All Packed Up....

So, Im leaving tomorrow for something I have been looking forward to for 4 years....and now that its here im not all excited to leave tomorrow...

Have you ever packed and packed but just didnt feel ready to go?

That's happening to me. I packed and packed and overpacked. (i didnt take this much to college...ok maybe i did, but yeah) I ended up packing 3 suitcases one for clothing which weighed 78 pounds lol i had to like jump on it to get it to close... another suitcase entirely for my shoes and one entirely for makeup and hair products....oh yeah and a garment bag with 16 dresses...lol i mean you just never know when you need a dress right? :)

So needless to say, I hobbled up the stairs with my abundance of luggage and immediately heard the inevitable complaining and nagging from my parents....they just dont understand that I just MAY need 36 pairs of underwear, 7 belts, 12 skirts, two hair straighteners, or 20 pairs of socks....i mean seriously....ANYTHING could happen..and then where would I be? :)

Today mom and I ran the final errands for the trip. We went to get our nails are prettyfied for the trip, and she decided I just HAD to have a pedicure, so she talked me into it....btw i hate feet and its my most ticklish body part. So I was more or less terrified of what my reaction would be....it was great at first. Then the girl pulled out the pumice stone....and I lost it, I started laughing uncontrollably and poor girl didnt understand English so she probably thought I had escaped from some institution before that. It was a dreadful experience, but as my overly feminine mother keeps reminding me "Beauty may be painful, but it's worth it". I dont know about you, but I think beauty can be found in sneakers and a t shirt and in a much less painful fashion.

Anyways....after getting all girled up we shopped for Fathers day. My dad and grandpa have got to be the two hardest men to shop for....ugh Well in my pursuit for mens apparal and cologne, I ended up getting my old high school job back...i guess thats good?

Then I packed, but I am leaving something behind, my dad. :( I am extremely perplexed that we have to leave him here to be eaten alive by Deli Fresh for two weeks... and we are leaving on Fathers day of all days :( I just want to pack him up and steal him. Is it considered kidnapping if you share the same genes?


I think I should wrap up my ramblings for the day...


Night night :)
