What a Weekend!!!

Man this weekend will go down in the record books as one of the randomest/most fun weekends ever!! Darla and I headed (separately) to Green Bay to visit with Ang for a Girl's Weekend. Loads of fun - yet somehow disaster managed to strike! (big surprise with the three of us together :b)

Friday night we did a little shopping the had a Patio Party with a few of Ang's lawyer buds - good times :) There are some great pics (however, my computer is not hooked up due to the move to the new apartment, so they will be posted later) and there was plenty of alcohol consumed.

Saturday was the day of the crazy randomness (and disaster!) (unfortunately Ang has not emailed me the pics of that event yet so you will have to wait) Us girls and Mike decided to go tubing down a river outside of Green Bay (not sure which one it is) and when we got there there was a HUGE line to wait for the bus to trek us down to the start point. It was so hot and gross outside, and we were just standing there under the beating sun. Anyways, good ol' Tina can't handle the heat (and am probably dehydrated from the drinking the night before) and I faint, right there, as we're walking to get on the freaking bus. We were so close to just boarding the bus and taking the two minute drive to the start point. Well, I hear my fall wasn't too graceful and looked more like a I tripped over a tube as I was walking forward.... luckily the tube was there or I think my injuries would've been more severe. As I hear, when I went down, Ang and Darla froze up, and the annoying stupid girl behind us kept screaming "Get her off the tube, it's hot!" like that was what they were most concerned about at the time :b So I finally come to (no one really knows how long I was out, but it was probably a matter of seconds) and I have this lovely gash on my chin and blood dripping down my front. As we were discussing the event, Darla kept looking at the gash and shuddering, while Mike ran off and found me ice bags to stick under my armpits to cool me off. We decided not to go tubing after the incident and got our money back, and then drove home. The whole way home I was reassured that it probably wasn't as bad as it looked and we just needed to clean it up at the house, even though I come to find out that everyone was thinking "Man, this girl really needs to go to the hospital." At the house Ang took a pic so I could see the grossness of the cut, and Darla called her mom to see if I should be taken in. It was concluded that I needed to go to the doctor to have it checked out, and I ended up with EIGHT stitches in my chin. Now mind you, this was the first time I've EVER had to go to the doctor for anything other than a physical or a cold/flu thing. That's it. I've never broken a bone or had any other injuries that required a doctor (unlike the very uncoordinated Angie - you should ask her about her broken ankle sometime :) ) I just can't wait to see what my emergency room bill is going to look like - they hooked me up to a freaking heart monitor to make sure I wasn't going to die or something!!! At least the nurse that checked me in was a cutie - no Derek Shepard, but close :)

So anyways, now I'm walking around with eight stitches in my chin, a skinned up knee, and a bruise on my forehead. And don't worry, I'm totally fine and this is freaking hilarious now that we all know I will be perfectly OK.

We finished off the night with pizza and The Devil Wears Prada, and by the time the movie was done we all couldn't believe the events of the day. It seemed ages ago that I had been at the doctor and everything.

Today we found outfits for the Headbanger's Ball, and I would like to say we are going to look fabulous!!!

Ok - so when I get the pics, I will totally post them of me and my gash, and the stitches. (I will also warn you about them in the heading, so if you get grossed out you'll know not to scroll down)

Now I'm gonna go play with Vienna - she hasn't seen me all weekend and misses me.

TOMORROW I COMPLETELY MOVE INTO MY NEW APARTMENT AND GET MY RED FURNITURE!!! I'll definitely post pics once the place is all settled into.

Hope everyone had a great weekend - and sorry if my story sounds lame - it's so much more hilarious when you have all three of us girls telling it (specially since I don't remember the drama part since I was passed out lying on the ground)
