trier

"women be shoppin' "

yesterday, two of my very good friends (shelly and emily) and i hit up trier to get away from our kids and do some shopping. i was looking forward to the new indoor mall that i heard about but was disappointed to see that there was no H&M kids there!!! i had heard that there would be one there. ugh...yeah, i was sad about that but found another childrens store that was ok. i found brynn some awesome tights for the winter and cute shirts that were pretty cheap...well for the euro that is.

when we walked into the mall, we heard all this music and people crowded around the middle looking down at something. of corse we had to find out what was going on too and discovered that there was a little fashion show going on. it was pretty funny as these people incorporated dancing in it too which was hilarious! i took a video, but because there were a lot of people smashed up againist us, its not a very good one. but i have to post it to show you the dance moves! hahahaha! it was funny...we were the only ones laughing while all the other people around us were serious. yeah, way to be obnoxious americans! the models were older and the guys were balding!!! we had to get closer to discover that...and dude, why do german guys wear such tight jeans?! its NOT cool. i know the skinny jeans are in style right now, which i think are nasty, but guys shouldnt be sporting them too. no one wants to see that...no one!

when you go to trier, you HAVE to eat ice cream at one of the many eis cafe's. it was freezing cold outside but that didnt stop us from getting ice cream! and of corse i was poorly dressed and frooze my butt off walking around, but it was worth it. i took a picture of the pretty banana split that i ordered, but i didnt bring our nice camera so the picture turned out awful. this one turned out pretty good of us though...(although i look exhausted! shopping makes me really tired for some reason)

when i got home, i walked emily out to her car and our stupid cat escaped from the house. it was dark by this time, so steve and i had to find a flashlight and get her before she killed herself. shes spoiled rotten and has no idea how cats live outside of comfy warm homes and since we have two big mean dogs next door, i was afraid that she wandered into their area. luckily we found her in the huge fields next to our place frolicking in the tall grass matted with nasty muddy paws. she was proud of herself for sneaking out...when we got her back inside, i discovered that she had thrown up all over the bathroom so i was up for a while washing everything. nice huh? ugh...hair balls are not cool. its a good thing i like her or i would have thrown her back outside.

tomorrow i have an mri on my knee so i hope that goes well. i dont like confined small spaces so i hope i dont freak out. i injured my knee back in july at a tae bo class that billy blanks taught here on base, and since then its moved up to my hip. my knee feels ok now, but my doctor wants to rule it out before looking into the hip. it sucks for me because im still in pain and cant sleep on my right side because any pressure on it kills! so yeah, ive been taking ib profen constantly to help with the pain. im hoping its nothing too serious...

*ok...its taking far too long to load the video at this time and im sick of waiting! i will try again later.
