i'll add pictures into this later...once i get back to my laptop.
so i'm pretty sure that eddie has become the most amazing boyfriend i could have ever hoped for. i only hope that i am half as good to him as he is to me. it's amazing that we have held out for three years. it's amazing that our love has been that strong. and it just feels so so right to be back with him.
so yesterday was the state fair. eddie tracked guitars until 2ish and then he and i drove to dallas. my step-dad had given me $70 worth of those coupon things needed to buy food/ride rides so we were good and eddie's mom had given us free student tickets courtesy of the Arlington Independent School District. So in other words, our state fair adventure cost about $5 for parking. very cool. let's see if i can list everything we ate:

i'm sure that i left something out. but yea. alot of food. alot of cigarettes. alot of everything. we saw dresses from famous movies such as gone with the wind, marie antoinette and others. we rode the ferris wheel a little before 9 at night. we rode some spinny thing that makes you stick to the walls. and of course had a go at the bumper cars. we visited the car show where i pretty much passed out at the sight of the mitsubishi eclipse concept car. ohhhhh lordy. we went to some exhibit about other cultures or some something. and yea. i think that's about it. fought the crowds. won a prize. decided that big tex is most def hispanic. got coupons for free cigarettes. laughed at some drunk dudes. marveled at the street fashion of inner city dallas. watched a light parade. laughed at white people. saw two fights. watched out for pedophiles. so yea, it really was a great day.
the other afternoon i went back to dallas and bought this lovely vintage yellow dress that i had been eyeing. pretty much as soon as i got out of the store, with it on, some photographer and his assistant or whatnot pretty much begged to take photos of me in my yellow dress with my el camino. of course i agreed. who could turn that offer down? so anyways, this dude would "love" to work with me again and will hopefully send me some photos soon. i have pretty much become convinced that magical things happen in the city of dallas and that it would be in my best interests to spend as much time there as possible. today is family day at school and so the fashion department is having a fashion show including all of our previous work. i went to go see if i could help out by maybe being a model. but yea. no dice. apparently i'm much too thin or some crap. i really have no idea what they're talking about. i was sure that i was a size 2, but that's obviously not the case. so anyways, good news either way. couldn't be in the shows but i could be a dresser (it's too bad that my vicious cramps this morning made that totally impossible) and in the future the design students are going to use me as a model for fittings and whatnot. i'm really not that small, or at least i didn't think so, but i guess this shows otherwise. either that or TWU just likes to make clothing for the average size American woman. who knows.
damn you fat americans.

Dallas IS magical, it's true. One of these days that you're over here, give me a call. I can show you some amazing vintage stores and designer recall shops.
And yes. You are very, very skinny. However, after reading that list of things you ate at the fair, you may be able to not only be a fitter, but also a TWU model ;)
