ok. not the boys. this girl. HOME FROM THE SOUTH!
i woke up this morning at 2am (after falling asleep around midnight). got in a car, drove to the airport and, after one plane change in detroit, made it to work by 11am. all i want is my bed and a nap.
the wedding was fun, some guests (literally) almost got sucked up by a tornado (they were saved by their SUV being so heavy), golf ball sized hail smashed up all the parked cars, lightning struck down about 150 feet from the dining tent, and all the fancy people (myself included) ended up dancing, dining and visiting the night away in black mud up to our ankles from the torrential rain. it was a day truly blessed by the lord.
for those of you who know my dad, you will understand how funny this next line is: at the wedding my dad booty-danced with his wife to kanye west.
my face is (very) sunburned. i stuck my toes in the ocean. i ate some boiled peanuts. drank some sweet tea. and had some shrimp for dinner that were only about 3 hours dead. i'm so southern y'all.
i ate at two of the cutest cafes ever in downtown Charleston. very different fare from up here, head chefs walking about and greeting customers. quite charming. Charleston is actually a pretty nifty city when it's not five gazillion degrees. I'm in love with the $8 million dollar houses downtown on the Battery in Charleston Harbor.
*sigh* time to do deposits so i can go home and get some shut eye.
