Well folks, its close to midnight and I'm almost ready for sleepy-time.
Almost.
After a full day with Billy (who, incidentally, began showing symptoms of a cold toward the afternoon and was asking to go to the doctor by three o'clock), I fufilled my promise and took Tricia clothes shopping when she returned home from school.
I left a sniffling Billy with Ed and drove 45 minutes, in the rain mind you, to Jersey Shore Premium Outlets so Tricia could spend a little of her birthday loot.
"Why am I doing this?" I asked, as we sat in rush-hour traffic on the Parkway.
"Because you love me!" was the response.
We got down there fairly late, but Tricia was in heaven shopping at her new favorite store, Rue 21. If the girls do decide on Eighties Girls for their MNSSHP costumes, they will be able to assemble their outfits here... all the eighties stuff is back!
Jelly bracelets, fluorescent colors, even checkered sneakers and leg warmers!!
(Although now I'm told they are thinking of joining the Pirate crew with Ed, Billy, and me.)
I think we did all right. Tricia did a lot of trying-on, but in the end we came away with:
Rue 21: Tricia: 3 shirts and a bracelet. Billy: 2 t-shirts. Me: Black lace fingerless gloves for my Pirate Queen costume.
Charlotte Russe: Tricia: 1 dress and more bracelets.
Crocs Outlet: Billy: 1 Jibbitz (LGM from Toy Story) Me: 1 Jibbitz (A replacement Goofy... mine lost an ear somehow.)
And, may I have a drumroll, please! Ed: 1 pair of black Cayman Crocs!!!
(He swears he will only wear them around the house!!) He specifically told me not to get him Jibbitz, but I got him a skull 'n crossbones for fun! I also purchased some Crocs butter... my Lime Greenies are looking a bit worse for wear!
Tricia absolutely refused to get a pair of Crocs... so now she is my only holdout!
On the way home, I stopped for tissues and cold medicine for my poor Billy... I'm glad that I'm home with him this week already. At least he won't have to miss any school.
Oh Goody! It's past Midnight!
Now, I can officially say that we are under 200 Days!!
ONLY 199 Days til Disney!!!
Good Night!

for 199!! Getting closer!!
I know, I know... still a loooong way to go!
, BTW. I finally got sick of my boring old lorispeck user name and re-joined with GlassSlippers. I could not for the life of me figure out how to change just the user name!
