slumber party!!!


Sweet & adorable Amber Rose from Laughing with Broken Eyes asked me to do a guest post for her blog, and it's up now! I used my post to host a little virtual sleepover, and you're invited! So please stop over and join in the fun! :)


Do you want to comment, but have no idea what to say? Trust me, I've been there! So to make things a little easier, here is a question you can answer if you can't think of anything else to say! :)

What is your favorite slumber party memory? (Or if that would require way too much mental excavation - what was your favorite slumber party activity?)

I want pink knee pads.

I got really pretty roller skates last summer, but never got around to purchasing the (absolutely necessary for me) knee pads and elbow pads so that I could actually use the skates. It's already warm enough here now for me to put my falling-on-my-arse-in-public skills to good use, so I went searching on amazon for knee and elbow pads. Unfortunately, THIS is the loveliest option for adults:


As a kid, I loved my hot pink helmet and sparkly streamers on my bicycle handles. As a grown up, I might not want my bike decked out like Barbie, but I'd at least like something a little less macho than black and orange he-man knee pads. I'm resourceful; I'll probably just buy some of that Krylon plastic spray paint and make these more suited for a person with hips and long hair. But, still.. why can't girls have pretty sportswear? I'm sure I can't be the only one who'd prefer a more feminine alternative to these Rollerball pads.

UPDATE: I ended up finding a light blue knee pad/elbow pad/helmet combo on amazon! whee! :)
