Killing in the name of

Day two = poo!
Sorry for the childish rhyme, had to get it out.
WHERE did I get so many clothes?! The amount of shirts, jeans, dresses, skirts, shoes, belts (<– hehe I do own some, never wear them, sorry to those of you who have been casualties of that one) is beyond ridiculous. And if you asked me right now, of COURSE I need new clothes. I don’t wear most of what I have, and while I often go through my closet to give stuff away, I tend to keep a lot of things for hypothetical situations that happen at most twice a year (i.e. intense cardio, high class afternoon tea with government officials, job shadowing an auto mechanic.) It is ALL currently dumped on the floor in my room (and has spilled into the hallway) and I have no plans of organizing anything before I leave (I bet you $1,000,000.50 that my mother just read that and shouted at my somewhere in the house something about ‘Get your ASS upstairs and hang up that stuff. I’m not going through it when you’re gone.’). There will be two piles: cruise, Germany. Luckily I’m much more prepared for the cruise since all of my “going out” clothes for IC don’t involve much material, I have zero idea how much/what I should be packing for Europe. I plan on just wearing my 713 shirt day in and out until people stop trying to befriend me and start whispering behind my back about “the smelly American who bursts into tears at the mention of bratwurst or Miley Cyrus.” I’m really planning on making quite the international reputation for myself.
DO.YOU.KNOW. where I’m going tonight? Wine Tea. Not just any tea, THE TEA my mother attends every Monday night with a handful of friends. They only call it “tea” because, I don’t know, they don’t want everyone to know there’s anything BUT tea flowing, and that the conversations are much more tame than “I’m going to smack my child <insert name> because they are such a <insert deragatory adjective> and while I’m at it, so is <insert name of significant other.>” (Haaa, I kid… kind of.) My brother calls it the DMC — Drunken Mother’s Club– but that’s not very nice. I suppose what they’re doing is no different than what NPH and I do on a nightly regular basis, or why Lauren and I get together usually once a week and bitch about our lives and our lack of male attention and ever-increasing waistlines. ANYWAY– I’m pretty pscyhed for this because 1.) I freakin’ love those ladies. They are bat shit crazy, in the nicest way possible. 2.) I will be getting out of this house. 3.) They will be all “Oooh fresh meat” and ask me questions about myself– and I hope you’ve all realized by now, I’m my number one favorite topic– that will probably center around “WHO is this Neil kid and WHEN are you getting married?!?!?!” And then I will calmly answer, “Never” and then text him “It’s happening again” and then he’ll offer to drive to Adel and run me down with his car to prove to the world that, in fact, we have ne’er seen each other naked.
Well now that I’ve completely forgotten any thesis I may have been trying to conclude upon, I will leave you and go FIND KAYLA since apparently she’s DIED en route or doesn’t realize this is our ONE DAY to hang out before I LEAVE possibly FOREVER. Or until May, whichever comes first.
