I *am* posting today because I am a champ. But something I was not a champ at today was looking like a normal, presentable human being.
My day started at 5:15 after about three hours of sleep because whenever I know that I need to be up early the next day, my brain is all, OHMAHGODWEGETTODOSOMETHINGDIFFERENTTOMORROWWEWEWESOEXCITED
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYSTAYUPFOREVAHHHHH!!!!!!
Which is just great.
So I got up at 5 AM and got ready.
Let me state, for the record, that I was not proud of my appearance today. I didn't have the foresight to leave any decent clothes unpacked so I had to clothe myself from the dregs of my closet. However, by 5 AM standards, I was ready to walk the freakin' red carpet. You know, maybe the red carpet of an animated prequel that was released only in Argentina before being destroyed in shame by all involved.
Unfortunately, the rest of the world does not judge people by 5 AM standards.
Generously, my look could be described as 90's hobo + soldier from Mulan chic. I figure that a hobo could get a hold of my nice, acid-washed jeans, popular in the 80's, by the 90's. Coupled with my excessively over-large t-shirt, I had the 90's look down. Then, not wanting to deal with my hair during the 12 hours of driving we did today, I pulled all my hair up in a tight little bun on the tippity top of my head. Add to that 3 hours of sleep and no makeup (so maybe I should throw 'crazy vampire eyes' in my list too) and I was a sight.
After 12 hours of being in a car, I looked and felt something like this:
So, after our time in the car we go to Ruby Tuesdays to get dinner. When I go in to get a table the hostess greets me mindlessly. Then she looks me up. She looks me down. And then starts looking at where to put me, so as to minimize the infliction of this upon humanity. She calls over another hostess. Finally, somebody tells me to follow them and I am led to a table waaaaaay in the back, next to all the children.
Then the waiter brought over a priest and a crucifix and tried to save me from the demon inside me. Just kidding. But only barely. And by that I mean he rushed me and didn't refill my water even once.
I don't generally look like this, so I was in a fun social experiment today, as promised in previous posts. See, I'm reliable!
Anyways, I don't know if I'll be posting tomorrow or Sunday still, so don't get your hopes up just because I was a was an overachiever today.
Stay cool!
