As Told by a Ginger: Spring Sing Edition.

Well my life has finally returned to me, our last Spring Sing show was Saturday night. I can't say I know what a hangover feels like, but on Sunday morning I believe I had a Spring Sing hangover. I felt like I had thrown up all the lyrics I could, smiled as much as my mouth would allow, and danced WAY beyond my limit. I literally just laid on my bed for hours looking at the ceiling. But honestly, I wouldn't trade my experience in Spring Sing for anything. Performing on stage is something I believe God gave me the ability to do, and I will utilize any chance I get. And this....this was just too fun to pass up.

Here's one of my many SS faces. Now I know what you're thinking...I mean it's pretty hard to get any more cute and cuddly than that face right there. But believe me when I say it can be done. But let's be real here... I certainly won't be allowed with in a 200 foot radius of any school with this picture. 

For those of you that don't know my brother, he is the cop in the gray and black uniform with the gargantuous eyes. I don't even think gargantuous is a word, but no real words could describe this kid's SS face. I will admit it for all of you to read, I am defeated. Defeated by Robbie's SS face. I thought I had a chance, but I don't think I even came close. I knew for a fact that I couldn't compete when he came up to me on Friday and told me he had 12 more SS faces that he came up with. At that point, I knew I was automatically screwed. So there you go Robbie, you win. Just like you won at everything throughout our entire childhood... just kidding. But really.

After the performance on Friday, I went to OnCue with Jew, and naturally we were in full costume. So the guy at the register decides to sit there and talk to us about his connections with the now alcoholic Steve (I can't blame Steve though, I mean I'd be an alcoholic too if I was the only human that lived in a world consisting only of inanimate cartoon objects that helped you solve clues to find even MORE inanimate cartoon objects). Apparently the OnCue guy was engaged to Steve's niece. Which was actually pretty cool, until the OnCue guy started talking about how Steve was the lead singer of the band called Flaming Lips (....really?) which leads to his present day heavy drinking. I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD. Maybe my parents told me he was dead so I wouldn't know about his alcohol problems. I mean they lied to me about Santa, it's completely logical. I'm not bitter or anything though...................

Oh, and you will probably be shocked to find out how much makeup I have put on in the past week for  SS. I would venture to say I put on a good pound of makeup for every show. And my hair now hates me for the amount of heat I applied to it... so I'm going on a no makeup streak. You all will be seeing a little to no maintenance Sarah for the rest of the week. And then I will continue my no maintenance Sarah in MEXICO (woop woop) while building houses, so that when I come back...I might actually want to look decent. Who knows. At this point, I am repulsed by the idea of spending more than 15 minutes getting ready.

Anyways. I have a midterm paper that I am putting off...and it won't write itself. Although, I really wish it would. I'm still recovering from my SS hangover.

Peace and Bless-ings, Peace and Bless-ings.
