Wonderful

July 14, 2008 in Travel with 4 Comments

I had a fabulous weekend.

I traveled to the D.C. area to do the Running of Brides at Filene’s Basement with a group of girls. It was a hoot. There were several cameras there from TV stations. I ran in looking for the bride’s dress size. OMG, in the speed of light, those women swooped everything off the racks. I ended up empty handed. LOL

Anyway, I redeemed myself later. It took six women and hours of searching. I think the bride tried on about 50 dresses. She finally settled on a lovely, strapless dress with gold lace trimmings. It was a perfect fit.

The next day we visited the Smithsonian Museum and saw the Live Butterflies and the Hope Diamond. Then we caught a bus to Georgetown to shop like normal people. Saw a bunch of pretty people in their pretty summer clothing. Gladly Beyond popped in my head; Lex tells Clark, Georgetown is a sewer. gggg

Eeek!

My Amex bill came in. Eleven flight tickets on one freaking bill. Yeah, sure I knew it was coming. Thought I had a month grace but of course not, Amex wants their money. My sweet darling family better pay up soon.

At one point, the man was looking awfully scruffy. Had hair on his face hanging down to his knees and a moustache thick enough to grow trees. And we aren’t going to mention those infamous jeans – like how many times one could wear the same pair without something extraordinarily happening to them.

But he seems to have come out of that funky stage I guess entertainers go through. Looking fine there, Jakey Poo!

Haven’t decided: Who I want to be or Where I want to be. A decision I’m sure the world will be gripped by its profoundness.

Reading two different BBM stories by two different authors. Amazingly there are similarities in tone, phrase structure, and choice of wordings. Could be the same author or maybe not. And maybe my head is high on rich caffeinated coffee.
