Thunderstorms.

Note: I absolutely love thunderstorms--I think they perhaps are one of the most romantic things on earth.

Today was an eventful and productive day for me--it felt pretty good to be so busy that I didn't have time to sit down (that's what I'm used to and I like it!). I woke up this morning bright and early and headed out to get working on building a deck for a friends family. After nearly six hours of decking, I came home to shower, change and get on with the day. I then headed down to 17th Ave some girl time with friends. We went into most stores and browsed as our jaws hit the floors over some of the prices. There was this one jacket that I tried on from "Purr"--it was 50% off and still at that discount it was too expensive for me. We all had a blast just trying on clothes and matching, everywhere we went Liz and I tried on matching jackets (a guy at one of the stores even noticed that we did this and commented on it). After shopping (as much as you can call it shopping when you don't buy anything haha) and getting hit on by this foreign guy on the street who could barely put a proper English sentence together, we headed over to Melrose for a small bite to eat. As we headed back to our cars at the end of the day, Liz pulled out a present for me--my first thought was, "It was her birthday recently...not mine..." Apparently a couple years back on my 18th birthday she said she was going to find me the perfect present (I have no recollection of this) and now, almost two years later, she found it. I unwrapped it to find a game titled, "Dirty Minds", it was funny but I didn't know if it was a good or bad thing that she thought it was the perfect present for me haha. Anyways, it's a game of dirty clues that have perfectly innocent answers. The trick is not thinking of the dirty answer and finding the perfectly clean one. I think I'm going to get some friends over this weekend to play it, I could see it being a good time.

Now here I am, finally home and it's hailing golf balls (no jokes--I can hear them hitting the roof hard). Looks like I came inside just in time! Anyways, here I am, changed out of my skirt into my sweat pants (it's the way to live) and going to have a relaxing night. As dorky as it sounds I'm going to catch up on some reading, work on a couple gifts and just relax (that is unless something else tempts me to go out). I look forward to it--especially because I have to get up to take my parents to the airport at 5:30am.

Enjoy the weather everyone!
