Exhausted, Excited and Freaking Out

As we all know, Last Weekend was our Independance Day.

I spent all day inside making my TODDLER-PANTIE-PURSE. Don't judge.

Then, our cul-de-sac had our 4th of July BBQ that ended up being in the Levy's garage because of the rain. Lovely. But luckily, the rain cleared in time for us to light all of our lovely fireworks.

Also luckily, Dioni's (yeah, I have NO idea how to spell her name) sister from South Africa, along with her two kids, were there with us. Don't ask me to remember the chick's name, because there was no reason for me to know it. HOWEVER, Dioni's nephew, FRANCOIS (yeah, his name is French.), was adorable. And 17. And adorable. And funny. And adorable. We hung out and talked the entire time. It was pretty chill. Unfortunately he's going back to South Africa now. Oh well.

So anyways, back to the present:

Today was aaaahhhmazin'. Alex and I went to the mall, and I got glasses and eyeliner. Yes.

AANND we went to Macy's and tried on a million UGLY ASS DRESSES. yes. UGLY. ASS. DRESSES.

and we have decided to have an Ugly Dress Party. MMyes. Yes,mm.

So when we got home from the park (we went on a run after our shopping adventure) we immediately got on facebook and formed our ugly dress party group, and sent out many many invitess.

Another thing I did on the computer tonight, (which I am exxtreemely excited about) is restore my iTunes. FINALLY. I got allll of my songs back (before, after my computer crashed, I only got all my purchased music back, and then I re-burned a few of my favorite CD's on there. But that was only a little more than half.) Yes, it's true ladies and gentlemen, Emily Elizabeth Pohlenz FINALLY has all 1,235 songs on her iTunes. YESS.

So now I'll have my entire gorgeous soundtrack to listen to in Kansas, for which I leave for This Saturday (I'm visitin' my Gran'parents. Yes. Gran'. Parents.). I really hope that the Town of Argonia, Kansas has gained a population of at least a few (CUTE) boys ages 15 to 17.

Other than boy-scoutin' (ha!), All I'll really be doing in the lovely state of Kansas will be my AP European History Summer Homework Assignment. Yay.

That one is definitely gonna take up the rest of my summer.

So here's the dillyo.

I have to read this ginormous (pretty boring) book (A History of the Wife, if you must know) and answer 10 (fairly long) questions (in detail. oh yes.) FOR EACH CHAPTER.

No, boys and girls, not 10 questions about the book.

10 questions for each of the 10 (50 page!) chapters of this lovely lovely book.

And then I have to "record relevant information about" a bunch of dead chicks from the book.

Great.

So I'm thinking this week will be my last social week of the summer.

Other than the Denver Freeze (hellyesssss) on August 8th

and our Ugly Dress Party (date yet to be set)

I don't think I'll be doing much else.
