The Usual Blabber

Oh man. I can feel it. I'm about to to submit to the mundane apologies about not having posted for a loooong time. But you know what? I'm resisting as best I can! Heck ya! You know what else? I'm jealous of those blogs that make it to being called pretty darn interesting by Blogger staff. I think that I should be in that ranking. Doesn't everyone find my life as interesting as I do? I'm shocked. Alright, so despite my not apologizing for it, it's true that I haven't posted in quite a while. You should be happy for me! I think that if a person isn't posting a lot, it should prove that they have enough other interests to keep them busy and away from their little-read blog. Their "own little corner of cyberspace." So. Yeah. Deal with it. (Sorry! Teenage rudeness hormones taking over!) I don't know where to begin with all the catch-up stories about my scintillating life! I am excited for Halloween! I worked on my Marie Antoinette costume over the weekend, and it's going to be looking fine! Lavender satin all over baby. The other bombshell from my weekend was the movie I have been waiting to see since the day it came out: Hairspray! See, my longing for a good movie-musical got even stronger when I found out that my dance class (ballet, tap, and jazz) was doing the opening number for our recital in May, and it's You Can't Stop the Beat. Not having seen the movie, I couldn't recite the lyrics with everyone else, and I felt so left out. *pout* But not anymore dahling! I'm all over this. OOOO! I almost left out one of the most important bits. So Margaret and Mary got back from Morocco, right? (They took some b-a-utiful pictures that I will be posting as soon as I can get my hands on them.) I hadn't seen them since they left, but this weekend all that changed. I needed to head over to Wal-mart to get the lace for my dress, and I mentioned this to Margaret. For those of you who don't know my aunt, one of her most obvious traits is her shopaholism. And she had leftover money from Morocco. Kohl's here I come! (She is quite adept at spoiling her niece, a.k.a. me, absolutely rotten.) I really did made quite a haul that night. The pair of Robin Hood boots that I wanted (and fyi for those of you who don't know me, I do have the habit of naming particularly interesting pieces of clothing. It doesn't have anything to do with what the manufacturer named them.), some lovely sweaters, one of those cute plaid jumpers, and another pair of heels that parody loafers. Little wannabes...But that is not all! After seeing the magnificent Hairspray at the Budget (my absolute favorite movie theatre) my parentals and me headed across the street to my favorite thrift store. Woooeee! I got some color there!
