Shopping is tiresome (but fun). Let me tell you. I woke up this morning at 8 a.m. with the intention of getting a new driver's license that was horizontal and represented my being 21. Little did I know the DOT is closed for Labor Day weekend, so no dice on the ID. Instead, I did a little lounging before going over to the TKE house to eat chili and better-than-sex cake (I don't think the name is appropriate for the cake). The chili was spicy, but so good that I finished two bowls and a small piece of the cake (it's good, but almost too rich of cake for me).
After our bellies were full, Erin, Diane and I went shopping. Diane really wanted to find a dress. Amidst the racks of the first store, I found a Halloween costume - a Disney princess dress that is actually really pretty. That whole "college-girls-must-dress-slutty-for-Halloween" rule won't really apply to me this year. I like the idea of being sexy but not slutty. It's classier.
By the time we made it to Jordan Creek, my feet were killing me from some flat shoes - go figure. So I went and bought a pair of super cute cheap heels to walk around in for the duration of our excursion. Funny how those heels were more comfortable than flats with Dr. Scholls inserts. Must be a sign I need to continue wearing stilettos ... such a burden ...
Erin and I enjoyed playing personal dresser for Diane as we perused the racks for some pretty dresses. As we waited for her to change into each one, we also enjoyed critiquing and commenting on the gaggles of high school girls buying their homecoming dresses. Apparently the style this year is neon colors with animal print and sparkles ... it's an 80's safari on drugs. Not always the best looking. But Diane looked great in several dresses and did purchase one.
After 6 hours in stores, I was a little lightheaded, so we grabbed some caffeine (I got a whole 54 ounces of it) and went back to eat at home. Exhaustion from shopping, oh boy.
