Whew........it's been awhile. I hope you all didn't miss me too much.
Well, I missed all of you, really.
That gorgeous dress I was so excited to wear to the wedding in So.Cal? Yeah, it didn't fit when it came. Yet another reason I get pissed that a majority of plus size women are shuffled to the internet to buy clothes. You never know if it's going to fit! I ended up getting an "it will do" dress at the last minute. I liked it okay, but I wasn't all too excited about it, so I kept the tags on and returned it when I got back. BOO-YAH.
Through a series of drama filled events (which are not even worth going into here) one of the bridesmaids did not show up. So I was the pinch hitter bridesmaid. Awesome. I got to be one of the first in the dinner buffet, so that was nice.
Speaking of weddings (which is all I will be speaking of for the next few months, gah) I hosted a bachelorette party this weekend. We had a BLAST. Me (maid of honor) and the bride went wine tasting in the afternoon and gnoshed on some goat cheese and olives. We had a nice dinner with a few other girls and then of course we had to deck her out in a "Future Mrs." tshirt and a bridal veil and make her do a list of dares on her back. All in all it was a fabulous night. The only downside was that one of the gentlman that we used for a party game (One of the girls rolled the dice and had to "do a shot with a nerdy guy") approached me later, asked me to dance and asked for my number. Because of a mixture of shock(regardless of whether you believe me or not, that never happens to me) and distraction (that night was about HER, not ME) I gave it to him even though I wasn't remotely interested. He then proceeded to follow me around all night (halfway to the bathroom) stare at me while I danced or walked around the bar with the bride, try to hold my hand and text message me twice and leave me a voicemail. All before he left the bar that night. I got myself a stalker, but the bride had fun and that's what it's about.*
Rewinding back to Thursday night...
I went on a "radio cruise". I realize many of you probably don't know what this is so I will tell you. A local radio station will sponsor a cruise on a nearby lake and the tickets are only around 8 bucks but you get a 3 hour ride around a GORGEOUS lake. You also have access to lots of booze. You have to buy your own but it seems like no big deal cause you only paid 8 bucks to get on the boat. Me and my friends got a little too drunk and I was the recipient of a life milestone on my drive home.
My friend puked in my car.
Somehow I had avoided this all through college but I believe it is some sort of rite of passage, and no matter when it has to happen, it will. Good times. Not really.
I think that's the end of Monday's post. I am in a wedding this Sunday so I'll probably have lots of embarassing things to report after that. Stay tuned.
*On a side note I did get the phone number of a guy I WAS interested in and he told me to call him sunday to perhaps go out to some comedy, and when I called him he never answered nor did he call me back. So..........that whole dating thing is still lame.
