Vacation Baby!

Freakin' ROCKED! San Diego, Tijuana, and a cruise to Cabo San Lucas. 10 days of pure fun. Went with some of my best friends and definitely couldn't have had a better time. Not to mention the drinking was in plenty of quantity. I have 346 international roaming minutes on my cell phone bill to prove it. Don't drink and dial people! lol Have a great weekend!

6 Months Post-Op

...and 130 lbs gone forever. What an amazing year this has been. Awesome family, great friends, excellent travels! I've done more traveling this past year than I have in my life. Next trip is in April 2008. Flying in to San Diego, and going on a cruise to Mexico with my best friends! Christmas fever has started too. Went out on black Friday and spent a LOT of money, but got some excellent gifts at even better prices! Life is good :)

Cabo San Lucas is in for it

Woohoo! We're going on a cruise to Mexico! Our first ever! Me, Becky, Jolene, Rita and Carol have scheduled it and we are gonna rock it! It's not until April, but by then, Becky, Jolene and I will be almost a year out, and we are gonna be smokin'! There's nothing better than being able to go to Mexico with your best friends!

Back Home

Had a fabulous time in Hollywood/Los Angeles and San Diego.
Walked about a gazillion miles on Hollywood Blvd, seeing all of the great places. Definitely a freak show there. I think seeing Grauman's was the best part of that. Definitely a place to see!

Got some excellent exercising in there, which was needed after the long flight. Oh, and LAX, well, I think I'm scarred from having to get through that airport! lol
So after a couple days in Hollywood, I took the train to San Diego to see Becky and Jolene. We had lunch with Holly Berry. That girl cracks me up. Then to the hotel. NOT what was expected. Had to call maintenance twice, once to get a shower head, and another to get the refrigerator working! lol
We went to Seaport Village the first night and that was fun. Then off to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. I can't believe all the food that was wasted! Pre-op I would have cleaned my plate and maybe someone else's! I had most of a taco, and a couple bites of beans and rice. I was sooo tired from having been up so long that I fell asleep while we were waiting to get a table!
The next day I had lunch with Bec, Jolene, Carol and Cindy Z. I love seeing friends!
Did a lot of sightseeing the next 2 days, and if you've never seen the sun set over the ocean, you need to. Amazing.

A lot of people were there, and the weather was nice. There was even an older couple there that had brought a little table and chairs, and were drinking wine and having cheese! They actually brought a block of cheese and cut off of it. Was soo cute!

Tickets X 2

I confirmed some tickets to the Jimmy Kimmel and Ellen Degeneres show in early September in LA. Yay! The guests are yet to be announced, but, ya gotta go when you can.

Fashionable?

I wanna go to rehab! It seems like the "in" thing to do recently. Of course, it probably costs more in one week than I make in a year. Guess I'll need to find a sponsor. Wonder if Perez Hilton is interested?!? Or, I could just go sit outside the doors while I'm in California! Celebrity central! Damn... too bad I'm not a crackhead.

Things to do in LA / Hollywood!

Walk of Fame Wax Museum Pink Taco LA Zoo LA County Fair Pinks Hotdogs

Mr. Chow Grauman's Chinese Theatre Teddy’s Santa Monica Pier Aquarium Hollywood Trolley tour

Of course all of these are just idea's. and not definite. I will be adding to the list as necessary. Well, a couple of them are definite - Mr Chow for sure! lol Any other ideas anyone?

California Baby - Part 2

Uh huh, that's right... I'm going to Cali again. In early September with 4 friends, and possibly another. Disneyland is callin' my name! Let's see, what will we do? Hollywood walk of fame? That would rock! But hey, just hangin' with my girls will be awesome! I think I'll be flying into Santa Ana again, because it will be closest to the hotel, and of course I'll need shuttle service. I'm gonna be chowing down on some "DIP sauce" with Becky, Michelle, Kim & Sarah. We'll definitely have to do some karaoke so Kim can sing "Heartbreaker." Damn that girl can sing! Unfortunately Kathy won't be able to go, but we might be able to get Mary Ann to! I'll be going to Phoenix in October, so I'll see Mary Ann and Kathy there, so that's awesome. At least this trip I'll save a lot on food costs! lol Seeing that I only eat 2-3 ounces, I'm sure some of us will be sharing some dishes! Woohoo for California! Yeah, I'm excited, can't ya tell? Have a lovely day!

Wowsa

I had a complete blast in California with all my friends. The first night we went to a karaoke bar called "Durty Nellys" and it was absolutely hilarious! I never knew Kim could sing like that! She rocked the house. Woohoo! The Crowne Plaza hotel was immaculate, and I certainly didn't want to come home. Even the room service was superb! Of course, it cost me $12 to watch a movie. Go figure lol

California Baby!

The Annoying Lizard is going to Orange County! That's right... I'll be flying into Santa Ana on April 13 and staying in Irvine for a few days. You know you want to hang out with me! I'm going to an OH convention where I'll be with a bunch of friends! It's gonna be the time of our lives! Woohoo!
