To Market, To Market
Yesterday was really great. It was a beautiful sunny day, which was a great break from the insane cold and ice. I went to Holiday Market with my sister, mom and aunt. It's basically a huge market where people from around town sell their art and other stuff like soaps, candles, pottery; pretty much anything that can be hand-made will be there. They also have great food, and I almost always end up getting the pad thai. Num. We also stopped at Walmart so my sister could return some stuff and I bought a gingerbread house kit. I'm pretty excited about that, as it will give me something to do with all this free time I have on my hands.
Heather's guy friend who is on leave from army is here visiting and so we all went out to the bars. What I thought was going to be a calm night with a few drinks turned into a whole lot of fun. We started out just having a few drinks at a couple different bars downtown and we played pool for a while, which I royally suck at. But then we went to this other bar that puts on a burlesque show every week. It was actually pretty classy, and I thought it was cool that each girl had different themes for their dances to go with the song. They did an amateur strip-off as well, which was awesome, sorta sexy and hilarious all at the same time. First, two guys had a strip-off (they actually didn't do much stripping), which was funny because you have one kinda goofy pudgy guy against this rico suave type guy, so it was hilarious watching them each work the pole in their different ways. The goofy-pudgy guy won. And then two girls did a strip-off, they both did a pretty good job, and it ended up being a tie. It definitely looks like fun getting up there to do that, but I don't think I'd do it. Those people definitely have guts. It was a total blast and I'm so glad I finally got to see what all the hype was about.
Today's going to be pretty low-key. My sister is supposed to come over and we're going to bake and play Mario Party 2. Life is good :)
