NEW CAR!



So as of Monday - this is going to be my new car!! I am excited yet disappointed that I will be giving up my car. My car and I have an extensive love-hate relationship. It isn't that old and my CD player is jammed and my brakes suck. I guess it was just time to upgrade. Fully loaded - I am not sure exactly how often I will use a navigation system, but I will let you know. It is funny when you start looking to buy big things like a car, you find out what is important to you. When we bought my condo in Colorado, at the end, all I wanted was a washer dryer. I didn't mind doing my own dishes as long as I didn't have to go somewhere to do laundry. Gosh it worked out nice! With my new car, heated seats were number 1. I drive to work @ 6:45 am and the seats heat up faster than the heater, so of course what becomes important. I just think it is funny how that works.. well off to bed. How do you like my new car?

Hump Day Joke

Put a smile on your face it is Wednesday!!

Lawyers should never ask a witness a question if they aren't prepared
for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small town prosecuting attorney called his
first witness, a grandmother, elderly woman to the stand. He
approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you
since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big
disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, you manipulate
people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big
shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never will amount to
anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed
across the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense
attorney?"

She again replied, "Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he
was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking
problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law
practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he
cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your
wife. Yes, I know him."

The defense attorney almost died. The judge asked both counselors to
approach the bench, and in a very quiet voice, said, "If either of
you bastards asks her if she knows me, I'll throw your sorry asses in
jail for contempt."

Going out...with mom..?

In college it was guarenteed that I would be out 3 nights every weekend. Heck according to my friends and I, our weekend was 3 nights! Thursday was probably the most popular day to party. Fridays I think we tended to take it the lightest, but even when we were taking it easy, you probably wouldn't have been able to tell.

Last night, as I lay in bed, almost ready to fall asleep at 20 before 10 pm, mom called. She had gone out to dinner for a girls night out. She told me to get out of bed and come down to the club/bar they were at and go dancing. Sure enough, at Mom's request, I got up, tossed something decent on and went dancing. It was so funny. Mom and her friends are lookin at Crystal and I and asking if we would give them lessons on dancing. LOL

Some dude, who seemed to be some sort of manager there, came up and asked where I had learned to dance. Then he told me that my friends (referring to mom and hers) and I should come out to some club in the ciity and he would give us free passes. I am not sure if he seriously thought we were all friends or if he was trying to be nice. Needless to say it was entertaining.

So now it is 7:30 am and I am at work. I am known to be able to stay up as late as I want and still be able to function during the day. Although I may be functioning, it is quite slow and a little off. I feel old and I am only 22!

Mom joked that her and her friends are going to start coming out with my friends and I. Then she said we would rent a limo so that my girls and I could get drunk. I think I may just have to take her up on that offer. Aren't moms the best, at least mine is.

I know this is random, but it is early, I am tired, it is Friday, and I don't seem to have any focus.


TGIF!! HAPPY FRIDAY!

Welcome Home...

Good Morning and welcome back to the real world. There is something about getting up at 5:30 am that isn’t just wrong, but it reminds you that the weekend is over, and Monday has come all over again. Although I spent most of yesterday sleeping and recovering from another crazy weekend, my eyes feel heavy and a day of rest is all I could ask for, however I guess that will have to wait until next Sunday.

I think the best thing about going on vacation is coming home. After two long weekends, one in Colorado and the other in Las Vegas, it is good to be back in California and know that I will be staying home this weekend.

Labor Day weekend I took off to Colorado for the CU v. CSU game as well as my friend Christine’s B-day, and visiting as many people as possible in 3 days. On a Friday when you get up at 5:30 am and work 8 hours, going out that night as much fun as it is, wears you down. Then of course you have to get moving Saturday morning to get from Denver to Boulder, hitting football traffic 5 hours before the game, only to shower and start drinking at 3 pm. We were late to the game because we were still in the bar taking shots. Ran to my girl’s house at halftime to chug a beer and return to the stadium after the 3rd quarter had already started. Surprisingly enough, Colorado won the game, fuck em up fuck em up, GO CU! (They also won this past weekend v. WSU!!!) Of course what do you do after the home team has won a football game? You skip dinner, continue on your liquid diet and go out partying for the night… 11 hours after I started drinking we all made it back to my best friend’s house to wind down the night. (Sorry Hawk, Linds and I stole your bed)

Sunday was a little mellower, breakfast at noon and a nap for the afternoon. Dinner at the Walnut Brewery and out to the bars again. Although I didn’t drink too much after Saturday s binge and Friday night’s craziness, I should have said no to all alcohol.

We finished up the weekend with lounging on the couch all day Monday only to make an evening flight out of Colorado and return to California @ 10:30 pm.

A short 4 day week made the blurs of Colorado fade away and the adventures of another drinking packed weekend come to light... Crystal and I were off to VEGAS! City of Sin… Our flight seemed to be the longest short hour possible. Crystal was inquiring to why the young man next to us was going to Vegas. In the beginning he seemed nice, but as the trip went on, he seemed to get annoyed the she was asking too many questions, and not the “right ones”. Oh well! After finally arriving in Vegas we spent 30 min talking in the airport to some random people that were on our flight. We made it to the hotel, dinner, and ready to go out @ 10 pm. We danced at Studio 54 @ MGM for a good 5 hours… Left there @ 4 am with a group of boys ranging in ages from 23 -32. Still playing quarters @ 5 am. At which time the future wife to be calls her honey to make sure he is being good. Girls – NEVER call your fiancĂ© on his bachelor party. It is his last weekend of craziness with the boys. And if you don’t trust him, why the hell are you marrying him! After enough drnking, we decided to make our way back to the hotel. Crystal was quite confused as weather to say good morning or good night. We tried to make friends with the guys still playing craps, but they weren’t entertained at 7 am. It wasn’t because they were cute or anything, we just figured they didn’t look like they had been to bed either. This is what Vegas is all about!

After getting a good solid 6 hours of sleep in our COMFY beds, it was time to get moving again. We walked along the strip for a couple hours, had lunch, which ended up being dinner and finally returned to the hotel again for some football. (had to see if my Buffs won) Crystal napped for an hour while I watched football, then it was time to get up and get ready for the final night in Vegas. We had decided we were going to check out rain (of course I have been there now 4 times, but it was Crystal’s 1st). We got in line and started to drink, the only problem was by this point I was starving again. The club was packed and the music was GREAT! We turned in a little early seeing that our flight was at 9:50 am. I still think we were up until 4 or 5 am though. LOL

Sunday morning! I have never seen an airport quite like this on a random weekend. Everyone was leaving! Lines were long and it was HURRY UP and WAIT! We arrived at the airport and hour and a half prior to our flight, finally getting to the gate as the flight was boarding group A. That was close! Arriving home, mom picked us up and made us pancakes!! (Mom is the BEST!) I started to watch the 49ers and dozed off while I realized what a horribly ugly game it was going to be. Slept for most of the day, then most of the night. It is soo good to bed home and next weekend, I am not going ANYWHERE !!! Thank goodness, I don’t think I would be able to survive another weekend. Soccer starts this coming weekend and I can’t wait.

Back to work, hope everybody has a GREAT week!

Couple notes:
Jay – I hope you found Miss Joey and I hope Miss Joey had a wonderful BIRTHDAY!!
Crystal – Thanks for coming with me!!
Lindsey – Thank you for being such a great host, but you are a horrible drunk dial… lol

Wild n Crazy Weekends!!

Wild n Crazy Weekends!!

I think most of you know that I have been taking a couple weekends off to get out of town and go crazy! The real world starts for me this Tuesday, so I danced, I drank, and I hung out with some of my favorite people.

I had 11 of my cloest friends in VEGAS for my birthday. 9 girls getting ready and still beating the boys out...lol Love you guys! Sin city with that many females was a little out of hand. At least we had the boys there to keep us in line. I think we found the most ghetto club in LV, OPM. Of course I was so out of it that I don't think it really mattered. Rain was unbelievable as ALWAYS! That has to be my favorite club in LV. Sunday night, my b-day, I got everyone to head out to Light @ the Bellagio. That was awesome! Although the DJs in Vegas kind of suck, it makes for great entertainment. Going from Hip Hop to Sweet Home Alabama could only be done at this club where a table has a min. purchase of 2 bottles with the min price being about 300 dollars. Not including tip of course. Sure enough my 2 colorado girls are country line dancing to Sweet Home Alabama in the middle of Light. Then of course you have to have breakfast around 5 am so you feel better in the morning. But sadly enough, as you sober up, that cute guy, seems to be not so cute. At least that is what Amanda told me. I think she is being harsh! Needless to say, we had a blast! I got to see my best guy friend in a BIG baby blue bonnet! My dad essentially get a lap dance. And I messed up singing 12 Jurors hanging. Good times!

This past weekend one of my best girlfriends from College and I headed to NYC for a weekend of craziness. I danced on a bar, had some girl try to kiss me, had my boobs groped, and took a body shot off the bartender (which was female) that was bought by some random dude. And that was all in the first night! Every time I think that bars should be open later in the Bay, I wake up the next moring after being out late and realize why I would never survive in a city like this. I got to see my friend's concert! They opened for the Gin Blossoms and kicked some MAJOR ass! I think they might have even been better than the Gin Blossoms. (Just to let you know the band is called Dominick and here is the site if you want to check em out! http://www.dominickworld.com/) You know that it has been a LONG night when you hop on the train at 7 am to get back to the Hotel. I went clubbing at Avalon which is an old Church turned into a club. There has to be something wrong about partying in a Church! I don't know if it is older guys or just boys on the East coast, but I definitely didn't spend as much money as I was expecting. "This is my town" so I guess they feel they should treat. It was an absolutely wonderful gesture!

Other than that, my lil bro wants me to go to Vegas in Sept. Just what I need huh? Another trip to Vegas. I don't know if I could handle it. Party all weekend just in time to be back at work @ 7 am monday morning. I guess I will see what comes up.

I should be back at home for a little bit. Perhaps a little tired seeing I will be teaching myself how to get up @ 5:30 am instead of getting home then. Hope everyone has had a great couple of weeks and I will be around for a while when you all want to hang out!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

My birthday is July 18th, so needless to say as of Thursday, I will be in VEGAS with 11 of my great friends (plus the rents). According to Jay, as of Wednesday night,

Jay @ The X --> Jay @ Vegas

L.marBdancin --> L.marBinVegas

Paige --> Paige In The Cage
(courtesy of Miss Joey)

Just thought I would let all of your know. Plus if you get bored and would like to send me something good for my birthday, gifts are always welcome. As well as Birthday wishes! For all of those that know my old fart Lamar ;-) his b-day is the 15th! Send him something good. He needs some loving..lol (**Free cuddles**) lol

I am sure I will have lots of new pics to post when I get back from Vegas. Well hopefully they are innocent enough to be on the internet. You never know what will happen with 9 girls and 3 guys. Don't you wish you were one of those guys?

Just a caution, first, if you call and I don't make sense, I am in VEGAS, put two and two together. Second if you get a drunken phone call, although it might be me calling to say HI, it could also be one of my ladies going through my phone. So let me apologize ahead of time! SORRY! Hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend.

I am hoping we don't have any run-ins with the police. No alcohol poisoning. No marriages! And just a lot of good, safe, crazy nights with alcohol and dancing our bottoms off!

Anyhow seeing that Birthdays have to be one of my favorite holidays I thought I would let you all know what is going on! If you want birthday wishes back, let me know when you're b-day is, I am pretty good about that!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

DONE!

I figured it was only appropriate to have my first random thought be about college graduation! I am finally done, at 10 AM this morning I finished the last final that I may ever take in my life. It was definitely the last one of my college career and after 18+ years of school, I can honestly say, I NEED A BREAK! And so break it will be, partying and hanging out for the next couple days or however long my body can handle it.

3 weeks ago I was soo excited to graduate and move back to California, but as it gets closer, it gets harder. There are many people in Colorado that I consider good friends, however I fear that that may not be true forever. We often have problems with out of sight, out of mind. I know I am better than most at that, but it takes two to tango. I guess I am saying, give those old friends a call once and a while, you never know what friendships can be rekindled. My best friend from 6th grade moved out here this semester and needless to say the past 6 weeks have been an absolute blast as well as totally insane. Some random guy that I met at a club a couple years ago, is now one of my good friends and will be here for graduation in a couple hours. THANKS JAY! There are many other familar faces that I don't always talk to, but it is always nice to see em, esp. all my club pimps (you know who you are). I guess that would make me a club rat or something like that. College graduation is all about starting a new chapter in your life, just don't forget about the old ones. I will come back to Colorado to visit and party like we used to, as long as all my CO buddies promise to visit me in the Bay Area!

I am looking forward to hanging out with old friends in California. It will be odd being back at my parents house, but it shouldn't be that bad if you know my family. I guess the whole point of this is that I love all my friends and whether you are near or far, I will miss you and you better keep in contact.

Thanks for being GREAT FRIENDS! :~)
