Random Fun

{me at the restaurant}
Today was randomly a lot of fun.  Although I planned to just stay in my room and pack to head back to school, once I had all of my clothes on the bed ready to be packed, I was over it.  Instead, I joined my big sister for a pedicure.  I know I just had a manicure yesterday, but she told me my feet looked like they belonged on a homeless person and I couldn't argue it.  Plus she worked all week in NY and I barely got to see her, so the quality sister time was something I couldn't pass up.

After the pedicure, I met my dad and other sister for a meal at one of our favorite local restaurants.  It's Greek, and I just so happen to work there as a waitress over the summer.  I ordered a Greek salad and some french fries =) yum.  I can't resist Greek fries as they're amazing.  For those of you who don't know what Greek fries are, they've got lemon and oregano sprinkled on top.  Seriously, if you haven't had french fries with that combination then you MUST try it.

After dinner, one of my best friends, Kara came by my house.  We were thinking we'd have a low key night at my house, but it turned out quite differently.  Neither of my sisters were home when we first got here, but they both ended up coming home with company in tow.  We played rounds and rounds of elephant man, more commonly known as thumper.  Seriously, that game is absolutely underrated.  A simple animal symbol goes a long way when it comes to laughter, and the fact that my older sister is incapable of carrying a beat just made everything that much better. Others may argue otherwise, but I know I dominated as the shark.  My sister gave me a good run for my money as the uncoordinated unicorn nonetheless.

Believe it or not, the game playing didn't stop at elephant man.  We continued with a game of Left, Right, Center.  This is an amateur gambler's game and it's actually hilarious.  You have the potential to win through the very last second of the game, which is what makes it so exciting.  Although I was the second to last person in the game, ultimately my twin sister beat me to win the pot of (a whopping) 30 dollars.  It was a tough loss.

A spontaneous day made for a successful one, agreed?
