So starts a very calorie ridden weekend. It's birthday weekend!
I'm going to try to do my drinks with liquor + diet soda to lower down the caloric intake, but there will be shots in there somewhere, cupcakes will probably be consumed, and other foods will tie me down. Well, it's not like my scale will reflect is ANYWAY because I'm convinced it's stuck at 131. ;)
I still don't know what we're doing tomorrow because the weather has not been accurately predicted in four days and is jumping all over the place (94 on Wednesday, 52 on Friday....thunderstorms yesterday morning and bright sunshine yesterday afternoon...). It might not involve food which would be better on my diet...
Speaking of weather changes, we're still going out to that party on the lake today but it doesn't look like beachin' will be happening. The sun hasn't been out and it's only 70 degrees. However, that will be naked arms or legs weather, and I'm wearing an outfit I've been stoked to wear for a couple months! A pair of boyfriend style jeans, low on the hips with a loose, thick strapped grey tank. Slouchy. It looked so good in the picture where I discovered the outfit, and I think I'm going to wear it today because my arms look amazing. I'm almost more excited about that than the actual party! XD
With only one day left to the "big day", I finally got my Happy-birthday-to-myself present: a thick sterling silver geometric ring that I got 40% off at Fab.com. It's an invite only design site kinda like Groupon. I didn't think I was going to be able to get it because I have such tiny fingers, but to my surprise they had a size five! Seriously, there's only one finger where I can wear your normal sized rings (and by that I mean size 5) and that's my right ring finger (and that's only partly because the knuckles larger due to a couple old basketball jamming injuries). My high school class ring was a size 2! I can't quite fit into that right now, but all my fingers are 3 and 4 with the exception of that one finger. It's so hard to find cool, cheap rings in my size.
Happy birthday to my favorite person on this entire planet! I love you, Grandma Barb! Happy 78th birthday!
