Weddings, photobooths, poison, and Mom

On Saturday, the Man and I went to the wedding of an old co-worker. It was in New Hampshire. The reception was in Searles Castle, a very pretty... well, castle. I took a few pictures of it. But I won't post those because the funnest pictures were the ones taken by the photobooth that the bridal party had set up. AWESOME IDEA, people! Here's what I got:
In that bottom right picture the Man is trying to give me a lap-dance or something but we ran out of time before the camera snapped a picture. We'd been drinking - don't judge. You WISH your man would give you lap-dances in photobooths!

We danced a lot. And I had on really uncomfortable, pointy shoes. When the groom exclaimed that we were good dancers, we both pointed at the other as if neither of us had anything to do with it. But lemme tell you, we've got a little bit of rhythm...

I would say that my least favorite part about the wedding occurred on Sunday when I discovered upon arriving home that I had somehow contracted poison ivy or poison oak or some other kind of poison. At a castle. Not a ho-down. How did that happen!? I, like The Bloggess, will blame ghosts. Ghosts gave me poisoned legs that itch. I took a picture of my poisony legs, but you could be eating, so I'll just say it looks just like you think it looks: GROSS*.

Sunday was a pretty low key day - I ran some errands, including going to the healthfood store where my friend A works, to buy a water bottle and some spirulina (lots of protein! balances your pH!). I also called my Mom to wish her a Happy Mother's Day. She's good people, and she seemed to be having a good day, so, you're welcome Mom. I wished for you to have a good day and you did.

This morning I made a smoothie for breakfast with a banana, some OJ, and a teaspoon of spirulina. It was dark green and I'm pretty sure it gave me vertigo. Or got me drunk. Can that be? Was it really a fermented algae smoothie that I had for breakfast? We may never know...

*Just to clarify, though they are shockingly white, my legs are not gross all the time, just with the little red bumps and the itching. OH THE ITCHING!!!

The whiteness of your legs is nothing compared to mine. I could replace the bulb in a lighthouse with my gleaming paleness.

I love the pictures. What a great idea!
