What I Did During My Beach Vacation

Cassius loves new shoes. Nine West heels are his fave.

Nothing. I did nothing.

I sat in a beach cabana and stared at the Gulf of Mexico for hours on end. And it was everything I dreamed it would be.

It was awesome, but not as awesome as the new shoes I got! The Tall Drink of Water was all, "How are you going to get them all into your suitcase?" And I was all, "Oh, they'll fit."

Then he was all, "Do you really need three pairs of red shoes? They all kinda look the same."

Then I broke up with him. Sad.

This is the first weekend we've been in town that my friend Lori hasn't visited. The first weekend she came down for girls night out at the Gypsy Hut. Hello, 80s night! And though we probably hadn't spent an entire weekend together since high school, we easily drifted back to those days - clowning, shopping, going out.

The next weekend she brought her kids and we went the Aquarium, which was waaaay more exhausting than dancing all night.

I'm not sure what to do with myself this weekend with her not here. She should come back to live. She did send me this hilarious text message while I was in Florida, though.


GIRRRL. I saw you up on BETs spring bling in your gold bathing suit from Old Navy. DON'T HATE.




(Said suit, which we saw while shopping and which I'd never, ever wear, unless I was at BETs Spring Bling.)
