No rhyme or reason...

I was up til 4 last night, per usual...but at least I was on the phone for the last hour of unable to sleep. One of my friends is having the same issues, we made random conversation about the downhill direction of today's children and I told him a story from my trip down south.

(It was the day after my friend's wedding and she picked me up at my hotel to go meet her new husband and everyone else from the wedding party for lunch. She picked me up in the Newlywed car-- there were beads and TP all over it, and show polish over the windows saying things like "Honk! We just got married!" With 2 chicks in the car, with no men, the people going by just goggled and we could see the thought bubbles "But...but...that's not legal here." So we made a joke out of it and made a quick sign that said "Have you seen my husband?" and we took turns holding it in the windows. Everyone got a nice laugh out of that.)

But speaking of her wedding, she said there are a few pictures coming my way of the wedding party. I'd like to see them, we all looked so pretty (and it'll get my mom off my ass, she never got to see me in the bridesmaid dress.) I want her to see a shot of my hair, it took over an hour and had 88 pins in it, and so much hairspray that the stylist told me to "Avoid open flames" but hell, it looked good and I hadn't ever been that dressed up (the shoes just about crippled me though.)

I have to give my brother a call today, and congratulate him on his grades. He's a solid B student, and I think he'll end up doing better as he gets more used to junior high. I can't believe my monster brother is going to be 14 in a couple months (partly because I'll turn 24 a month after his birthday.) He'll always be my little anklebiter, that punched me in the face the first time I ever held him. See? He started it.
