just back from a whirlwind tour of DC, Virginia, Baltimore, and Philly...ugho
saw bligh and erica on friday- we lunched and visited the shady liquor store in foggy bottom and then bligh and i watched reefer madness in an attempt to help bligh kind of semi practice for her understudyness...then drank our/my life away at ericas...good times
saturday bligh drove me back to b-more and i went to one of the worst. weddings. ever.
seriously, i'm sorry if you are my friend and you want to get married and invite me, bc i will not attend...not if you wear white after already having pre-marital sex or have dumb bitch bridesmaids or have the father-daughter dance or make me listen to an awful wedding band while you and your husband get plastered...ok? awesome
i just think it is so lame how we have taken this ceremony with all of these things that used to have meanings, and just fucked them up. oddly enough bridesmaids used to serve a purpose, but now they are just these girls that the bride gets to dress up to flank her in order to make her wedding look wonderful...fuckers
and if i heard my sister liz say how much more creative and great her wedding was, i would have gone insane.
not that i didnt go insane. oh no. i did.
for some reason, while at the wedding, i got extremely emotional and kept having to excuse myself from the table to go off into a corner and just like, try to cry, except i never really did...?
oh my...
and then to top off saturday evening, i was forced to sleep on my sisters sick ass couch and while im trying to nod off, my three sisters, my brother in law, and my sisters gf decide to start blabbing away in the middle of the living room preventing me from actually sleeping, and then i got woken up the next morning the same way...lovely
sunday was pretty busted...left b-more, went to philly
today was kind of fun/interesting, but just wayyy too long
got up and went to the liberty bell and independence hall (bc i was the only child of my family to not go on the 5th grade trip to philly which i blamed on my mother for having me too late bc they had stopped it by the time i was in 5th grade)
it was cool to like, see that stuff i guess...although the liberty bell thing was totally ruined by this tour guide guy saying 'this bell may not have even run on the 4th of july...it was probably a totally different bell'...way to fuck with history america
then we went shopping at h&m...got some grood stuff
then we went to the franklin science center or something, and saw the really amazing exhibit on mummies (except i was kind of freaked bc on saturday (in between the wedding and reception) we went to this museum in b-more where they had a whole bunch of mummy coffins and ish and it was really freaking me out...like, i feel like we shouldnt have messed with their stuff...ehhh) except this one did not have so many coffins, just a lot of artifacts, but one thing was the actual crown that king tutankhamun's mummy was found wearing...like, way to be so old
the ride home tonight was hell
the end
in other news, i saw 'little children'...wonderful
peace
ps- open call for 'fantastick's' in city on thursday? i think yes :)
