Hi! Friends, Romans, Countrymen, Tracy... Okay, I'm very sorry it's been awhile. I took a little break and caught up with some sleep. Sweet ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZs!
I had an exciting weekend pretending to be a glam girl again. My Nanu, and one of my closest friends from college traveled to Austin (aka 6th St)for the weekend. So fun!
Let me tell you I do not miss being single in the meat market of the world. I wasn't out to meet and greet, mostly needed an excuse to find a great outfit with ridiculous shoes and accesorries I will never wear again. Again, so fun. Really, I wanted a good time to primp with sparkly eye shadow and "Big Tex" my hair. (So happy that's back in style. However, I still used Nanu ceramic straightener, blow dryer, then hot rollers. Oh, gotta love the damage and MORE joyous split ends.)
Truthfully, after all these years, I still like a dance floor and the buzz of crowded streets with silly adults playing with too much adult beverage.
There's a spirit in the air in Austin. Sometimes I want to capture it again, like a lightning bug, only to open up the jar in the morning and let it fly off.
It was good times reuniting with this spirit, but it's really good to be home in flip flops, chasing after laughing little girls and their stinky, dirty diapers and making little boys sandwiches with cookie cutters. I'll let those lightning bugs sparkle in their own light. Meanwhile, I think I might break out a little eyeshadow, turn up the music, and let Will flicker the lights while Avery and I spin in circles.

Now that's a good girl! I smiled the whole time reading this one. I wouldn't give up this life for anything in the world. I am supposed to go to Austin this weekend for my best friend's bachelorette party, but I just can't bring myself to do so. No sitter, but that is TOTALLY OK! BIlly is more sad about it than I am. When you do your at home dancing, call me! I will would love to cut the rug fantasia! Tell SIr Mix-a-lot Master William to call us.
LOL sounds like fun! you know, i've never been out on 6th street? i'm a communist, I know! LOL glad you had fun and that you returned home to dance with the kiddos!
