Written yesterday, but LJ is giving me issues:
I am safely home! But yesterday was a lot of fun. Yesterday, I met up with the rest of Weiß. One of the nicest parts was that we sat around and talked for a really long time (like an hour or so) about all sorts of stuff. Of course, I'd have loved to have gotten some Godiva chocolate, but it was probably better that I didn't get it. And going back to Aya's was nice. I was honestly surprised and happy at how much everyone was interested in the faire. And then I had to hurry back to Uncle Mark and Aunt Kirsten's so that Aunt Kirsten could take me to the bead store. I ended up getting three diamond shaped pearls of an Elphaba green color, a strand of gold bicone beads, a vial of green cube shaped crystals, one black heart shaped bead with gold and silver flowers painted on it, and something for Crystal. If that heart weren't a vintage bead, I'd have such a hard time spending six dollars on it. But it was also just too pretty not to. So with a few white rice pearls and a few black bicone crystals, it'll be really pretty. After that, we went to Outback Steakhouse and I realized that that would be my first and last time eating there if I had a choice (which I didn't in the first place, but oh well). I'm no good with spices and after a bit, everything that I got was pretty spicy. I hate it when it seems like I'm fine and then all of a sudden it hits me and the food's hot.... Oh well... And when we got home, we watched "Stranger Than Fiction" and to my surprise, Bradley was in it as an extra in the background of the bus scene. I laughed hysterically and called home then we finished the movie while I assembled my bracelets. All I need now is the leather and I'll be done with the necklaces. Finally!
Today, Aunt Kirsten and I went to the flea market and I bought a mug with two Chinese looking women on it playing instruments, two necklaces to cut apart for the beads, and I confess two beanie babies, which I now look at them and think "Why did I get those?" But I liked them and for $1.50 for both of them, so meh.... And then I traded one of my necklaces for another necklace that a woman made. It was quite nice. So now I have a green and gold necklace named "The Queen of the Nile" ($30) for my purple glass and gold Swarovski crystal necklace ($35). Her necklace took much more time; mine cost more in terms of supplies. She got the better end of the deal and I can't say I mind. She clearly put a lot more work in on her piece than I did on mine. After that, I went back to their place, ate a mini pizza that I added half a can of mushrooms and a quarter of a block of mozzarella and it was yummy. Right after that, I headed home.
The ride wasn't bad aside from the fact that I turned too soon and didn't get on the highway. So I turned around and did my turn where I needed to. I stopped at a rest stop, drank the Gatorade Aunt Kirsten gave me, tried to get rid of my driving headache, which didn't work. I also got gas, where people were all lined up because it was only $3.24. Then I realized they were lined up because they all had the gas cap on the left side of the car. Mine is on the right side, so I went zooming around to the open pump and I was happy for not having to wait for too long. From there, I headed home as quickly as I could. Unfortunately, I unintentionally flung my ID, insurance card, and AAA card all the way across the car in a frantic attempt to quickly get my toll out. That didn't go well. Neither did my attempt to get off the express way when I nearly missed my turn. There were two rows of construction barrels that from straight on didn't look like anything, but from the side, I realized that that was where the exit sign was pointing. So I zoomed over there at about 50mph, my tires were squealing, and I was scared. In all sense, I should have stayed on the expressway. I know I could have gotten off else where, but I'm safe and all is well. Now for PT exercises and bed.
Oh, and Uncle Mark and Aunt Kirsten reminded me that Christmas is at their place this year, so yay. I'll be back. Hehehehehehehe!
Now bed.
