts are now 13-0, WOO!!!) and read Hamlet. Joyous.

I'm still aching from Saturday. It was awesome. Woo!!!
