on the mall.

on a perfect, hot fall day you can do lots of things.  or you can do just a few really fabulous things. like go to mcdonalds and get ice cream, say yes when your boss asks you if you want the day off, and go paint in the mall.

the mall is not a place to shop. it is a traditional, university mall with gorgeous portico graced buildings.

and you do this all with a friend who makes you laugh, and doesn't think it's weird when you roll on the grass for no reason.

and then kate joins ya, and it gets even more fun. and there are cute boys doing athletic things so you get to have eye candy. then a nice Sig drops by to chit chat and you do not disclose the name of the bad Sig- the bad seed- even at his request. 

yes. I was painting a bear with a giant lollypop next to it. 

now you all know. it could not be a nice day out with my sorority sisters without a creeper.

while painting, a guy (not a student, but older, looked weird) started walking really close to us and staring.  rude.  then he asked, "do you have the time?"  so we told him.

two hours later. kate had joined us and we all laid down in a sunny spot, our head together to talk while some SAEs played frisbee nearby...

the same werid guy walks RIGHT and I mean RIGHT by us, milimeters away readers, milimeters (i.e. TOO close).  So I sit up, sun drunk, and weirded out.  He walks around and back towards us and says to me, "do you have the time?"

So I roll my eyes and say, "no, and we already gave you the time a while ago." 

Goodness!

Awwww! I love days off, sorry the weirdo had to make it less than perfect! I miss you so! Cute pic! Do you seriously take even those? You're soooo talented!

Ok so remember how I told you I have a friend here who totally reminds me of you? Pretty much still the case. It's funny too cause Brian said the same thing!!

Anyway, I really wish you were here to take a cute family pic of us! Walgreens is doing a "pet photoshoot" today and we can get group pics but Brian doesn't want to :(

Cute drawing, and I see that you are left handed, bet you have great hand writing too- My left hand is pretty much useless- it's just there for balance.

You are so adorable!

For the record, I roll around on the grass just because too ;)

An afternoon chatting on the grass sounds oh so nice. :)
