一个加州大妈的一天三项运动----how i was attacked by the kool-aid man

圣诞前两周的周末总是有点忙，爱美丽准备钢琴表演，医院和一些朋友的party。

昨天早上五点起来，和小伙伴们抱团练力量。

然后去downtown跑了每年传统的5k。我给爱美丽也报名了，但是她十点有钢琴表演，在家临时抱佛脚，lol。所以我带了爸妈去。

按理说这个比火鸡节那个在公园草地上的好跑，而且没有坡，但是没有火鸡节跑得快，上周的CIM马拉松还是有影响，今天起来觉得腿好酸，哈哈。成功卫冕年级组第一名，嘻嘻。

爸爸给我拍和grinch的合影，还有终点，很热闹，很多假雪，以前爱美丽很喜欢，现在娃大了，感慨一下。

然后赶去参加爱美丽的钢琴表演。她老师让她准备一首更难的，她在家里也练得好好的，但是临了还是怯场，弹了一首简单一点的。我看着其他孩子都弹得非常好。心里安慰自己，没有人能比爱美丽骑车快，哈哈哈。以己上驷对彼下驷的意思，lol。

下午回来收拾一下，晚上去参加了医院的party

今年爱美丽要求去参加我们医院的圣诞party。
这是爱美丽第一次作为我的guest参加。老迈经过多年终于卸任了。

下午爱美丽和我一起换衣服。她还替我化了妆。这是我第一次享受我闺女给我服务。

我这条裙子，是二手店买的，12块钱。 我现在觉得这些衣服穿过一次就不会再穿了，场合也少，不愿意花钱。

只要坚持减脂增肌身材好，披个麻袋都好看。还省钱。

所以最好的投资，永远是自己的健康。哈哈

爱美丽一走进party就说这么fancy你为啥早点不带我来。呵呵。

她穿了自己最喜欢的裙子，是day dress，还挎着维尼小熊的包包，和环境格格不入，但是我想who cares，我娃高兴就行。拍照时候我说把包包拿下来吧，她不肯，说这是她outfit的一部分。哈哈。她还遇到从小看她的儿科医生，把我笑死了。

不怕菜简单粗糙，怕的是美国人要学意大利人。一道道菜上。每一道都是很少一点点。我早上我做力量，跑了5k，看了爱美丽钢琴表演，早就饥肠辘辘。好不容易熬到第四道上了羊排好小一块，爱美丽还拿去吃了。
九点半才吃到第五道，早就过了我们睡觉的时间。爱美丽吵着要走了，我一定要等鱼。好难吃。干巴巴的。
没有等甜点就走了。

回来的路上，爱美丽说以后再也不来了，我跟爱美丽说，所以那些看上去很光鲜的事情，未必真的如你想象，呵呵。

下面是她昨天下午去party之前写的。

Hello everybody. 'Tis I, the great Emily.

Today my mother is treating me like a PEASANT and making me blog on something with PICTURES. And I also did a rehearsal for piano and it sucked because it was really hard and I almost died. My mom doesn't believe me.

Anyways, tonight I get to go to a super fancy fabulous extragavant wonderful no calorie grass fed keto dinner party! WOW! It's gonna be with a bunch of adults and doctors and stuff. If I make friends with them then maybe it'll be easier for me get into med school, and to become a neurologist. Recommendations and all that! It's very cool.

And below me you can see my mom lifting a pink ball of some sort. Don't know what she's doing there but she's obviously proud of it. Then there's a dog, and a grinch. The grinch's dog. The dog's grinch. I don't know I wasn't there I was practicing for my RECITAL THINGY!!!

Then you can see how my mom got FIRST IN HER AGE GROUP! WOW! Then at the bottom, there's me absolutely selling in my recital. Sigh. The problem with the recitals and stuff is that the piano is different than the one I have at home! The one on the stage had way less pushback on the keys and was way easier to press, which meant I had to push so much lighter for pianissimo! It was kind of annoying and my left hand was playing too loud.

I also spilled red ink all over my hand. It wouldn't wash out, and I looked like I was personally and violently attacked by the Kool-Aid man. I did what I had to do. 

Anyways that's everything I did today. Quick summary:

Mom went to run with the grinch and won

My left hand is too loud

I was attacked by the Kool-Aid man
