Sweet Catastrophe

Phew! I found a great dress! It’s brown and light blue (Ashley’s wedding colors are brown and pink) and it’s 3/4 sleeves so no arm flab! It’s pretty thin material too, so it won’t be too warm or anything.

Of course, buying a brown dress totally threw me off. I was all set with a black clutch and black shoes….now what?! After way too much searching, I finally found some brown shoes. See, the dress is like a deep chocolate brown, almost black, so it was hard to find shoes that looked right and didn’t just clash. No luck on a new clutch though. I’ve got a little tan canvas handbag I’ll just use. It’ll be better than my huge bag anyway.

This will probably be the first time I’ve worn heels twice in one week in a loooooong time….if ever. Be proud of my extreme girliness this week.

I talked to James yesterday. He’s really excited about us getting there. He wishes we’d come a little earlier so we’d all have more time together outside of him doing all his wedding stuffs.

I’ve been thinking the past few days how proud I am of my brothers. They’ve both had really sketchy pasts. I mean honestly, they’ve gone from drug rehab to preaching. Well, actually I think Rocky Joe was the only one to actually end up in rehab, but James definitely had to have a breathalyzer in his vehicle.

Their current lifestyles aren’t exactly what I want for myself, but they’ve really made something of themselves and I’m so happy for them both. I still can’t believe Rocky Joe is married and has two kids….where’d my horndog brother go?! Haha!

I can’t wait till James and Ashley are expecting. I know they plan on waiting a while, but Ashley’s gonna be such an adorable pregnant woman. And those kids are gonna look like little angels, for certain.

Ryan’s cooking me dinner now =) Most of my stuff is packed, just waiting on one more load of clothes and then I’ll finish throwing everything in my suitcase. I’ve got all Kristi’s stuff together too, just gotta drop it off at the post office tomorrow.

Oh and I totally passed my Astronomy test, thanks to Andrew and his amazingness! I owe him cookies, for real.
