Wooooooo.
Welp. It's Thursday. I've officially gotten about 5 hours of sleep per night since Last Friday. I'm desperately wanting Friday night to commence so that I can sink into my bed and pass out until whenever I feel like on Saturday. I'm really good at sleeping. Like REALLY good.
Last Saturday was our annual Halloween party out in Naperville, Il. We partied like rock stars until about 3 am, and then promptly crashed. It's always so awesome to be surrounded by all the people I care about most, and dance it up until we drop. We ended the night with our obligatory trip to IHOP (complete with pigs in a blanket and chicken strips) and then drove the hour home.
IHOP. So gross and yet sooooooo good. I really go there only on one occasion: when I am coming home from stake dances. Not sure why IHOP seems like such an after party place, but it's seriously perfect. I have never laughed so hard, or had so many awkward thing happens in a small amount of time as I have in IHOP. Seriously, I am not sure if we just feel reckless (IHOP's always seem to be located in the HOOD in Chicago) or if we are all just so tired by the time we get there that we're delirious.... but I am thankful for good friends that do it with me every year anyway.
These people are like family. And I'm not just saying that because Emily is dressed like a mobster.

My gosh! Reading this comment reminds me of when Aunt Lee and I and Laura were your age!
Red Lion on Watt Ave. in Sacramento was our breakfast of choice after a really good dance/party night!
Ah......Crazy times. I actually had a date that ate the check and Lee and I had to explain to the waitress that we needed another one....
"What exactly do you mean he ATE the check?!"
"Well. You know. He put it in his mouth and chewed it up...and swallowed it."
