Life
in Plastic
Hi all! I think it's about time to move on.
I can't say what terrible things may lay in the future, but
hopefully someone will be looking out for us all and run some
interference. That is the best that I can hope for. So I'll
just move on and fill you all in on the less than incredible
happenings in my life. First off, surprise surprise! I'm single
again. Go figure, I finally decide to date someone (granted
it was "expiration dating" as my best friend termed
it) and it doesn't last more than a month. I'd say that I
have learned that the way my schedule is nowadays, I don't
have time to sincerely date anyone. And my hippie sister gave
me some good advice: "Don't judge a man on his potential."
So now that that delusion is over, it's back to the life of
a bachelorette.
Lately I've been going home on the weekends. I was embarrassed
at first, but I had such a fantastic time that I must say
that I'm now willing to share with you all my most recent
job. Leighton booked me to do a promotion for Mattel. Yes,
Mattel, one of the biggest toy companies based in New York...makers
of "Barbie." And guess whom they chose just from
my pictures online to play the infamous plastic princess?
Yuppers, that's right, me! The last two weekends I've headed
to Phx, hung out with friends and then woken up early Saturday,
put on some fancy make up and curl my hair. I drove to Fry's
(don't make fun) and donned a pink fluffy dress, slipped into
my hot pink pumps and placed my plastic tiara carefully on
my golden head. So that is enough of the most ridiculous part
of the whole thing. I admit it, ridiculously funny, I know.
But seriously, the little girls that came to see Barbie were
soooooo freaking cute! Their little 2-9 year old faces lit
up like a Christmas tree when they spotted me. Some of them
were so shy they just hid behind their moms or even behind
a hanging rug. But as soon as I went to them and offered them
a hug, they would give me the sweetest tightest embrace that
would break anyone's heart. Some little girls were so darn
cute and came to me at a dead run. A few even brought me drawings
or little notes. One little girl even gave me a drawing that
is now posted on my wall that says "To Barbie, From Chrissy,
#1 fan, I love you." I absolutely loved every pretty
in pink moment of it. I've even decided to post a picture
of it for you all. Enjoy my day in plastic!
So coming up: Kris is back in town and staying till Sunday.
I'm heading back to Phx on Wednesday with Dave, Lauren, and
my friend Will. I'll be dropping off Will with his mom and
then spending Wed night rockin' out at the Yellowcard concert
with Tim 2. The next day, Thanksgiving Day, will be filled
with friends and family and sooooo much food. I definitely
wouldn't be able fit in my Barbie dress this weekend. I always
loooove holidays that are all about eating fantastic food
with great family. Anyhow, life calls...I'm off and next update
might be more eventful. Love you all!
