Low on the Go!

Can i just say...

how much i detest big groups? True words, yo. Hanging out in groups of more than four people is killer! KILLER! i cannot exaggerate enough how much big groups bring my demise, a mere 2 hours later. For an introvert, large groups are a nightmare.

So imagine the nightmare i have been in when i discovered that this wasn't just a family vacation, but that we were renting a 15 passenger van, and it was actually going to be a THREE FAMILY + my cousin vacation.

Oh Lord, have mercy.

But, it isn't all that bad, i suppose. One can hardly complain when they're basking in 10 degree glory (hey, Edmonton was COLD okay?) and shopping at Anthropologie. Or when the offer from the parental units to buy one a Coach bag ("It's 50% off, honey!" "Yeah, 50% off of 400 is still 200 dollars!) is rendered (i politely declined). And, yesterday, in an effort to get rid of the three-week-no-exercise belly and vent my frustrations at the fact that i am driving in a 15 passenger van with fobby parents and horny 16-18 year old boys (did i mention that there are no girls my age, or girls under the age of 40, for that matter, on this trip? Well, there aren't.), i ran a grand total of 4 miles (for those of you on RSS feeds, sorry, i cannot do math!!).

So i guess it isn't all that bad. And all those pickup lines i've learned from the horny teenage boys?

i'm sure they'll come in useful someday.

or not.


Merry Christmas, y'all. Have a good one, ya hear?
