thoughts on st thomas: part three
1. i got all bit up by bugs last night. and i'm not so allergic that it is a medical emergency when i get bit. but just allergic enough to have each bite swell into a golf ball. well, a mini golf ball.
2. i got up all early and junk to go to a fashion show that was just different girls wearing different sarongs. um, yeah...
3. i get a whole half day with b today! the highlight of this trip thus far. we will be sunning and shading alternately for the afternoon and later tonight i will get to wear my dress that i bought on clearance from target for...wait for it...$13. and personally i think it's a beaut. (which you figured, right? because why else would i buy it?)
4. i've got, what i would call, and half tan. as in, i'm halfway to the tan for which i am longing. it feels incredibly good to not be as pastey pale as i was just last week. i look better in color. and b agrees.
5. pretty much the highlight of my life: i'm getting ready to sun. b's getting ready to roundtable. i'm applying suntan lotion and am all suited up and b looks at me and says "how did i get to marry this sexy girl??" so i'm pretty much conceited now, haha. ok, not really but for real. how did i get to marry that wonderful boy?
6. we've been lounging almost every night in the outdoor bar area with couple-friends from the conference. one of the best things that will come out of this whole trip may be a better friendship with them. we live in close proximity back home and they're a lot of fun. so pretty much a win-win.
7. i'm trying to be more positive but it comes in waves. i want to thank you for not cussing me out and calling me names because i am full of negativity. i'm trying to gain some perspective but am very in-the-moment right now and it's hard. but, there was not crazy music late last night. and i'll take any small victory i can get :)
xoxo
