Yes ladies and gents, it's karaoke. It's karaoke on Bourbon Street, Mardi Gras weekend and it's before noon. Blame it on the rain. It was nasty weather but the fun was innocent and it was time spend with friends, great friends at that. We were home safe, by four o'clock in the afternoon. The rain was terrible, but it was nothing that a little Blondie couldn't cure. Yes, I did. I sang karaoke. I know what you're thinking, "like you've never done that before," well you're right, but I've never done that song and it was fun. It was a nice day though. Time with good friends is one of the most wonderful things in my life and am so blessed to have had Ashley in my life since I was 3 years old (30 years almost) and Michelle I've known for 14 1/2 years. Both were in my wedding and both, I hope, would jump in front a moving car for me, as I most certainly would do for them.
We talked, reminisced, laughed, laughed harder. The entire weekend was wonderful. Friday night we played on Ashley's computer with the photo booth thing and we cried more than we laughed, it was the deep down just generally funny laughs. It ended with us laughing at each other laughing and were laughing so hard we just couldn't stop. Those are the perfect type of memories.
Carey had to work today and play music tonight and the plan was to go and hear him sing, but we all fell asleep when we got home and my back was hurting in the most terrible way possible so we decided against it. I'm about to head to bed so we can all have breakfast in the morning before Michelle and Jake head back to Houston. I can't believe it is Sunday already. The days go by SOOOO fast, it's not fair. Thanks be to God that we have off on Tuesday and the Lent starts. Definitely looking forward to the next 40 days. I'm hoping to write a bit everyday based on a Bible based devotional I have. It's my hope to speak the word and learn a little more as well.
And I realize more now than ever that I jump from topic to topic and I can ramble and I have adult ADD, but I forgot to mention that my new thing is to quote this one line for "Forgetting Sarah Marshall." Are you ready for it? HA, I bet you are...
"I'm Aldus Snow, bull-sh**, bull-sh**......" You know the rest. It's just funny the way she says it. It makes me crack up laughing.
What else? As you can see from my posts, I've been working out/running/walking a lot lately and I'm feeling better about myself so I've ordered some stuff from Forever 21 and I'm super pumped about it. I just can't wait - 2 coats (one for Nicole and one for me, although if mine doesn't fit, Jamie gets it for Christmas), 2 dresses (for Summer) and 1 SUPER cute top. They should arrive on Tuesday...whoo hoo.
Battery is about to die. Off to bed. I miss my husband. Haven't really seen him in a while. Strange to say I know. It's life sometimes...we're both so busy.
