Faire was kick ASS this weekend.
Wait, lemme start from Friday.
So Friday I went home and napped after work. I don't know how I made it home I was so tired from the night before. Woke up, Jared & I bounced to Chez Warwick, and we chilled for a bit before crashing.
I was like, scared to go to sleep. Cause I just didn't want to throw up anymore. I had a nice 2.5 hour nap was trying to figure out if that was my "safe" time. If I should set an alarm to wake me up 2.5 hours after I went to sleep. Although, I thought that it was STUPID. I should just try to see if the meds would work.
They did. I slept for 7 hours STRAIGHT. Didn't even have to pee! It was awesome :D
So, a decidedly more perkie Nikki flipped to faire. Had a fantastic day of bouncing around. It was crowded as all hell, considering the rain we had in the morning.
The cast party was AWESOME. I had such a good time bsing with everyone. The superlatives were a RIOT. Food was deeellicccious.
Sunday was crazy. Through some mass of miscommunication, I wasn't woken up until Bill was like "Hey, Nik... it's like, 7:35..." ACK! I was supposed to LEAVE by 7:30.
Oh well.
So I was late. Did mah thang. Bumped into my friend Judy and her mom, Donna, that I hadn't seen in, OOOH, 9 years. CRAZY!!! So I took them to Medea, and we chatted for a bit and caught up. It was great!
Then, later, I bumped into my friend Lauren, and her new husband Sean!! I hadn't seen her in like, FIVE years. Was like old reunion weekend :)
I sold... *drumroll* FIFTY FIVE roses!!! I think that's a new record for me!!!
I was so pleased with myself. I'm not the greatest at this rose thing, but I'm happy.
Katrina is lucky I love her soul, cause next weekend is her wedding, which also happens to be the reveal day on the romance wars. So alllll these wars I've been involved in, I'm not going to see the reveal too! DAAMMMMITT!!! But alas, I shall hear stories Sunday.
Sunday I have a goal of 60 roses. OH YES. I can do it. Last day at faire? PuhSHAW. If people aren't buying roses they should be buying something else, dammit. :D
It's all in the name of commerce.
And here I am. Again.
Oh, and I hate my skin. It looks so awful. So completely awful. The new soaps I'm using are *awesome* on my face from my nose up. But from the nose down I am having a break out. I hate my face. I hate that it's the first thing people see. hAAAAte it. And it hurts. HURTS SO MUCH. Gr.
I got stuck in SO MUCH TRAFFIC. Route 3 was backed up onto the Parkway so I took a different exit. But I had to sit in FIVE MILES OF NO GO TRAFFIC before I could get past it. *fume* Got here a half hour late, but there wasn't much I could friggin do.
Anyrate. That is my morning ADD.

And NEXT year? ONLY ONE target for me. None of this multiples stuff.
