liz is totally going to make fun of me tonight at the Uruguay Reunion (read: Northwestern basketball game with her and Keith, someone we met while on the boat that goes from Baires to Colonia) and this is why: i think in all the social terms for people in chicago, i may best fit into the "trixie" category. now i have been told that the trixies are girls who live in the lincoln park neighborhood who drive VW Jettas and are looking for the sorority life out of college.
ok, so i do NOT live in LP, nor was i EVER in a sorority, but i DO drive a jetta and i did something that may be kind of trixie-ish; i went and got a french manicure (!) it's just because i owe my mom some money for the white-hotness of my teeth, so i told her i would pay her in the form of a pedicure. she suggested two manicures instead, and asked me if i wanted to come today. sure, why not. and i can't stand wearing nail polish or the look of it, so i decided i would see how the french manicure looked. and it's not bad at all, just makes me feel a little sorority-girl-ish. oh well, it's not like i do it every two weeks... maybe from the outside i am a little trixie-ish, but i know i'm really not despite the car i drive. ha ha and i won't even be driving the jetta this evening; my dad begged me to lend him my car b/c my brother and sister took his car to minnesota and he was sick of driving the little truck. now i'm stuck with it. but for a gas fill-up and a car wash, it is worth it.

getting all trixie-ish

no. you would have been trixie-ish had you name-dropped your salon, the stylist, the fact that you upgraded to an audi, flaunted your cool trainers, and flipped your hair a lot. oh, and if you had sucked up to the db's behind us :)
