That's pretty frikkin' cute! Although she did crawl up my leg and into my coat and fall asleep at one point, I didn't get very much work done in the morning because of cute distraction. After I got Carrie home in the afternoon for her split-shift, Carrie took over watching her, and I officially finished the Fashion Show handouts! Yee-haw! I put them on a disc and walked them down to the store for Missa. I noticed she had a new piece of jewelry but she didn't mention it so neither did I. As I was walking home she called and said there was a problem with one of the pages, so when I got home I made the changes and emailed them off. And that, as they say, is that.
Carrie & Bea ended up sleeping for most of the afternoon. Well, Carrie slept for most of the afternoon. While I was working on the Fashion Show handouts Bea would periodically come and try to "help" me work.
It was a li'l distracting again. But fortunately Carrie kept her occupied most of the afternoon. I made a quick trip to the bonk and picked up some chotlate house cream while I was there.
After I took Carrie back to teach her class I took a shower and then walked over to Missa's house to help celebrate her birthday (which was actually on the 5th) and Lawrence's actual 25th birthday. Geoff and Katie both stopped by for the middle of the party, and several of Lawrence's fellow New Orleans refugees also showed up. Carrie was dropped off by Paige after class.
Not only was it Missa's birthday party, though; the day before (her actual brithday) she'd gotten a call on the congratumaphone. It was about that new piece of jewelry that I mentioned earlier. Y'know, the kind with a diamond in it and you wear it on the ring finger of your left hand.
I got plenny tipsy on wine at the party (see the post before this one), and had some excellent marshmallow-topped cake made by Christine. Carrie and I walked home afterwards. I stayed up for about an hour because I was wary of going to bed without sobering up some first. I also drank about 25 liters of water. So I felt basically fine this morning—just a little tired from staying up late, but no hang-over effects at all.
