Tires and fires..

I took my car in for it's 30k check up and found out my tires were bald!  Oops, too much drag racing out at Shakey's apparently, so I had to put four new tires on and so they say "we're going to put nitrogen in your tire" but what I hear is "we're going to put nitrous" and that's where I stopped listening because I was psyched!  Needless to say they did not put NOS in my car but oh how I wish they would have!  Anyway they hooked me up with some pretty hot windshield wipers flushed the transmission and what not and scooted me out the door after hitting me up for five large, but hey my car looks cool.  Tonight is the company Christmas party where I have been assured that my chances are pretty high to win a massive plasma tv, and well..beings that I am the type of girl who loves tech hardware, that is right up my alley, me: Sure you can steal my Coach purse if I can have your wireless gamer headset.  Speaking of, last night I had my weekly gamer night and it was a hit, and may I say that I love that my friends have come around and really loosened up and embraced their inner children with my new XBOX, "which had to be calibrate to my voice which I learned last night" because since I bought it I kept feeling like it was ignoring me, I was starting to think my new game system was a bit misogynistic or at least made by a few; but I digress, tomorrow I am taking one of my dearest friends to the ballet with me, and I am so excited for the next 24 hours that I better scoot.  Wish me luck on my fitting today for my fancy New Years duds!

Dresses and touchdowns...

All I can say is that it was a disappointing game and leave it there.  Yesterday I decided to have my New Year's dress made for me by my neighbor and dear friend Pam, "for a reasonable fee" considering she only has a month to make it.  I am so unbelievably excited; so last night my pal Alecia and I went to Hancock Fabrics at The Farm in Tulsa, and the sales people were so helpful to making sure my seamstress had everything she needed for the pattern I picked out which is a Vintage Vogue circa 1957 "the longer sleeve dress" considering it'll be January, I got to pick out the zipper and thread and binding and I learned a lot about material and I kept thinking to myself "I should have payed attention in home ec"! Anyway I have the pearls, and am getting the gloves and black heels and a little clutch to complete my themed look for our groups themed New Year's Party where I intend on dancing the night away with my friends.  If this dress turns out half as good as I think it will, I would love to have several made in different variations of this 50's design, and I will unabashedly wear this to church, and feel like a total girl!  My friends are saying I should go get my hair done up in some up do and don the red lipstick and really get into it, so I think I might.
