I feel exhausted and a bit off today.

I know why I’m tired.  My brother and his friends decided to come back from the bar around 12:30pm and party at our house.  I honestly don’t know why they still do this.  We have a deal that on weeknights, no one comes over after 11pm, especially if they’ve been drinking at a bar beforehand.  But I got woken up to elephants stomping upstairs, so I came up to tell them to leave and one’s in my freezer, two more are running out the door cause they heard me coming, and my brother just goes “What?”

I give them a half hour on the porch – “Everyone gone by 1pm and be quiet.  I don’t want to hear anything”

At 1:15pm they are so loud that I can hear them over the sound of the fan in my room – they are outside on the front porch, so of course the neighbours can hear too – I go up to kick them out and there’s about 8 people having a party on my porch.

I hate kicking people out, especially when some of them are my friends too, but I told everyone to leave.

I had a bit of an anxiety attack about it and kept Chad and I both up until about 3am.  Then I tossed and turned til my alarm went off at 9am.  I would’ve slept in, but I had to get up and eat so I could make it to the gym for 11.  UGH!

I ended up being 10 min late to the gym, was super tired and not up to the energy level I usually am, so I didn’t have the greatest workout, and my calves are still so sore from the Saturdy leg day.  I’ve fallen behind on the gym posting, but I’ll get around to it as soon as Carl sends me what we did.

Now it’s 4:40pm and I’m taking a break from work.  It’s been such a busy day and it’s harder to concentrate when you feel off.  I feel like I’m in the beginning stages of fighting a cold.  I think it’s just the crazy weather we’ve been having.

I’m looking forward to bed tonight.

What a complainy post.  I feel better now that I got it all out.

To brighten up the post, here is Kristin and I in Pixie Swizzel mode at the 2008 Clothing Show.  We had a booth every year for four years and took the last two seasons off.  We’re thinking about taking part in the Fall one this year, but not sure yet.
