Indoor Girls

I really need to paint my toenails. I managed to clip them the other day because one had broken at an awkward angle, but I'm still at the point where 3 nails have chippy paint on them and the other 2 are basically nonexistent. I suppose I could have done that last night, but instead I was choosing a cover photo (Facebook finally forced me to switch to timeline- curse you Zuckerberg) then watching House with Allie while making s'mores over a candle. Jolly good.

Having my hair straight is so nice. It's so much less of a hassle to deal with. Like, I don't have to put it up or braid it to go to sleep and can just brush it out in the morning and go. How easy! Alas, after the show tonight it'll be gone until this weekend when I blow-dry/straighten again (this will add up to one show tomorrow with an unruly bonnet). Our show has been getting really good reviews so far. We have a rating of 4.5/5 stars, and even the unfavorable reviews had specific things they didn't like (the dance...) while saying the talent is good (that's all that really matters to me). So I'm feeling pretty good about this show! Hopefully we'll have a bigger crowd tonight, but the theatre we're in is so large that filling up all of the seats would be a feat unto itself. Dare to dream?

After the show tonight, I'm staying over at my aunt Meg's house, since originally we had planned something for next week but with the road trip now imma be gone. We're most likely going to watch Lifetime's "The Pregnancy Pact" and eat popcorn. In haste this morning when I was packing up all my stuff for the show and overnight, and because I've been feeling like I've been eating too much lately and not working out because of my schedule, I didn't bring a lunch for today. Hopefully I won't get hungry, just have to fill up on coffee and water until dinner. Womp.

Gas prices can suck it. I was planning on filling up today, when I was driving to work yesterday/picking up lunch for Gerry, it was at $3.61-3.65. Then as I was leaving work, the usually cheap gas station that I drive by was at $3.85. What the what?? You can't just jump 20 cents in 3 hours! I checked my gas buddy finder thing, and saw one place was still at $3.63, so I headed there. I couldn't see their sign until I pulled into the parking lot, and by then it was too late! I was obligated! And I was afraid that it would go up more today. $3.83 per gallon. I'm really mad, I got cheated out of at least $2, with my total at $40 and some change. Ridiculous. I have a bug, not an SUV.
