back from my adventure

i am home, safe from my texas journey. did i have fun? yes. was it good to spend time with my girlfriends? yes. was it fun and exciting to see friends from home in texas? yes. did i miss micah? yes. did i worry that he would eat cereal for supper? yes. did he? yes. and now....

the arrival in dallas...

highlight:
i made it to texas safe and was ready to party.

lowlight:
i was a little too ready to party. while waiting curb-side at the airport for angela, i saw a car coming my way--it was honking and i thought it was her. i posed, jumped up and down and ran towards the car. it wasn't angela. embarassing. plus, i realized i had forgotten my camara.

the drive to austin...

highlight:
i finally was able to reveal to angela her big suprise. she now knew that rose would be in austin. i felt i could breathe again. this new information made the drive north all the more fun. we sang amy grant songs. we know all the words and key changes to amy grant songs.

lowlight:
the drive to austin from dallas is 3 hours. it's hard to wait 3 hours for fun.

austin!

highlight:
we picked up rose at the airport and something happened to all three of us. we screamed yelled and became women who only talk about hair, eyebrows and breast size.

6th street...

highlight:
we met up with friends from home and set out on the town. we went to scary bars and listened to scary music. it was scary and fun.

lowlight:
i said something i wish i hadn't off a balcony, some boy called me a "fuckin' bitch" and angela got punched in the face. scary.

the wedding...

highlight:
the wedding was short and lovely. xio was a lovely bride and alan was a lovely groom. everyone looked lovely.

lowlight:
we were VERY, VERY late. this was humiliating. i hate being late. i hate being late. being late is awful.

the reception...

highlight:
best. reception. ever. free drinks. mashed potatos. dancing.

lowlight:
towards the end i felt a little dizzy. i'm quite sure angela felt dizzy, i'm pretty sure rose felt nothing but serene.

***bonus highlight***
jesse gloyd ladies and gentlemen. he sang with the band. i can't recall if he was invited to sing with band. i don't remember what the song it was, but i'll never ever forget the crazy look on his face or his bride's unwavering support. please, please someone have a picture of this.

***bonus lowlight***
some ass monkey stepped on my foot. my right foot is sore, bruised and swollen. i totally know who is was, too.

so, that's that. i had a great time. i really love texas. the people are nice, the drinks are cheap and the weddings are fantastic. now i am back home to deal with my jobless life. hopefully, pictures to follow.
