Good news. We actually did get rain today. For about fifteen minutes. Bad news. It was a thunderstorm. It had lightning. And it lit Boulder Canyon on fire. I work in Boulder.
This is how it looked when I left work from our parking lot . . .
And at the end of our street . . .
Last I heard from my mom (who works down the street from me), she was told they were evacuating the area where I work and/or are going to take power down in the area we work. Seriously. Sorry to keep talking about the fire but it is
all we hear about over here.
So, while I find out if I have work tomorrow or not, why don't you take a gander at my inspiration for today. I'm fairly certain it came from InStyle (I'm an avid reader) wherein Eva Longoria gets a "steal" on her dress from Express. While it is super cute and probably high quality, you
know my ass was like "$88 a steal?!?!? I could get like 20 dresses for that!" Don't judge.
Like my wanna be impression of the Eva Longoria? LOL I might have been off a smidge . . .
Good news. I loved the way this outfit turned out. It was super cool and comfortable all day. I luuuuuuurve this dress I thrifted last fall. Bad news. I almost couldn't find the perfect scarf to pull it off.
Good news. I got to hang out with my best friend tonight, Chris (in case you're an old school reader, I hope you're not confused. I have two besties--Matt and Chris). We went to our favorite place to eat: Raisin Canes in Fort Collins.
Bad news. It was in Fort Collins. No offense to Fort Collins (or Fort Compton or the Fort or Fo Co, if you will), but we are from that area. Therefore, not huge fans of the town.
Good news. We had fried chicken for days, laughed a lot and had a blasty. It was a lot of fun and I will totally miss him and our IM convos while he is on a little staycation for two months.
Bad news. So. Much. Chicken. So. Full.
Good news. I noticed today that this park that I was taking my pictures in today was called "Frannie Memorial Garden." Yay!
Bad news. It means this Frannie died. Really sad :-( I wonder what she was like . . . Obviously loved enough to get a garden named after her. ;-)
Good news. I have managed to write nearly an entire post on random ramblings whilest I try to get my mind off of the fact that our state is literally like the gates of Hell at the moment.

With that, I reckon it might be bedtime for me. I'll keep ya posted. Bad news. I just used the word "reckon." Peace out.
