Skatetown. Really Just Everything I Did Today. Bleh.

Hi!
Wow-my first blog in a while that's not about a dream...cool! Told you I'd have something relatively interesting to say. Or maybe this isn't. I need an excuse to blog.

So after weeks of asking our parents, they finally gave in to letting Alex and I go to Skatetown for the day. We've done this before-and it's a lot of fun. I'm just going to write about the whole day.

Time: 5:00 am-Super loud thunder. So much that my cat, Izzie (who officially loves me now..aww) jumps onto my bed next to my head and shakes. So I pet her for a bit, then the power goes out. Nothing big, I'm supposed to be sleeping anyway. Finally I go back to sleep.
Time: 7:25 am-I wake up to my super annoying alarm clock. Even though the power's still out, the annoying buzzer still works. I don't know why the Ipod didn't work. I wake up and roll out of bed and get my new pink robe (pink with white polka dots. it rules :D) and right when I put my robe on, the power comes back! Suddenly my computer's on and my alarm clock works. I watch TV, eat breakfest, twitter, check websites, then finally get in the shower.
Time: 9:45-Texted Alex three times to see if she's ready, and turns out she just got up. She brushes her teeth, while I wait for my dad to get ready. I walk around my room for a little bit, and finally he's ready.
Time: 11:00-In the car, about to arrive at Skatetown. Dad had to stop at some clients and we got Chic-Fil-A (however you type that out :p). Finally, we arrive at Skatetown. We get our skates on, which was interesting because we hadn't skated since May. We got on the floor and notice that just these two eight year olds and a mom were there. At least we have the rink to ourselves mostly.
Time: Idk-Summer camp kids arrive. This means busloads of little six year olds (about 50 of them) brought here for a "field trip" when they don't know how to skate. There were about three camps. So the rink got super crowded for a while. Alex and I still skated for a bit. Before the kids came, I won a game of Red Light, Green Light. Only because there were five people playing, and I had no real competition. Alex and I found the candy crane machine, and ate so many Tootsie Rolls. We went back on the rink and skated them off :). I loved that they played three Taylor Swift songs. Our Song, Fearless, and Love Story. Of course, I was lip-singing to all of them. And doing pathetic dance moves. I hope Alex didn't see... o_O
Time: 3:40-Finally the little kids leave. Now there's about ten people on the rink, which is so much better. Our feet were horribly sore, but we wanted to make the most of the time we had left there. That's when I noticed that today is Alex's half birthday! Happy Half Birthday, Alex! Mine's on August 16th (beware). To celebrate her half birthday, I bought us a funnel cake. We left powder all over the table. We skate a little more, but at 3:55 we just give up and take off the skates. Our feet were so unbelievably sore. It's always interesting trying to walk after wearing skates for roughly five hours. Flip-flops, no less. At last, Dad comes to take us home.

After that we dropped Alex of, and I proceded to go to twitter, then lay on the couch for two hours. Hope that wasn't too boring of a day. I'm so tired. Again, I'll update whenever I have something interesting to say or rant about.

Comments are funny to read :-)

Oh, and the song I'm listening to now is Closer To Love by Mat Kearney. Love it.
