Healthcare, weddings, tiger beats, OH MY!

THERES A LOT TO CATCH UP ON! I AM SORRY!

Welp, I've been extremely busy these past 10-12 days. I have a huge project coming up, sort of a mock trial type thing on the Health Care Reform, only mines a little different- ours hypothetically does not allow for exemptions based on religion and I am defending the government from those crazy amish up in lancaster county who hypothetically claim it is a violation of their free exercise.

I actually really don't want to write about this anymore because it's all i've thought about for a very long time.

Anyways, I babysat a total of 25 hours last week on top of school and other commitments, but did I let that stop me from going out? NO

After 8 hours straight of sitting friday night with 2-3 of those hours consumed by CLUE with a 10 and 11 year old... I realized that I could care less if it was Ms. Peacock or Ms. Scarlet in the ballroom or spa with the rope or trophy..... THATS RIGHT a TROPHY talk about exposing your children to violence at a young age as a contemporary issue. Hasn't clue been around for a while, maybe even before excessively graphic and violent video games... i mean in the game a woman could LITERALLY KILL YOU WITH A TROPHY.... it freaked me out.

Anyways, after that I needed a drink, I booked it home to change, then to pick up some kids before a party where I proceeded to play catch up with a 40oz and 3 shots of whiskey in an hour.... after a quote-battle from Summer Heights High with an off-the-boat Australian I passed out in Jams top bunk (thats right, bunk beds!!! talk about classic sleep overs.) but not before having pillow talk about tonsillitis? I can't really remember....

When I woke up at around 6:30 am, I had to play that game in my head called "where am i and do i need to be home early today?" and the answer to the latter was YES- you have a wedding to go to with your family!

I booked it home, showered, and after a stressful yelling session with my siblings and parents to "get to the church on time"... what wedding starts on time anyways. OH THIS ONE DID. We stopped so I could grab stockings, which ended up being "nude" and by "nude" i think they meant 10 shades darker than Snookie herself.... highlighted by my teal shoes, was quite the sight against my paleness of the rest of my body.

After taking full advantage of the open bar, the Thornton's hit the dance floor to dance to some classic wedding beats such as "Brick-house"... we managed to have a crowd around us, something new and different the Thornton's having to be center of attention-- it was a blast.

After my parents left, Pat and I continued to take full advantage of the bar.... and it was soon time to leave.

I passed out in the car, but not after making my brothers promise to wake me and rally so we could head over to ... wait for it-- TIGER BEATS at the BARBARY MY FAVORITE THING EVER!

I'm pretty sure I stole clothes out of my dirty hamper and didn't care... AT ALL-- It was really entertaining making pat attend a dive bar... especially when he's hammered. I think it was his first experience with the "hipster-scent" thats right SCENT not SCENE.... probably for the first 45 minutes he looked like he was going to throw up because of some hipsters body odor... something i think i'm getting used to (although at the Danger Danger Gallery earlier in the week, I some how I always get stuck next to the smelliest kid at shows...) although this time it was pat's turn hahahahahhe had is mouth covered and made me change places with him any time the Stinkster (my new word for smelly hipsters) danced a little too close

We danced until last call, and proceeded to Ginos (or was it pats.... i dunno i didn't get out of the car) where i split a cheesesteak with Kat and PASSED THE FUCK out in the backseat in the perfect blend of food coma, sweat, and drunken exhaustion (yes head rolled back mouth wide open)**correction added to satisfy Kats comment** not before I covered myself in an igloo of coats and other articles of clothing found in the back of the passat that is missing all 4 hubcaps...

I woke up in the middle of the night, SO THIRSTY I ran into the bathroom and rummaged around for something that could hold water (difficult to see when you fall asleep in your contacts and they leave your eyes dryer than the Sahara)... all i could find were those budget Dixie shot-glass size cups... and i took shots of water alternating hands until i was satisfied enough to fall back asleep.

Welp. Hope everyone's weekend was a splendid as mine. I can't wait for April 6th because then all the hard work in college is basically over, and I can go to tiger beats every monday night :D



keep it real.
