All I Want Is A Can Of Coke

I was going to post Motzei Shabbat but i did not have time since i was called up somewhere between 11 and 12 to drive a bunch of girls to walmart to buy stuff to make shtick then i hung out and attempted to help and then gave up since i was tired but let us rewind to what shabbat was like.
Friday night i was just sitting and pondering and i thinking about August 22 and sitting at the airport and waiting for my flight and then sitting on the plane and then flying back to smelly ny. Then i remember how much i hate that feeling especially the thought of sitting there by myself. Then i decided that i wasn't gonna go back to ny. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay. I informed my parents, they ignored me. I informed my sister. She said she flies to ny by herself all the time i said well that's ok cuz she's old and she said I'm old and i said oh no I'm not I'm only 19 and she said wow ur little and i said ha, see! and she and alyssa (who was here for shabbat) both said but u'll be 20 soon and i said shut up and walked out of the room. So thanks to my revelation friday night there will be no smelly ny this fall! (Rachel, be happy, this blog will be used for its true purpose)
My sister woke me up shabbat morning around 9:30 (i think, i mean this did all happen years ago so everything is a bit fuzzy) and my original plan was to make my shul debut at Ohr (HaTorah) cuz Rebecca was eating over so i should escort her to my humble abode but then my family informs me that we must go to the Ufrof (how am i supposed to spell that?) at Young Israel so then I'm in a pickle since I'm only informed about this once shabbat starts and Rebecca thinks I'm meeting her at shul but i need to be at the other shul (don't forget we are having guests over and they are davening at the other shul) so i decide I'll go for the ufrof part and then I'll get to Ohr in time for kiddush (which is when i was planning on getting there) and we will all live happily ever after. So it all works out. I arrive at Ohr and the looks on my friends faces (who i have not seen in at least a month if not more) were priceless, only Rebecca knew i was coming. It was all cute to see everyone and la de da.
Lunch was nice. Food was good (of course). I had wanted to sit outside after lunch to just stare at the sun and have the sun stare back at me and my skin but Rebecca was all 'its hot outside' and didn't like my idea of sitting outside while eating popsicles cuz then only our mouths would be cold and our bodies would still be hot but she did agree to go on a walk. We walked to my old house which was knocked down and now a nice new house is being built there. It's kinda nice. It brought back lots of memories. I miss the good old days. Memories were also brought back when i went to Young Israel since they are doing construction on their building so right now they have davening in i think tsippis first house when the mold attacked and wow major summer before 11th grade flashbacks. I miss being little. Snort on growing up. Anyways, it was really hot it and i thought i was going to pass out. I didn't. We got back to my house and then me and Rebecca both fell asleep for a bit. Don't worry Rachel, she slept on my bed but she was only allowed on top of my blanket and her head was not on my head area and i hope her feet weren't on the bed. Shoot, now i don't know if they were. Totally freaking out.
Went went to Seuda Shlishit at the Kallahs house. It was really cute. Being around all the wedding stuff makes me wanna get married. Not want to have a marriage. Just the shabbat kallah and the wedding day. That's all. Nothing more. They had the cutest cupcake holder display thingy that i sooo fell in love with and wanna get. I didn't get home til way after shabbat, Rachel was worried. And then later i went to walmart (where i bought a bag that i thought was cute but i wasn't sure if i should get but then i saw it was on clearance for $3 so duh i had to buy it) and la de da. Came home around 1:30 a.m. Stayed up all night talking to Hinda on the phone and having a facebook wall war. I didn't get to bed until almost 5 which was not a smart decision on my part since i knew i had a busy day ahead of me. Are you guys ready for this, cuz i don't think you are. Here goes....
Phone rings at 9:38 a.m. - i am woken up but i do not answer the call. A few minutes later my mom comes into my room (sisters orders) to make sure I'm up cuz the girls that are in town for the wedding want to do something today and I'm gonna be involved somehow. Whatever. Around 10:15 or so my phone rings again and its the same person that called who woke me up and they need a ride downtown for 6 girls cuz they want to see where JFK was killed and go to the museum and all and ya. Why that is so exciting is beyond me. The truck seats 5 so i need another driver so i call up ppls and arrange for another driver and the plane is to pick up the girls at 11:30 and drive them downtown (which is about 20 minutes away) and pick them up a few hours later. Fine. So that's all good. I get them there. I find my way back without getting lost. I decide to stop off at DSW since it is tax free weekend so what does it hurt to see if there are some shoes i wanna get. I get bored and don't feel like searching around so then i go to Dillards to look at dresses since it is the day of the wedding and we all know i hate my wedding outfit so now is the perfect time to go find a new one. I get bored after 5 minutes and go home. It's now about 1 and my dad wants me to eat something even tho i don't really want to but i give in and eat a slice of pizza. Then at 2 the girls call and say they are ready to be picked up. So my mom and i were going to pick them up but the other car we needed to pick them up with was with my sister who was getting ready for the wedding at the shul and so i had to first take them to get the car and then i went back downtown (shout out to Rachel for not really entertaining me while driving down there) and got the girls and then some girls decided they wanted to go to galleria since they didn't need 3 hours to get ready for the wedding. So i tell them I'm totally cool with taking them there but i need to start getting ready for the wedding so they need to give me a half an hour of shower time and then i can pick them up. So drop them off but one of them doesn't wanna go so i take that one back to the house and i run into the shower and thank G-d i had about an hour before they called and were ready to be picked up. So then i go and pick them up and as I'm driving there i notice the sky is really dark and the wind is really strong and things are blowing everywhere. Great time for a storm. So i pick them up and I'm on my way back and a different girl calls me and asks if i could take her to the shul cuz she needs to be there now and has no ride so I'm already in the car so hey, why not. So i drop of the girls and pick up the other one and it starts to rain. Yip-ee. My phone had been ringing all. day. long. I'm one street away from home and then my dad calls and says that Sara needs a straightener brought to the shul and i say i just came from there and i need to get ready for the wedding so yay my dad brings it to her. So it's now 4:45 and the Kabbalat Panim is at 6. The only thing i did to get ready for the wedding was shower. And i still had to say Tehillim for the Kallah and i was running out of time. So i get my hair done. And it looks fine, i guess. The real pickle came when it was time for eye make up cuz normally my sis or cousin does it but my sis just had to be a bridesmaid and was busy all day long and my cousin doesn't live here and so i was stuck doing it myself so i stole all my sisters make up since she likes to spend more money on it than me and did it myself and it looked good. Yay! I didn't get to the wedding so late. I probably got there a little after 6 which isn't so bad. And when i was there other girls were still saying tehillim so it was all good. Now really i wanna write about how much i heart Israeli weddings but i just wrote out the world and its almost 2 a.m. despite what time it says this thing was written even tho i can change the time i don't feel like it. Maybe I'll write about the wedding tomorrow. I must get sleep. 5 hours isn't enough....
