I love a good classic red lip.
Like Taylor Swift.
And I hadn't pulled out my red lipstick for a while so this was the perfect occasion.
God it felt so good to slather on the burts bees and then carefully draw on my red lips.
There is something about a red lip.
Like I could have walked up to that one guy that asked me a few weeks ago why a 9 was going out with a 3 for so long and tell him off for being a jerk.
Oh daring red lips.
Well good old red, white and blue for this girl.
White shorts.
Cute blue tank.
And a red lip and I was golden.
Headed out for the evening.
Not planning to drink at all.
All my friends were in Silverton and I was planning to work but then it was slow and I didn't have to come in.
Instead I met up with my good friend Allie.
Also sporting a red lip.
We watched the parade together.
Oogled some men.
Went to the street dance for a bit but then it got rained out so we headed to her dads house with our own bags of McDonalds in hand.
Because inside we are both fat kids in gym class even though both of us are healthy women.
Neither of us are fat, we are healthy.
So after hemming and hawing about what to do we decide on battleship. Which I haven't played in literally 10 years.
Best game ever.
And Allie is oddly good at it.
We listened to country music, and I slyly let her win the second game because the fireworks were starting and she had already sunk 4 of my ships.
We head out and watch the Durango version of a fireworks show.
Short and sweet.
Had some splendor.
But being a Denver girl i'm used to longer shows and multiple ones.
Going to the City and County building on the 3rd and listening to the CSO play.
Then watching the Arvada fireworks from the hill of the garden plot on the 4th.
But this was good.
A relaxed evening with a great friend.
No crazy morning after stories to tell.
I was in bed at 10:30.
And that was perfect for me.
So my first legal 4th was not a crazy drunken night.
Instead I gossiped and played battle ship.
That works for me :)
