Carpe Diem

So today I spent the day with my mom and brother, which was nice. We went shopping and stuff. I got Raquel's birthday present, and I hope she likes it. Actually I just hope I finish it in time, haha. I worked on that for a while until dad got home and we ate dinner together, just me and him, because my mom had to go to work and my brother was playing guitar hero or something in his room. Then, I went to Dressbarn to visit my mom, and to try on dresses for fun. And you know, it really was fun. I ended up buying three, because they were all on sale plus my mom gets a discount, so I spent sixty bucks on three really nice dresses. I'll make good use of them during spring break (Ashton girl, you've got some shopping to do!). But there was no one else in the store while I was there except my mom and her manager, Jill, who was really nice and admired all of my escapades and told me what she liked and what she didn't like. I danced around the dressing room to Michael Bublé like a lunatic, pretending I was in a ballroom with some handsome future husband. I'm weird, what can I say? Then I came home and danced in them some more. I love to dance too, no matter how much I suck— who's going to see me? I danced to Brooke Waggoner and the Beatles. HA. Then I showed them to my dad while he watched UNC basketball (he gets irked when I call him a band-wagoner, but seriously, how much did he watch it before this year?) and he admired them too. 

It was sunny today. Sunny and cold, and everything was glinting and shining off of the snow, which is melting at its own luxurious pace. It felt good to be outside, even though all I was doing was shopping. The air smelt like Minnesota, which is a strange thing to say if you've never been there. But it did. Tomorrow is going to be sunny too, and I'm meeting Amanda for breakfast, then going to Mrs Dell's house to chill out, and then to Chick-Fil-A for a training session. I'm looking forward to it all. Then on Friday I work for a little bit, and on Saturday as well. Then I think I'm spending the night at Ashton's house; we'll see. I like working now, and I'm glad it's finally turned out that way. Plus, I like the people I work with, which is such a big plus. 

I guess that's all I have to say for now. Time to go greet mom, since she just walked in the door...
