sometimes i look at siblings & i always seem to find the oldest the more attractive of the two (or more). & now i wonder if the oldest just got the best genes? i think my sister & i are a good example of that. i know she could be much prettier, if her hair colour wasn't the colour of bozo the clown. (i wonder what the two middle children would have looked like..)
yesterday was the mama's (teri) 41st birthday. i took eggs from my house & made her breakfast in bed. we bleached brittany's hair, watched maid in manhattan & went to the liquor store. started drinking at 3pm. went & bought more at 5pm. nannie was coming over for dinner at 5. my dad kept laughing & saying "this is just GREAT, nannie's gonna come over & we're all gonna be shit face drunk!" nobody was drunk except teri, she continued to take shots in her bedroom through the night. i was "decent" by the time nannie got there. i won out being the only one without a headache this morning. (minus eric, he only had two bud ices) we had a good time. i have to teach my little sister that vodka is not sexy, it's not cool to act like you drink everclear by the gallons & being a cheap drunk is a good thing. pink (or in this case, orange) girly drinks are a good thing.
soaking in the bath, looking back on yesterday. looking back on the past year. looking ahead to november. looking down & watching the bath tub drain the last splash of water. & think about the little whirlpool it makes when the water is just about finished. remembering being a tiny little girl once apon a time & putting my tiny index finger in eye of the whirlpool. i always waited until all the water was gone before i got out. made me feel more dry that way, for some reason.
