I'm up far to late and I'm far too tired. Why do I always have to force myself to go to bed? I could stay up until noon the next day if I didn't make myself sleep. Today (or rather yesterday) was such a long day.
We volunteered at the blues festival today. It's a pretty big deal around here and people travel from all around to attend it. It was great that we volunteered because duh, it's volunteering. Also though it gave us free access to all of the events after our shift ended. It was only a three hour shift but damn was it hard. It was hot, sunny, and crowded. Ed and I had to walk the fairgrounds selling programs. We also walked to the fairgrounds because parking is impossible. We only live about 20-25 minute walk away from them, but still- between the walk to and back and all the walking we did today it feels like my legs are about to fall off! We had fun, but it was hard not being able to do any shopping because we're so broke right now. I'm such a compulsive shopper, whenever I see stores I want to get something. It almost kills me if I don't. I really hate that about myself. Why the hell do I need to be so materialistic? It's almost a high when I do it too. I have way too much of an addictive personality.
I'm watching a marathon of Ace of Cakes right now. I cannot believe the type of cakes they pull off - they're amazing! Can you believe a typical price is 3,000? I love their cakes, but I don't know if I love them THAT much.
