big day!

yesterday was a big day! not only did i sleep for 11 hours of uninterrupted awesomeness, i got a new dress that has pterodactyls on it, a couple sequins, too! cannot wait to wear it. i saw the dress a few weeks ago, maybe even a month or more, i can't remember when i was downtown with the option of window shopping, but i saw it and ooh and ahhed over it. then yesterday i was headed in for a haircut, the first in over a year, the 2nd in over 2 years. i had 20 minutes, so i checked on my phone to see if the dress was even still potentially available. and yes it was! and it was on sale! so i boogied on over there, the girl came up and asked if she could help me, she was wearing the dress so i said, i have come to get that dress! they don't hold items, so i had to try it on super fast, totally loved it, found out that not only was it on sale but it was an additional 60% off the sale price - HOORAY! so bam - i'll totally take it.
off to get my hair cut! love love love the guy that cuts my hair, awesomest haircutter in the world, although he spent prolly a 1/2 hr or more blow drying it, and then he did some awesome fantasy curls and it looked amazingly lovely! and then i went out in the rain. i continued to do some shopping along, not really looking for anything in particular but wound up taking the leap and getting a pair of black skinny pants. it was scary but its time. until i was heading home and walked through the juniors department at nordstrom and found some even better black skinny jean things for way less! so today i had to go take the other ones back.
friday tow of my gfs were so nice as to take me to costco to get some very important training aides! both are protein related and the body builder guy that was there sampling out some mystery bar called Diabetes or something was chatting me up all about the 6lbs of protein. he was nice, and actually i should have asked him more about it, but sushi was waiting!! should be interesting, but better not get huge, i just bought new pants - they better still fit at the end of the summer.
friday eric and the kids made the trip to go pick up my NEW BIKE! he spent all weekend putting it together since it came in the most tiniest pieces imaginable, but it looks awesome fast AND i rode it for a bit on the trainer. hooray! sooo exciting!
today took a ride around the lake with 9 of the girls! it was cold, hovering at just about 40, but there were a few peaks of sun and no rain! it was a good day, but now i am tired and want to take a nap but along with my bike brought home a bunch of the grandparent's neighbor's cow, so that is what's for dinner.
