March 25th, 2006 @ 10:55 am | dc, family, miscellany | Post a CommentI could probably write a book full of all the fun and hilarious happenings since Wednesday night when my sister arrived. However, I have only a few stolen moments while she and my other friend are still asleep on the couch.
Anyway, the title would definitely be Bestest Weekend Ever In the History and the chapters would be:
1. Dental School Sister forces all housemates to Floss Daily and even Monitors Technique
(Also, she shares horror stories of fitting an old pervert man for dentures and then him telling her the first thing he is looking forward to “eating” with his new teeth is not actually a food, but a certain female body part.)
2. Baby Panda: Cutest Ever, but the hippo and the gorilla were pretty cool too
3. Discover Paper Source, and can now die because know what Heaven is like
(p.s. Thanks for all the tips leading me there!)
4. Try on a Zillion Wedding Dresses, think may have found The One, but maybe having second thoughts?
5. Get Violated by Yvonne at Dress Store #3, who is more like Soup Nazi than Gentle Bridal Salon Consultant
6. Drink Margaritas and serve as Asshole many, many times during game of Asshole
To be conquered today: The National Mall, Smithsonian, IMAX, etc. Hopefully it won’t rain on us! (And I promise to share more photos next time, too!)

I’m so glad you’re having fun with your sister and friend. We had sleet/rain/snow here. Nothing significant but enough to be really really annoying. Hope it skipped you all! Can’t wait to see pictures!

Ooh - I had a friend in town over the weekend and we did the Tidal Basin thing. Unforunately SHE took all the good pics so I won’t be posting until she sends them to me! We totally thought about going to see the pandas — would’ve been too weird to see a fellow DC blogger in person!!!

Bridal store nazi women are the worst. As are the ones that over extend their opinion. Like, shut up, it’s not your wedding.
Glad you guys are having fun!

Yay! This sounds like so much fun. And (freak I am) I would be interested in having someone critique my flossing. Weird, I know.
